TOWNSHIP MID
BUREAU UNDED WHY
Districts Are Filing Reports With
the New Branch of High
way Department
State Highway Commissioner E. M.
Bigelow has under way the Bureau of
Township Highways of the State High- j
way Department, organized under the j
Jones earth road act, passed by the i
1913 Legislature, and to it are coming
reports from nearly ever)' °ne of the j
1,508 townships of the second class in:
the State, giving the organization of,
the boards of supervisors which will |
work in eo-opertion with the bureau. j
Two meetings of the county super- |
visors have been held in accordance j
with the provisions of Act 109 and an
other is announced tor February 23,1
this being the Bucks county meeting, to
be held at Doylestown. At these meet- j
the township supervisors assemble J
to discuss problems of roadmaking and i
repair and to hear such instructions
as the State Highway Department has
to transmit regarding their work. At
i the two meetings already held—onej
at -Erie for that county and one at;
Reading for Berks county nearly
two-thirds of the supervisors of each
county were present and expressed l
great interest in the proceedings. The
Erie meeting was addressed by First
I Deputy Highway Commissioner Joseph
\Y. Hunter, who has been recently up-;
I pointed in charge of the Township
Highway Bureau by Highway Com
missioner E. M. Blgelow. The Bead
ing meeting was addressed by Second
j Deputy Highway Commissioner E. A.
■ Jones. Mr. Hunter expects to attend
the Doylestown meeting and is work-;
ing on a schedule of metings to be
held in other counties during the
Spring.
Kittle is generally understood re-i
garding the workings of the earth
road law, or Act No. 440 of the 1913'
Legislature. It was formed to supple
ment the work of the State Highway
Department as established by the
Sproul act. and under its provisions a
I general supervision of the highways
and bridges maintained in whole or
in part by aid of State moneys, ex
cepting State or State-aid highways, |
is provided for. Each township of the |
second class in the State —there are;
I.oOS of them —elects, at the municipal
election, three supervisors, who meet
with the auditors of their respective 1
townships on the lirst Monday in De
cember and appoint a secretary and
treasurer. This board of supervisors
is authorized to levy a road tax not
j exceeding ten mills. Each township
coming under the provisions of the.
act receives annually front the State f.O j
per cent, of the total amount of road .
tax collected in cash.
An important part of the duties of
the township supervisors is to divide
the township into two or more road
districts and employ a superintendent
: for the cntiro»township or roadmasters
for each district. These roadmasters
are to be paid by the hour, their
wages being fixed by the township su- j
pervisors.
As is the case under the Sproul act,
the State is divided into districts, with
1% State highway superintendent assign
>ed to each district. These State high
way superintendents have general
. charge over all township highways and
bridges, which they must personally!
visit and inspect at least once in each
year. They must advise and direct
how to repair, maintain and improve
such highways an«l bridges, and, that
they may be familiar with their du-
I ties, they must examine the various
j formations and deposits of gravel and
stone In their districts to be used for
I such purpose. Plans, specifications and
estimates according to standards pre
pared by the State Highway Depart
ment must be approved by these su
perintendents.
One of the most important provis
ions of the township bureau act is that
, it gives the State Highway Depart
ment the authority to furnish plans
ind specifications to townships for new
roads and bridges free of cost to the
township. If a township is desirous of
improving a certain road by correct
ing the grade, building news bridges
and culverts and putting up-to-date
surface on the road, the Bureau of
Township Highways will make the
necessary surveys and draw up the
olans and specifications free of all
cost. All blank forms and books nec
essary for the transaction of the town
shit) supervisors' business are fur
' pished by the bureau without cost to
the township.
Deputy Highway Commissioner
Hunter has drawn up the following
set of tentative rules for the transac
i tion of the business of the bureau, and
they will be sent to the various boards
1 of townships supervisors in the near
future.

WOMEN AND RELIGION'
SUNDAY SCHOOL TOPIC
Her First Field Has Always
Been the Home and
Children
! The International Sunday School lies- !
son Fop January 25 Is, "Serving
Jesus."—Luke 8:13; 9:57-62; 10:
38*12
(By William T. Ellis)
"The woman question" inescap
| ably is one of to-day's living issues.
1 Every thoughtful person is bound to
j face It squarely, and to look into it i
deeply. Whatever Is merely super- j
' tlclal or inddential should be elimi- j
; nated. Thus the suffrage issue is |
! not "the woman question." Even the !
