In a recent address,' given before the North Atlantic Highway Officials' Association, Bernard E. Gray ofthe Asphalt Institute, explained a practical method for widening highways that should be of interest to all states. The method is simply to place a thin layer of gran ular material, such as sand or gravel, over the shoulder, apply a k asphalt, and mix them together in the same manner as an oil processed road mix. The final finish is obtained with a blade grader, traffic soon insures complete compaction, and a compara tively small amount of money has been spent. Methods such as this have been used with great success in California, for example, where the shoulders are re ally part of the pavement itself. It is perfectly safe to turn out on them at high speeds, thus making possible the full use of the road with greater safe ty and an increase in capacity. In case the definite addition of new pavex ment is required, asphalt is cut-bac- at Tremonton, Utan, Published rnarsday 01 each on eek.

Another learned British jurist, Sir Thomas Edward Scrulton, reversed the opinion of Justice McCardie, who is a bachelor, saying: "If there is to be a discussion ot the proper relations of husband and wife I think it had better come from judges who have more than a theoretical knowledge of such relations." The opinion that a British wife owns and can control herself is startling, in England, where until recently there had been no change in the ruling that said that a husband might beat his wife providing he used a stick no bigger round than his thumb. The Filipinos, preparing for the day of "deliverance" from the United States, plan to buy out Japanese land owners. They say Japanese owners . are willing to sell. However, it might not be a good bay for the Filipinos, If they are really to be delivered from Uncle Sam's cruel able.

The learned Justice McCardie decided against him, saying, among other things : "I must tell you that a woman's body does not belong to the husband. It is her own property; it is not his. A woman can leave her husband by her own free will. She may choose her own occupation. She may take her own political party. She may profess her own separate creed. She may decide whether she will bear children or not, and she may decide when each child shall be born. The married woman has gained her freedom." i IOAP Jwmnc IS Is ashamed to remain in it.

It is, on the face of it, at tractive. The only thing wrong with it is that it dosen't work. As a matter of fact, it is really not a theory at all. Jt has been tried in a long list of cities, from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from Canada to the .Gulf.
