X. Moore in the MoClusky 2 Gazette) One thousand nine hundred and forty-nine years ago there wasn’t any August — this month was known as Sextillis. The name was changed to August in honor of the first emperor of Rome whose name was Carus Jul- jus Caesar Octavianus Augustus—he was a son of Julius Caesar’s youngest sister’s daughter, Julia and was adopted by Caesar as a son and heir and after Caesar was assassinated Augustus came to Rome and de- manded Caesar's property from Mark Anthony—and got it—after quite a bit of hesitation. Augustus was per- haps the first new dealer, although & trifle more vigorous than the new dealers of now. The first thing he did when he got to be party boss was to kill off three hundred senators and two thousand knights of the opposi- tion party which wasn’t as expensive as a long campaign to throw them out of office and it gave the adminis- tration a free hand. After getting rid of his opponents Augustus started a lot of WPA projects and federal high- ways. The old Roman highway depart- ment wasn’t like the N. D. highway department. Here the government stops the money if the roads are no good, but in ancient Rome if the highway superintendent built a bum highway ‘his head was cut right off and they got a man who could build @ road to suit the higher-ups. The old Romans were very serious about road building. Most of the WPA projects were directed towards beau- Men who get drunk at comingout parties this year will find themselves biecklisted and not invited again— Miss Mildred Chapman, New York. se 2 Nothing like | SO THEY SAY James P.
