IS LAUDED (. G. Nichols Addresses Men's| Bible Class Schools and Banks Will Observe Holiday Tomorrow — Bowling Teague Matches Scheduled—East | Berlin News and Other Items, The off the Connecticut | state highway department are proud | of their efficient work in this state,” declared C. G. Nichols of highway department and president of the National Exchange clubs, at the meeting of the Men's Bible class of the Berlin Congregational church last evening in the Com- munity hall. The speaker declared state highway department equipped with the necessary means to do efficient work on the state highways. At the present time there are 2,000 miles of paved highways in Coanecticut which, If laid together in one straight line, would reach as r as Richmond, Virginla. The ward roads cover about 3,000 miles of territory in the state, he said. Mr. Nichols said that the highway | department received about $2,000 to work with when the department was first organized. This had to be used for the whole year's work. Now the department receives at least $10,000,000 a year. Most of this; money comes from the motor ve- Eicle department. The department was at first con- cerned only with the care of the state highways, the speaker con- tinued. The fleld of labor has been | increased and bridges, landscape and the removal of snow in the win- ter time has been added to the duties. Each county and district has a supcrintendent in charge, and this provides for efticient work. During the winter these superintendents live a snow clearing gang on the highways as soon as the snow gets three inches deep. These men can be put to work at an halt hour's notice. At times the laborers have worked 24 hours steadily, and some- times have been known to work 36 hours without a astop, in order to clear the roads, [he speaker has been a member of the state highway department for the last 21 years. He is the national president of the Exchange club: Speaking about the clubs, the speak- er declared that the purpose of the Jixchange clubs is to accomplish some improvement in clvic affairs and to be of service to the com- 1unity, The Exchange membership totals 25,000 and extends all ove the country.
