The session had concluded its regular business when the president asked for suggestions |for the betterment of the community jor the organization. ~ rj| There followed a brief address by one of the business men present, on _jthe need of better roads for Sioux City and vicinity.

In the year 1918 it is being wrecked by aviators of Wilhelm, the Hun. There is no excuse for the German action, but that Padua is close to the trench lines and asy to reach. Padua is not a fortified city. There are no great military factories there. It is a church town and a university town, filled with famous ol¢ ecclesiastical buildings and with works of art. The photograpk above, from the tlalian embassy at Washington, shows a Padua mother and her children looking at their “German-kultured” home.

The ;peaker called atiention to the ‘act that the subject of good roads, asneciafly in agricultural — sections, was/réceiving considerable attention from the federal government; that though the city had built 20 miles of concrete thoroughfares, it w still far behind its neighbor cities. Automobile transportation was the serious prodlem for the community to; solve, it was pointed out. Location of the city among a score of hills meant mud at one time and dust at another. The automobdile highway was essential tothe life of Sioux City. Up- on such roads depended the city’s holding trade in home territo There were five roads leading into the city from as many directions and | these roads should be paved. These ideas were approved but in! the discussion that followed, it devei | oped the city had not ds with | which to undertake the project. Be- | fore the meeting adjourned a commit-! tee was appointed to find a solution of | the problem. | The plan finally suggested was to get authority to establish zones along | the proposed route in accordance with which abutting and neighboring pro- perty would pay its share of expense proportionate to Yenefits derived. | The committee called a conference | at which both the county and citizens at large had representatives. The con- | ference approved the zone plan ‘which | also provided that not to exceed 50 per cent of the costs of the highway in a given district might be raised by a general tax levy on the city. City council approved the plan with the result that an attorney was retained which are located on or near their} farms. There is little doubt, accord-/ | farmers will join in the attack on the| barberry “It is likely to be a case of bar- man, “and it is quite apparent that most people think more of bread than they do of barberries. At best bar-| berry is a second rate ornamental} shrub which should have been re- placed by something more beautiful and less destructive long ago.” North vakota is in advance of Min- nesota in the campaign against the barberry, having destroyed nearly all the barberry bushes in the state sev- eral years ago. It is expected by those in charge of the campaign against the plant that farmers and townspeople throughout the state will come to’ their aid in the work by removing the bar- berry hedges in an éffort to increase the number of available bushels of erain produced during the coming sea- son.

There was no privation. but the peo- | Ple were being deprived of a good deal they had been taught to regard as the essentials of a comfortable existence There was no lack of abundant food the people. and no prospect of such deficiency, Dut there was a tendency to grumble at restrictions. “The people face big things” con- tinued the premier, “but get worried over small ones.
