Permanent roads are a good investment Road not an expense Building Far Behind the Automobile Millions now recognize the automobile as a ne- cessity, It is no longer a luxury for the few. Sixty per cent of its use is for business. Because of this the mod- ern paved highway has become an economic ne- cessity. Yet although the mileage of Concrete Roads and Streets has been steadily increasing, our highway system today lags far behind the automobile. The great majority cf our highways are as out of date as the single track, narrow gauge railway of Glty years ago. Such a condition not only seri- ously handicaps the progress of the automobile as a comiortable, profitable means of transporta- tion, but also holds back com- mercial, industrial and agncul- tural advancement in practically every section of the country. Itis costing taxpayers millions of dol- lars annually. Highway building should be continued and enlarged upon. Your highway authorities are ready to carry on their share of this great public work. But they must have your support. Tell them you are ready to invest in more and wider Concrete High- ways now.

The first and immortal | Enid was made so by Tennyson, who | rescued from obilvion the charming idyll of Geraint and Enid and placed them among the chivalry of the Round Table. This story was found In the “Maburgeon,” and a “Triad” wentioned Enid as one of the three ladies of King Arthur's court, : The name Enid is a Celtic form of animus, meaning soul. It is pot dim. cult to perceive how the sllccessive changes came about, through differing pronunciations. Anid is probably a conneciing link in the transition and, for euphony, the word became Enid, All this must remain supposititious, however, as there is no accurate his tory concerning the name, so she Is necepted as a poetic fact.

As King Edward asked, “If this dis ease is preventable, why Is It not pre vented?’ Because Its prevention re quires action on a large scale. To protect a single child against diph- theria is good but this will not reduce the death rate. All susceptible chil dren must |» protected. The time to do this is when the child enters school, in Cleveland Doctor McClelland found that two-thirds of all children examined were susceptible and that the largest number of susceptible chil dren were found In the well-to-do homes, Not a single child out of the 90.000 treated showed any bad effects from the antitoxin, “Who would not give a trifle to pre. vent what he would give a thousand worlds to cure?” Three doses of toxin antitoxin will protect your child from this awful disease.
