HAS HEAVY ROAD BULDING PLAN AHEAD (Continued from ®age 1) to the national system. At the same time the roads will be so selected as to serve the most important loeal re- quirements. With marked identifi- cations, the system -adopted in the building of the railways of the coun- try will be borne in mind in the con- struction of the country’s new high- ways- There will be main lines of highway communication between cen- ters and thousands of miles of feed- er roads, reaching back into the more sparsely settled regions and into the rich agricultural sections, to tap areas whose population ar‘d products will flow over the new systems. New roads ilill be planned and built—thousands of miles of them— where they wil fit most advantageous- ly with the entire program. The bu- reau is continuing its research work into the most efficient methods of road building, including the charac- ter and wearing power of materials, resisting qualities of various sub- soils, ete., and has amassed a consid- erable store of valuable information al of which will be available for the highway engineer of tomorrow, whom the Board is seeking to have educated in practical and modern methods.

HAD STUDIED HIS SUBJECT Little Bobby’s Essay Showed He Knew Practically All There Was to Know About Doors. Little Bobby Jones was told to write an essay on “Door,” and the effort which he sent in was as follows: “Most houses have all the doors that they need, and no house is com- plete without at least one. The twe main differences between a door and a gate Is: first, their opposite loca- tion; and, second, that people have much less respect for a gate, and would rather kick it than knock on it. « “But a gate is more useful than a door because it does everything that a door can do, and, besides that, it can be climbed over, and often is. “The door handle is a small but im- portant part of the door which peo- ple never appreciate until it comes off. Most people never notice the door handle unless it is brought to thelr notice on account of having jam spread all over it. “Doors are great things to give peo- more if it wasn't for the keyholes.”— Exchange, Her Curiosity. The audience held its breath with amazement as the acrobat swung high above the rostrum, held only by a frail cord looped around one foot. Somewhere among the spectators a little girl arose from her - seat. “Mama,” she shouted, breaking “the silence, “can you do that?” . The lady tried to quiet her, but the child persisted in demanding whether or not her mother had ever climbed ropes or done anything of this sort. At last, embarrassed by the attention ‘which the child was attracting, the mother jerked the child into the seat, warning, “You just walt until I get home!” . “Oh!” exclaimed the little disturber, “then your gonna try it?"—Judge.

' Post Office Department Regulations | ple privacy, and would give them still ! tructori; LETTER MAY BE RECALLED Mak Provision for Withdrawal From the Mails. Have you ever written a letter, mailed it in a corner box- or in your local postoffice and then changed your | mind? asks a Postoffice department bulletin. Have you ever lain awake all night wishing you had ithe letter back again ‘and thinking ‘that; “hav- ing once mailed it, there was no chance of recalling it? If you have had such'an experience doen'’t let it worry you in the future, for under the postal laws and regula- tions it is.a comparatively easy matter for you to get the letter back into your own hands. 4 All you have to do is to go to your local postmaster and explain to him that you want ‘to withdraw your letter from the mails. The postmaster must comply with your request, providing you can furnish proofs that you are the sender of the missive. These proofs consist of giving an accurate description of the letter you wish to get back as well as presentjng to the postmaster a sample of your hand- writing, which must be identical with that on the original. letter. The rules of the Postoffice depart- ment also permit postmasters to tele- .graph to the railway mail clerk and get him to take a recalled letter out | of a mail pouch after it has left the vity on the way to its destination. This measure to secure the return of a let- ter is only taken, however, in extreme emergencies. " Ancestry of Birds. Evolutionists believe that man arose from the basic stock that produced the apes.The ancestry of birds can be retraced still farther to none other than the lowly reptile. Fossil birds, to which ‘we must look for our evi- dence, are almost as scarce as fossil men. Extjnct reptiles and mammals bave been preserved for us in abun- dance, but the very power of flight, which raised the bird above its rep- tilian ancestors, has done much to cheat us of avian remains. Cumbrous, awkward creatures, without this mag- ic gift, chance caught in sticky pitch or the treacherous mud of some la- goon, are unable to escape its grip. But the light-bodied, quick-winged bird I Seldom trapped In such a way.
