Penny Wise and Pound Foolish to Neglect Improved Roads. By Philip P. Sharples. Roads and the farmer, until recent- ~ ly, was quite a different problem from § Gradually roads and the motorist. C {as the farmer, through the agent of popular priced cars, has come to con- sider an automobile part of the farm equipment, the two problems have be: 'come more and more amalgamated. The farmer no longer feels that the city auto owner is trying to put some- thing over in the good roads move- ment, Driving an automobile has convinced him, as nothing else could, that a mud road, impassable after every rain and for two or three months in the spring, is not the kind of road on which he wishes hig farm situated, Ten years ago, before the advent of the automobile in numbers, the type i of road to be built in country, districts "would have admitted no question. Macadam would have been specified. Macadam properly buflt still has its place. Macadam must be distinguish- ed from the apologies for stone roads so often seen. Store dumped on an old road, with no proper drainage or grading, and without the use of a roll er, does not resemble a macadam road any more than a pile of loose bricks resemble a house, The macadam must be well built from the bottom up. If the automobile traffic becomes exces- sive, the surface can be protected by surface coatings of bituminous ma- terials. In the bituminous macadam the bond between the stone is rein- forced by some form of bitumen, either asphalt or refined tar. = The bituminous macadam, where a ! suitable stone is obtainable, forms a very attractive road proposition. Its ; cost 1s not greatly in excess of plain ing in. the Russky 'Wjedomosty of | macadam, which has been a standard Moscow of an address delivered in for country road work.

Of : course, 'this policy would annul the} and would doubtless embroil the re- public in the European conflict. But what is that to a nation that can dis- regard treaties when they stand in the way of what she considers her military necessities? 5 As an excuse for this policy of pir- acy it is urged that Germany made the promise 'to the U. 8. to cease this barbarous form of warfare only upon the condition that the U. 8. should exact the Tecognition of in- ternational law and rights of Great Britain on the seas, which it is claim- ed has not been done. The leader of the Conservative- Agrarian element is former Admiral von Tirpitz, who resigned his posi- tion when forced by Hollweg to sub- mit to the American demand. The strenuousness of the situation has forced Hollweg to organize a publicity campaign in which he is to go through the principal cities of Germany personally and explain his policy. It is claimed that this has been made necessary especially since the defeat of the German navy the North Sea battle--the truth of which is just becoming known to the people. The Chancellor's attitude towards peace and its essentials will be full explained to the people in this whirl- wind speech-maki-ng campaign. Of course, he expects Germany to win, or at least he will pretend to believe it, for any other attitude would menace his office as Chancel- lor, which is the next highest official position to that of the Kaiser. But he: is opposed to any notion of territorial aggrandizement at the expense of either France, Belgium or Russia; and the strangest thing about his policy is that he is desirous of retaining British friendship after the war. . He is antagonistic to any proposal that would interfere with such an understanding with Great Britain, for he has in view a fraternal combina- tion or working agreement between Germany, Britain and the United States, and this is why he has work- ed so persistently to avoid a break with Washington. We all recognize his position of Chancellor as one of supreme im- portance, carrying with it responsi- bility for imperial acts and policies to a large extent, and it has been sur- mized that possibly the Kaiser him- self is back of the course he is pur- suing. i His prerogatives are so far reach- ing that a change in the Chancellor at this time would be interpreted by 5 Ontario Velenary Collage Tat A Seah ' BSTABLIBHED 1862 Affiliated with the Univer- sity of Toronto. gaan: VO.

Principal py the German people as a rebuff to the Kaiser, and might involve radical changes not only in the foreign office, but in every department of adminis- tration of internal affairs, so that any new incumbent of the office would mean opposition to the wishes of the Kaiser himself. If the allies should continue fo win, as they have since "the drive" began, the Chancellor may find it hard to make any impression favor- able to his policies, upon the German people, and a crisis is liable to be precipitated in Germany similar to that which France witnessed in 1871. The Entente powers are watching events with keen interest, and stand to gain in any event. "~ pre Ask for Minard's and take no other Foolifig the Doctor.

There are irrefutable reasons why Kamloops claims the distinction of being the leading inland city of the Province of British Columbia, Its geographical position marks . it as serving a very large area; 250 miles from Vancouver, 390 miles from Cal- gary and 540 from Edmonton, it sees no possible rival. With a population of some 5,000, it points with pardon- able pride to its splendid streets and pavements, to its modern . electric lights, power, water and telephone systems, and to its uninterrupted steady progress. With abundance of water, continuous bright sunshine and undisputed soil-fertility, it contains all the attributes necessary to future commercial and agricultural develop- ments. e-- i ---- PERILOUS NAPS. Some Men Take Their Snooze in Dan- gerous Places. A short time ago a man was dis- covered in his lunch-hour fast asleep on a plank. His arms were hanging down, one on each side of the board, which was about a foot wide. He was snoring gloriously, and quite care- less, whether awake or asleep, that if he turned over for greater comfort he would "tumble out of bed" one hundred and twenty feet, for that plank was part of the scaffolding erected for the repair of a church spire! A similar disregard for danger was reported lately during the erection of some electrical works. One of the men engaged on the tall chimney, missing his mate at the lunch-hour, went up the half-finished chimney to find him. He discovered him fast asleep on a narrow ledge of brick in- side the shaft, a fall from which meant a drop of eighty feet. The other week a circus arrived in a certain town, not a hundred miles from London, at an early hour after a long journey and a performance the previous night, says London Answers. As a consequence few of the company got any sleep. That day there was the usual procession and the after- noon performance. The lion tamer General Judenitch, who has com- manded the Rusian army against Tur key from the beginning, and to whom may be given the credit for the fall of | Hrzerum and Bitlis, belongs to the younger school of Russian command- ers, though he had experience in the Japanese War, where he was colonel of a guards regiment, and took part in the abortive attempt at relieving Port Arthur. ¥ Lachute, Que., 25th Sept., 1908.

The evening performance arrived, and this man had to pretend to go to sleep with his head on the body of a couchant lion, finishing up the per- formance by springing up and putting his head in another lion's mouth. But when the jumping-up time came a gentle snore was heard. The man was fast asleep with his head pillowed on a lion! een The Canadian National Exhibition pays an annual surplus to the City of Toronté of $26,000 to $60,000. Last year the dividend was $45,000.
