How to Get Good Roads
When Caesar took a westward rldo
And grabbed tho Gauls for Rome,
What was tho first thing that ho did
To make thorn fool at homo?
Did ho lncreaso tho people's loads,
And liberty forbid?
No, ho dug in and built good roads
That's what old Caosar did.
Did Caesar put tho Iron heel
Upon tho focmnn's breast
Or did ho try to make them feel
That Roman's rule was host?
What did ho do to make them glad
Ho camo their lands amid?
Ho built good roads In placo of bad
That's what old Caesar did.
Ho built good roads from hill to hill,
Good roads from valo to valo:
Ho ran a good road movement
Till old Romo got all tho kalo.
He told tho folks to buy at home,
Build roads tholr ruts to rid,
Until all roads led up to Rome
That's what old Caesar did.
If any town would mako Itself
Tlio rnnlnr nf the man.
Whoro folks will como and settle down
And Hvo in plonty's lap;
If any town Its own abodes
Of nnvnrtv would rid.
Lot It go out and build good roads--
Just like old unesar uiu.

Tho Psychology of Practico.
The (mention of short versus lontt
periods of practice In training tho hu
man muscles for any particular kind
of work la obviously one having far
reaching nnpllentiiui. Somu Interesting
experiment) on this subject have boiii
carried out by Dr. K. S Laahlov of
Johns Hopkins university. Acquisition
of skill In arclicry was selected as tne
subject of observation. Twenty un
trained persons were divided into threo
groups. One group shot live arrows
with the English longbow per day;
another twenty shots per day and tho
third forty shots. The result showed
conclusively that the group shooting
only live times a day Improved In ac
curacy with loss expenditure of time
In practice than was required by either
of the other groups for the same
amount of Improvement. A report on
the experiments says: "The relntlvelv
greater elllcleney of short periods of
practice continuing for mnny days Is In
accordance with tho results' of the
ntudy of animals and of speech habits
In mnn'nnd Indicates that In training
to muscular feats, In botb.'anlmnls and
men, the length of practice periods re
quired Is usually too great, for max
imum efficiency." Philadelphia Rec
