The November meeting of the

heme of Mrs. . Will Banning, with
Mrs. Ray Frans and Miss Nell
Bramblet" as assistants. Lovely re
freshments were served.
Mrs. Cross was the leader of the
topic "Christian Citizenship." This
is a topic that really has a lot to it
for much general-' concern is felt
over our present and future gener
ations. The three great institutions
are the home, the church and the
school. The home should come first
for it is there the child forms its
first impressions and instincts and
these grow to habits whether good
or evil. The church and school should
go hand in hand, guiding and inspir
ing our youth to make them better
citizens, for that nation is great
whose citizens are great.
The December meeting will be
with Mrs. Mougey as leader of the
subject, "Temperance and Missions."
The invitation is open for anyone de
siring to become a member. Reports
of the state convention were also
given.

Gets Highways
in Proportion
State Engineer Cochran Denies That
State Road System Favors
Any One District.
Complaint voiced by an Omaha
newspaper that state highways havo
been improved in Nebraska witu
Lincoln, the capital city, as a hur,
rather than having them radiate
from Omaha is declared by State En
gineer Cochran to be without good
foundation.
"The public works department is
doing its best to , provide good high
ways for the whole state, rather than
for any one section or city. ' said Mr.
Cochran, "and we believe that the
results will show this is bc-'ng ac
complished.
"There are-two main factors gov
erning the highways, both of v?"icli
are fixed by law, and it is not
the power of the state engineer, ever
if he were so disposed, to take frcr.-.
one part of the state what it is en
titled to and give it some other por
tion. "First, the highway routes them
selves are designed by act of the
lefijslature. Only minor chnnges can
be made iu them, such as straighten
ing or moving short stretches of road
to avoid track crossings or elimin
ate other bad conditions. In general
every highway is where it is because
the legislature said it should go
there.
"Second, the money spent on the
various highways is divided in the
manner specified by statute. One
third of the total sum available for
construction is apportioned on the
basis of county area, one-third on the
basis of population, and one-third
on the basis of mileage of prat-roads
in the county. Money belonging to'
to one couity cannot be taken from
it and given to another.
"Maintenance funds are not sub
ject to this division. They are used
as the law directs, to keep complet
ed highways in good shape. Natur
ally, the most money goes for main
tenance where it is needed, on dirt
and graveled roads. Paved roads do
not require so much upkeep, and less
is spent on them. I
The road map of Nebraska shows
good paved and graveled roads lead
ing into Omaha from the north, west
and south. As Omaha is on the east
ern boundary line of the state, its
geographical location does not per
mit its being a 'hub' for this state.

in the same sense that Lincoln, Fre

rice and other interior cities are.
But it has its share of the highways
that have been built, and we are
expecting to get another route or
two leading to Omaha opened up
in the near future.
"Lincoln people in the past have
made complaints to this office, simi
lar to those now heard at Omaha.
They thought we were not improv
ing the highways to the capital as
fast as we should. The fact is, as
I stated befoie, that we are trying
to build highways for the entire
state, and not to help any particu
lar community. If anyone is dis
satisfied with the location of high
ways or the way the money is dis
tributed he should make his com

U. S. GOVERNMENT REFUND
MYSTIFIES STATE AUDITOR
Lincoln, Nov. 14 The United
States government has made a 10 per
cent refund to the state of Nebraska
on two small checks recently sent
to Washington in payment of war
rants that had been registered some
time ago. but State Auditor Johnson
is at a loss to know why.
The warren ts, drawn against
funds of the University of Nebraska
were for maps supplied by the Inter
ior department to the geological sur
vey of this state.
Although he doesn't know what
it's all about, Mr. Johnson said he
would accept the refund.
Little Aguadulce, Panama, has a
building boom, and all structures
erected are of concrete and brick.
