Â¥ i be ak h H Permanent highways can only be built with a proper equipâ€" ment and after the subgrade has been‘ allowed time enough to settle. The contractor should have a igood, long record of exâ€" perierice and a reputation at stake. The type of pavement laid should have a time tested service record at a low maintenance cost. ® e < _â€"_ All over the country, state highways, market roads and city streets that were not built by compéetent engineers, are breaking up under heavy traffic and in a few years have to be rebuilt.. . With states, cities and counties spending hundreds of milâ€" lions of dollars on permanent paving, the taxpayers are learning that they cannot afford cheap and imperfect construction. They find that it is always at their expense (that so called cheap conâ€" st:élction by incompetent and inexperienced contractors is carâ€" ried on. ie There is a growing tendency to pay more attention to scienâ€" tific highway construction. The initial surveying work to secure the best location for a road must be: backed up by sound engiâ€" neering'{>rinciple§ applied‘ to the construction of the hard surâ€" face itself.

Ask the next child you see reading what he is reading. With a struggle he will lift his eyes from the pages he loves; with a greater strugglï¬ he will detach his mind; and with a hasty "Oh, just a book!" he will dive head foremost into the pages again, unwilling to lose a precious moment answerâ€" ing an unnecessary question. Lincoln was tenacious, lying there in that little bare cabin, holdi:dg hisg.book in a grip of steel. How often has this nation thanked God fc{'r Lincoln? . Why not do everything we can do to encourage our c ildren to read, and to give ourselves every possible chance of thanking God for andther like Lincolnâ€"even in Highland Park! | _ | _ 4s Ni uio t When we survey history and look abqout the world as it is toâ€" day, we Americans will find ny reasons to be thankful that we liverin the age and in thengld in which we have been born. Things‘are not perfect, of course, but they are so much better for the average man here and now than they have ever been at any time elsewhere, that we ought to count our blessings, thank God and take courage. 3 00 : It is well that we should give thought to the wrongs ‘cand abuses of the social and governmental order, but it is also essenâ€" tial that we should give thought to the advantage and opporâ€" tunities of our socialâ€"and governmental heritage. | _ f While newspapers differ widely with respect to editorial poliâ€" cies, there is an unmistakable tendency toward a more accurate statement of the facts and a fairer at{itude .in their interpretaâ€" tion than was the case in the past. The conscientious editor of today would not think of deéliberately misleading his readers as to the facts upon which his editorials 4re. based, even though he may not dr.avg c'onclu§ions wit]n which‘ pll agree. Li #«f Broadminded readers (and this clsrrss is increasing) do mot object to opinions differing from their own, provided they feel that such opinions are honestly arrived at. They want facts above all else and the newspaper that strives to give these faithâ€" fully in connection with its editorial interpretations of the news will never lack for appreciation of its editorial page. $ This glieans that the struggle to make a garden out of a desert brings out of men the best theg:z is in them.

Sif t o P e" This renaissance of the editorial padke is accounted for large, ly by the changed character of the editorials themselves.

He loses & sense of time and of what is going on about him, but he finds clearness and coherency of thought. Lincoln did so, by lying before the log fire in his father‘s home. He might have been down at the crossâ€"roads store listening to idle gossip and the ugly scanâ€" dals of the countryside, anr while he would have learned much about human nature there, he would not, in all probability, have learned those human traits that would have been most useful for a growing boy to ponder onâ€"certainly none that had a clean inâ€" centive to imitation of thém. .‘ » *~.~â€"â€"Contributed.