1 so-called "feminist movement,"
; which shatters the old conventions 1
and finds other sphere for woman |
; tiian that of wife, mother, and
home-maker, is not sufficiently in-'
; elusive. Considered dispassionately,
; the distinctive place, the distinctive
abilities, and distinctive mission of
women must enter into any study of
"the woman question." This may
appropriately be done in connection
> with the present Sunday School les
son. For here we lind the attention
iof millions of persons the world
j around simultaneously concentrated j
upon the New Testament stories |
i that are sufficiently g eneral to |
open up the whole "woman ques- |
tion." As we walk with Mary of j
Magdala, and Joanna and Susanna,
who followed Jesus and ministered |
to him of their substance; and as t
we sit in the shadow of the hospi
table Bethlehem home, where, the ]
tired teacher so loved to resort, we I
may consider what light the Bible |
sheds upon this modern perplexity.
A Frank Word About Women
Whatever the future may hold,
whether woman is to rule by ballot
or by battle ax, or by ministry and
inspiration, there are certain truths
which may frankly be stated about
woman's place in the past.
Always her first field has been the
home and the children. She has been
potent in affecting the most inti- |
mate and basic human conceptions, j
Hers has been the shaping influence
| upon life at its springs. She has
; made "home" a sweet word. The I
picture of the Bethany home where
Jesus delighted to visit is illumina
tive.
Always women have been more |
religious than men. At all times and ]
under all creeds they have been the j
defenders of the t'aitli and the at
tendants of the altar lires of spirit
uality. This continues during to-day |
both in the Christian Church and in j
I pagan lands, "if a man is an incur
• able religious animal", then the fe-'
i male of the species is more religious!
j than the male. No symptom on the i
day's horizon is more alarming than I
the modern increase in the number I
, of women who give religion no place
in their scheme of things, and who
undertake to get along without Its |
j restraints and its consolations.
Always woman has been an ideal- I
ist. That the claims of Jesus should j
be so swiftly and deeply understood i
by women is significant. It is a rare i
church indeed that is hut attended j
by more women than men. This also i
is true of concerts, lectures, art ex- }
j hibitions, and the highert classes of
drama and all literary and ethical
i occasions. The idealism of woman is
; apparent on every hand.
! Always woman has been the |
heartener of men. Kipling makes!
j one of his characters say "There !
1 are just two kinds of women in the
world: those who put strength into;
men and those who take it out of j
them." The friendship of Martha and i
Mary evidently meant much to
Jesus. This apparently indirect exer- !
cise of woman's power may not sat- I
isfv some persons: but the armorer's;
! part in the battle is as real as that I
;of the warrior. Barrle's exquisite'
• sketch of "Margaret Ogilvie" recites [
how his mother declared that she ■
would be proud to be the mother of
Robert Louis Stevenson, as for I
himself, Barrie vows that all he is or :
has done he owes to his mother.
1 The world can ill afford to lose that [
kind of woman.
The Ileal (Emancipation
Here we come to a profound his- '
torical fact. Jesus Christ has been
the real Emancipator of womanhood, j
In His discipleship she has gone to
newness of honor, to newness of serv- |
, ice, and newness of character,
i Through all the centuries, since one
I little group of women were "last I
. at the cross and first at the grave," i
: women have been the best friends
jof Jesus, even as He has been the j
best friend of womanhood.
A new sense of sisterly solidarity j
has developed in Christianity. We (
might call this a noble sex con-1
sciousness. The passion of Christian '
woman for the welfare of the women i
of the world is not often discussed I
in the newspapers, but it is the j
broadstand and most beautiful phase j
of the whole "woman question."
Woman's Ideal Man
In return for what He has done
for her, woman has lavished upon
Christ the intensity and fullness of
an unmeasured devotion. He has
filled her vision of an ideal man.
lis strength and tenderness, His
mastery and His ministry, have sat
sfied woman's loftiest aspirations. :
The mothers who have raised their
ions by the Christ-standard, and I
have fired the hearts of those sons
vitli the Christ-passion, have been I
ihe greatest servants of the race. Is I
here anything that would better I
serve these new times, than more of!
this spirit in the day's womanhood j
The company of women who fol
lowed Jesus, as we are told in this |
lesson, were the fore-runners of an j
innumerable host. It would exalt i
the thinking, the living, or the!
