HELP SAVE YOUR ROADS

The coming of spring weakens the roads as the frost comes out of the ground. As the frost melts, the moisture SaturateS the mater ial under the road and weakens it seriously.
 Under traffic, the roads break up, mudholes and ruts develop and water stands in the ruts, causing further softening, so even the best of roads may go to pieces.
 A few weeks of care at this time means the difference be- tween good or bad roads after they dry out.
 Remember these are your roads and if you do your part in stay ing off them until they are thoroughly dry, you can be as- sured of better driving pleasure.
 In the near future the Alaska Road Commission will begin to open the local roads.
 The Sunset Road has been opened as far as the Snake River bridge. The Nome-Solomon Road is in process of being opened.
 Use of these roads is prohibited to the public, except in an emer- gency, until the road bed is sui ficiently dry for travel, at which time notification will be given.
 Other roads will be cleared in consecutive order and the public will be informed through means of the local radio station and newspaper.

HIGK SCHOOL NOTES

Today is the birthday of an- other great American. John James Audubon was born on April 27, l785 and became a famous stu dent of birds. His love of birds was marked even early in child. hood.
 Audubon made daily excursions into the woods and returning later with drawings of birds. So good were his drawings that his step mother sent him to study under the great French artist David. Ia his late teens Audubon returned to America to his fathers estate in Philadelphia. Here he made his first experiments in 'tbird band ing" He discovered that pair of peWees which he marked, re- turned after their annual migra- ton, to nest near the place of their birth.
 Students in English I are study ing biographies, autobiographies, pronouns and words.
 Geometry students are study ing ratio and proportion in simi- lar polygons. They have also had supplementary work with trigo- nometric ratios of the tangent, sine and cosine. Practical prob lems used in surveying have vital ized the study.
 Mercury, the planet closest to the sun, has truly been moving rapidly. In less than a months time it has moved from it's most easteJy position in it's orbit, called eastern elongation, to inferior con- junction with the sun. That means it has moved one-fourth around in its orbit.
 The brilliant, visible planet in the evening western sky is Venus. 1t was at perigee, which means closest to the sun on Wednesday.
