The enormous appropriations for highway work already made by state and municipalities—appropriations that total more than one billion dol- lars: according to the most reliable |reports covering bond iseues and di- ‘rect’levies for road building and road maintenance, presage, it is believed, an unprecedented volume of road- building for 1921. The sum of $271,- jpropriated by eight states recently, |a(lded to bond issues passed by eight lother states since 1918, makes $543,- 800,000 already work in sixteen states. available thru Federal aid are placed at $160,000,000 by officials of the available for road Funds still!

Hours had been spent, al- so strength and temper, and the desired article had not been found. . I dsked if a try had been made at such and such a store. . f The reply was: “No, o/f course not, they don’t car- ry such things.” I disagreed. We went to- gether and found what was wanted. 4 ‘she said: My Friend said: “How did ‘you know?” “Easy,” I replied. “They advertised them last week.” i Without seeing the joke, “I never have time to read advertise- ments. I'm too busy.” Perhaps you are, too. Many people are too busy to take time to save time, trouble and money.

It| is assumed that the advertised apple| lived up to the reputation Eve had claimed for it and that Adam there- after became an habitual apple-eater.
