Show BIG ROAD BUILDING PROGRAM AHEAD. Fifteen to twenty years of building good roads lie ahead of the United States. Under the program which the country has adopted there will be built, during that time, 180,000 miles of improved highways which will constitute the Federal-ai- d highway system and an equal or greater mileage of state and local roads. When the great job is done, the transportation facilities of the country will far exceed those of any other nation, past or present, in the world. The highways of the ancient Romans, whose fame has come down through the centuries, will pale by comparison. Details of this vast program are to be placed before the Highway Education Board at its conference in Washington October 26 to 28, inclusive, by State Highway Engineers and officials of the Bureau of Public Roads, United States Department of Agriculture, to whom has been entrusted the work of planning and supervising the construction of Federal-ai- d highways. The plan will be presented to enable the board to proceed authoritatively with its lvork of devising aids for schools and colleges to of the country are which turning for competent highway engiroad-buildin- g road-builde- rs neers. : i ! Officials of the bureau place the agprogregate cost of the Federal-aigram alone at about $3,000,000,000, period. spread over the twenty-yea- r They base this estimate on an average cost of $17,000 per mile. The average cost, in turn, takes into consideration all classes of improved roadways from the cheapest to the most expensive types. Approximately of the proposed system, or 60,000 miles of improved highways, al. ready are either built or building. The program is a new one. Up to comparatively recent years, in the United States had been conducted without special regard to a national system. Highways had been constructed where needed without considering whether they would link up in the most effective manner with the whole network of roads to be spread over the nation. Engineers had sought more to meet immedate and local ded New roads will be planned and built thousands of miles of them where they will . fit in most advantageously with the entire program. The bureau is continuing its research work into most efficient methods of road building, including the character and wearing power of materials, resisting qualities of varying subsoils, etc., and has amassed a considerable store of valuable information all of which will be available for the highway engineer of tomorrow, whom the board is seeking to have educated in practical and modern methods. WHY NOT7 that had been torn by the little foxes of discontent and bitterness. This was brought to mind by the recent announcement that Edgar Lee Masters, one of the foremost writers of this country, and his wife, Helen Jenkins Masters, have decided after three years of separation that they will accord mutual forgiveness and live together again. Such a reconciliation may and should have a beneficial influence upon others who are inclined to fret themselves into a fury over the vexations of like, and seek escape through the courts. It was a wise judge who prescribed absence as a cure. o THE FLOWER LANGUAGE. A few weeks ago the presiding judge in a divorce trial sentenced a man and wife to a six months separation. He went on the principle that in many cases of incompatibility there wras simply a frazzling of nerves through too close and continued contact, and separation for a few months would be a good tonic. It is one of the. most reasonable solutions of the difficult problem. It would give both parties time to think the matter over without the presence of the annoying element, and what is more, there would be naturally a recurrence to the memories of the farther off, happier days, when life promised richness through marriage. Not in all, but in some cases there would be a renewal of neglected and forgotten vows and an honest endeavor to restore to health those vines Pink carnation Fascination. Carnation Conscious modesty.

The present Federal-aiing program, officials of the bureau state, will contemplate the construction of only such roads as fit into the national program and contribute to the national system. At the same time the roads will be so selected as to serve the most important local requirements. With marked modifications, the system adopted in building the railways of the country will be borne in mind in the construction of the countrys new highways. There will be main lines of highway communication between centers and thousands of miles of feeder roads, reaching back into the more sparcely settled regions and into the rich agricultural sections, to tap areas whose population and products will flow over the new system.
