For four centuries there have been dispute and disagreement as to the first landing place of Columbus in the new world. It is known that he land- ed on one of the Bahama islands, but in that widely-scattered group there are 36 pleces of land, large enough to be classified as islands, and about 700 “cays” or “keys,” like those which lie along the Klorida coast, and in some cases pretty well out to sea. The early narratives have it that Colum- bus landed at or on a place which the native Indians called Guanahani, and which the Spaniards named San Sal- vador, or Holy Saviour. Cat island has been given as the landing place of Columbus and so has Watling is- land. lowing an operation, and stayed with | which Columbus ealled San Salvador, relatives for two weeks while con- valescing.

(Prepared by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture) The many requirements for safety will furnish a variety of topics for school children’s essays and oral dis- cussion, The dangers of railrond | crossings at grade, the economic jus- | tification for abpelishing them, the fm- and down the ‘truck as a vehcle | | approaches, and the disadvantage of sharp turns, etc, are suggestive subjects. Similarly there might also be mentioned the questions raised by | | street intersections and turns. In | every town there are many crossings where the auteist’s view is unnec- or buildings; or where sharp curves | | with limited visibility invite serious accidents. Guideposts, markers, and other signs for the most eflicient guid- ance of traffic through thickly settled | | communities also are part of the | bigger and more inclusive topics of | the economic importance of safety and | guidance—the actual money value of human life and of accident preventicn. Another question, in solving which | | the help of enlightened public opinion (and this enlightenment should start in the public schools), is that of the | relation of the public highways to railroads und canals, The advantage | of long hauls by rail and short hauls by motor truck; feeding into main terminal points by radiating systems of highways; a division of the trans- portation burden by parallel systems of water, rail, and road transporta- tion, are some of the subdivisions of | this general heading. This listing of topics is not intended to be complete or exact, but merely suggestive. Those which refer to con- struction could best be utilized when | other topies may be studied from maps, of which the students might be | required to make tracings or free-hand | sketches ~ showing the particular State highway depart- | ments often feel the need of a better | popular understanding of the problems | of road construction, and their ofiicials | manner. Looking ahead, it is casy to | see an actual shortage of men qualified to carry on the work of highway de- velopment, so rapid is the growth of the good-rouds movement. Highway in- | Small Boy's Method of Crossing a | Stream. struction in high schools offers oppor- tunity to state highway depar(ments | to develop a body of future cltizens | equipped with a better understanding | of the need for roads, and the problems likely to be met m building them, and, | at the same time, to stimulate interest in the profession of highway engineer- | ing. State departments and county engl- neers can help teachers (1) by assign- | ing members of their staffs to deliver | occasional lectures, simple in text and | illustrated with lantern | slides; (2) by furnishing photogruphs | i of highways and construction work for | | classroom or reference use; @) by a ting teachers in the explanation | s which can be in- | s of students, Mnny} states also issue bulletins or reports which are valuable for reference. ‘ Determine Road Cost. ‘ Some of the things which determine ! the cost of road construction are: Cost of right of way; cost of clear- ing and grubbing; amount and kind of materinl to be excavated and amount of filling to be done; amount of ditching for surface drainage and tiling for sub-drainage; number and size of stream crossings necessitating culverts or bridges; cost of securing | and placing material Indorsed by President. The Lee highway project has been' Indorsed by President Harding as an appropriate memorial to the southern leader, born in Virginia 114 years ago. Cost of Maintenance. The annual cost of road mainte- nance in New York state, which in- cludes merely the lighter repairs, ag- | gregates about $3,500,000. Paved Too Thin.

Of the many fossils which have come out of the mountains and plains of the West, few have excited wfder found in rocks of the Miocene period, in northwestern Nebraska. They ure usually white, and stand out cleafly against the bluff background of the rock which incloses thems often at- taining a length of 15 feet, with many twists and turns, ending at times in a rge bulb, with occaslonal side passages. When first discovered It was thought that these gigantie “cork- screws” were huge petrified vines or roots of some strange plant. Study of the “corkscrews,” however, falled to reveal any traces of plant structure. Later the skeleton of an animal like the badger was found in a large bulb near the end of the “corkscrew,” and | . bones of & small camel and small deer were found in others, After that it was discovered that many of them contained bones of a small burrowing | animal about the size of the western prairle dog. Exeavation of actual re- cent praivle dog burrows, after filling them with thin plaster of paris, showed an finteresting fuct; the bur- rows of the praivie dog and the pre- historie “corkscrews” were closely similar, The mystety is considered | solved.
