Tho automobile Is becoming n very Important factor In tho movement for better roads. Every nuto owner, bo ho farmer or city man, Is n booster for better roads, but tho city man Is prob ably more impatient with our present roads than the farmer. In our polit ical llfo the farmer has nlwnys been tho conservative whllo tho city mnn hns been the radical, the progressive. It tnkes the two factions to bring Good Road in Iowa. about well balanced political condi tions; one Is ns much needed as tho other. Since the road supervisors at their last annual meeting took tho stand they were not In favor of paving coun try roads nt the present at least, they have been rather severely censured by the dally press and told that they are behind the times, railing In the dust. That hard roads of some kind will be built throughout tho country some time cannot bo questioned, nnd tho supervisors recognized that fact when they said that they were not in favor of loading the counties down with road debts ut the present time. We are Inclined to commend tho su pervisors for the stand they took, be cause there Is danger of going too fast with expensive methods of construc tion until the different kinds of ronda that are practicable for different lo calities have been more fully tested, says Farmer and Breeder. Mistakes mado In permanent road construction are Huble to be rather expensive. Iowa has made rapid progress in road Improvement during tho past two years, and while no permanent roads have been built tho work qf grading and draining at least two principal roads through each county and the construction of cement culverts nnd bridges Is something that will have to be done everywhere before permanent roads can possibly be built. Then, too, In many sections at least, when out roads aro brought to a grade, are well drained, and then properly cured for with the road drag, they become very passable Indeed. Wo believe that it Is? not a bad plan to use them for a few years in that condition and give the drag n good chance to show what it will do for them when used as fre quently us It should be. BUILDING MORE GOOD ROADS Enormous Increase In Total Expendi tures for Highways and Con struction of Bridges. "There lias been an enormous In crease In the total expenditures for road building und bridge construction marking the development of highway work in the United States during tho pnst 12 months," said J. A. Itountree, secretary of tho United States Good Roads association. "Statistics complied nnd reports re celved at the headquarters of the Unit I'd States Qood Roads association show that the expenditures for tho building of good roads and bridges for tho year 101B were $282,000,000, or an Increase of 250 per cent over the amount spent for stmllnr purposes In 10M. In ad dition, more than $27,000,000 of local funds were spent under stato super vision In 1015, bringing tho total road and bridge expenditures managed by tho states to $80,51-1,090. This amount Is greater than the total expenditures for roads and bridges from all sources In 1004." Galvanized Iron Culverts. Tho cost of high-grade, pure Iron galvanized culverts is not more than 10 per cent higher than ordinary steel, and experts claim tho life of tho pure Iron to be many times thut of ordinary steel.

Ml U I y I SPECIAL WAR MEDAL ISSUED 8llver and Bronze Piece Commemo rateo Entrance of the United States Into the War. A medal to commcmornto tho cn trnnco of tho United Stntcs Into the war and Its European alliances for the preservation of democracy has been Is sued by tho American Numlsmntlc so ciety. It was designed by Ell Harvey, tho sculptor, nnd depicts tho white headed eaglo of North America, popu larly called tho bald eagle, perched on n crag with wings outstretched nnd head thrown back, In tho nttltudo of readiness for instant attnek upon Its foo. Tho only Inscription Is tho date, "April G, 1017," the day that President Wilson proclaimed' tho exlstenco of a stnto of war. Tho Issuo was limited to COO copies, CO In silver and tho others In bronze. All have been subscribed for and It wns stipulated that n mem ber could tnko only one medal. In selecting the design, the commit tee says, It was thought that tho bald eaglo shown naturally was" moro ox p'resslvo of tho spirit of tho country thnn tho heraldic eagle usually de picted on tho -United Stntcs coinage. Congress on .Tune 20, 1762, ndoptcd the bald eagle as the emblem for the nrms and great seal of tho nation. Tho scnl has always shown tho eaglo treated In n semlhernldlc manner with tho shield on the breast. In tho colnngo designs there has been a greater variety. Tho first coinage showed an eagle with out stretched wings, very simply executed. A few yenrs later a conventional eaglo hampered by a shield was substituted.

Lyndonvllle, Vt. m CLASSIC LEARNING MADE PAY Professor's Acquaintance With tho Language Enabled Him to Squelch Shine Shop Comment Tho Professor's Greek Is tho Greek of Homer nnd Plndnr, as far as tho professor's studies have enabled lura to get It; but ho enn Bpenk It well enough, nnd enough llko tho modern Idiom, to mnko himself understood in bootblack shops. Ho has oven trav eled through Greece with It nnd got along fnlrly well. Tho professor's salary Is no larger than other professors' salaries ; or per haps he Is n war economist. At any rato, the slzahlo feet nt tho ends of his muscular young legs nro encased In very ancient half-soled shoes. Tho other morning ho stopped on Sixth avenue, muses n Now York cor respondent, to hnvo theso shoes shlncd up. The Greok boyB wcro full of gin ger; they wcro swapping Jokes on their patrons In their nntlve tongue. "A tightwad," or Its equlvnlent, snld the professor's servitor to tho others. "A miser. Probably a wlfe-bentcr too" and went on to discuss tho profes sor's outwnrd aspect In detail. "Look at these shabby shoes," was his pero ration. And then tho professor spoke Greek. "If I lifted my foot to your face," he said suavely, "perhaps you could seo them still better." "I had to pay the cashier," says tho professor telling tho story. "Tho boy was out of tho shop and about three blocks up tho avenue, bIIH running. Tho shop was strangely silent. Somo day I must go In thcro again nnd Ilnd out If that boy came back." Attention of Mr. Garfield. It was on tho Northwestern car lino. The windows wcro covered with frost, nnd the solo contents of tho stovo con sisted of a broken broom handle and sovcral burnt mutches, muses tho In dianapolis News. Suddenly a coal wagon loomed up squarely on tho track ahead. The brakes held and tho gong clanged, but tho coal wagon did not leave tho track. Moro clanging was to no avail, and then tho car began to gather headway. A gentle bump at tracted tho nttcntlon of all tho pas sengers, who looked forward Just in time to seo tho motormnn reach out of his window arid rapidly trunsfer sev eral big lumps of perfectly good Ken tucky coal to his bin. Warned by tho bump, tho drlvVr got tho wagon off tho track, and tho car proceeded under half speed whllo the inotorraan flred up his stove. By tho tlmo Washington street wns reached tho car was fairly comfortable. Boring for Oklahoma Oil.