•haraeters of a multitude of us who I
are talking losely about "the-woman I
uestion" if we were to get a clear!
vision of the type of womanhood
vho in home and church and Christ
ian women's organizations are mod
estly seeking to help the world in the
name of the Lord Jesus.
Homelessness of the Leader
Interjected into this lesson story,
as if to accentuate the human needs
of Jesus on the comfort that was
brought Him by the sympathetic
women, are the three instances of the
men who wanted to follow Him. To
the first the Master replied "The
foxes have holes, the birds of the
heavens have nests; but the Son of
Man hath not where to lay His head."
The second wanted lirst to bury his
father, and the third to bid fare
well to his family; but Jesus pointed
out that all else must wait when
the kingdom business is concerned.
The urgency of the kingdom call
sounds through these incidents. Ease
at hofaie, social conventions, and the
comforts of life are not for the one
who gives himself to the mission of
the kingdom,

Jesus and the hospitality in Bethany
' was the more precious because of
this.
The House of Hospitality
The best traditions of Oriental
I hospitality were fulfilled in that
j Bethany home. A guest was not an
occasional event, upsetting the house
hold routine and creating an abnor
mal life. These two gracious women
ministered constantly by means of
their home, a new form of Christian
service which will come again to its
own one of these days. A woman
can do more for the world and for
religion by the right use of her home
j than by making speeches or writing
| articles or serving on committees.
Two types of women were host
-1 esses in the Bethany home. Both.
j were beloved friends of Jesus and
; honored by Him. Martha was the
I "practical woman, of the housekeeper
| type, with a deep sense of the im
: portance of dinners; her husband
! would have heard from her had he
j been late to meals. She was some
] what under the tyranny of pots and
j pans. Means of hospitality had tm
| perceptively taken the place of the
: object of hospitality. We may make
; all excuse for Martha when we con
i sider the crowd of men—Jesus and
| the twelve, not to mention others—
who were to be fed that day. But
1 sjie had allowed herself to be dls
i tracted by her task. She was "rat
tled," as an expressive colloquialism
. I has it.
A Wise Woman's Way
: Now hospitality is more than the
• ! giving of dinners; it is a sharing of
i self. Everybody knows the type of
s hostess who is too flustered to en
s joy her guest, or to let her guest en
' joy her. The criticism that may
' fairly be made of Martha is that she
s i had forgotten the old word of Ec
■ ] clesiastics. "There is a time for all
I things." Mary, with keener spirlt
-1 j ual intuition, saw that a great hour
. i had come. This w~as no time to pot
-1 j ter about the kitchen when a great
j j teacher awaited companionship in
; i the guest room. Mary was the sort
j of woman who perceives the lonell
f ness of the life of the publicist and
understands that the applause of
the crowd is no balm for the wearl
ness and loneliness of the spirit seek- ]
lng sympathetic fellowship.
A bit petulant Martha spoke Ir
ritably to her sister and her guest;
thus It usually comes about when
we let mere things master us. Ten
derly, and with the freedom of a
privileged friend, Jesus Himself made
answer in Mary's behalf "Martha,
Martha, thou art anxious and trou
bled about many things, but one thing
is needful; and Mary hath chosen the
good part, which shall not be taken
away."
That was as if He had said, "Tou
have let yourself come under the
yoke of mere transitory things. Mary
has put first things first, and has
chosen the permanent values. Din
ners are daily affairs; when a great
spiritual opportunity comes, It is
unique and all else must stand aside
or it."
Ater all has been said, would it
not help more than anything else
toward the solution of "the woman
question," and a hundred other
questions that trouble our times. If
more of us were to learn the art of
quiet contemplation in the company
of Jesus, viewing life's values as near
' ly as possible from His standpoint?
To Keep the Skin
Soft and Velvety
■ | Tho use of face powder during the
r i cold weather months is chiefly respon-
s 1 sible for so many rough skins and
■ | faded complexions. This is because
11 powder absorbs the natural moisture (
• i and exposes the delicate tissues to the
• J blighting effect of the raw winds. A
■ | plain mayatone lotion does much to
11 restore the youthful tone and keep
1 ! the skin clear, soft and velvety. This
t is prepared by dissolving an original
• package of mayatone in one-half pint
1 witch hazel. Using it night and (
f. morning soon banishes all complexion
