At the peak of construction, high as 41 miles of standard 18 foot inland cement concrete pavement is being constructed each week and believed that this rate would tve been maintained if not in- leased, had not the rail strike, coal [rike, cement and coal shortages in- [rvened. In spite or these handicaps, n miles of pavement was construct- during the year, which is a world's scord in mileage of pavement com- peted in any one year by any one ite. Another world's record was broken fren one of the State's contractors Ud 1,583 feet of standard 18 foot jrtland cement concrete pavement in be day's single run of ten hours. Resolutions were passed recently by ie State Board of Highway Advisors commending a $ 1.00,000,000 Road fcond Issue to be voted in a general lection in 1924. Plan Trunk Line Roads The proposed Road Bond issue, the >ard explains, would provide for the >mpletion of the present Bond Issue rstem and in addition thereto* 2,500 3,000 miles of trunk line roads. 'The demand throughout the state >r the construction of hard surfaced >ads has never been more urgent tan at the present time," the board's ^solution states. "The bond issue rould be met by state automobile icense ^ees.- -â€"•- Previous Issue Insufficient 'It is evident, due to the increased >st of construction during the past >ur years, that iho Sixty Million Dol- tr Road Bond Issue voted by the keople of the State in 1918 is not loing to be sufficient to complete the (,800 miles as proposed in that sys- »m by at least 1,000 miles," the reso- ltion further states, "and a conserv- ative estimate of the automobile 11- ?nse fees to be paid into the State reasary in the next~thirtyâ€"yearsTtneri' classrlO ar ra^Adyanced-elassr lj>. m.___ ____ This work is not, an many suppose; a preparation for public speaking Invite Women to Classes in Speaking, Self-Expression All the women of the community are invited to join the classes in ef fective speaking and self-expression to be conducted by Miss Maud Miner at the Wilmette Woman's club, begin- ning Tuesday, February 6.
