A tit of highway 1b Juki b-hm com pleted between Cleveland and Akron, O., which Isa fine ejumple of what a road ouKht to be. It I especially de signed to suit the needs and char acter of the traffic which will go over It. The contractor call It their "heavy-duty" road, and It is blult from the ((round up and down for Just rurh service. Seventeen mile Ion, eighteen feet wide, the road will cot about f 825, 000, or better than $4K.onci a mile. That might seem expensive If lis per manency were not considered. A sound foundation wa laid for the concrete surfaco. This surface Is ten Inches thick at the crown of the, mad. and cllalit Inches nt the siil and Is reinforced throughout wllh ouartnr-lnch wlru mesh.

None of the roads previously hiilli along this route have bee n able to stand up under the heavy innlor trucking which goes over them con stantly, or to withstand the extreme of weather and heavy snow tor which the region is famous. Every snrlnc In lato years has seen them wrecked, demanding repairs and causing accidents to motors and their contents on such n scale that t in building of a better. If more Imme diately expensive highway sanio to seem the truest economy. This is the sort of road that pays, the sore that taxpayers aro beginning to rfeninnd and learning to pay for willingly. Moreover. It Is the tvpe of highway of which all tho communi ties through which it passes may be proud, as may the men who have the task of designing and building It.

But a wise guy remarked, "Put the skids on that steed, and go hire a machine that has action and speed. For methinka the fair Ellen would long chew the rag if you rode to her door on a wheezy old nag. So the kid got a car of the speediest make and tho rules of the road he proceeded to break.

The Illinois Agricultural associa 'ion Is trying to get the right kind r farm help on the right kind or .'aims. It has established a bureau n Chicago which serves without hurge.

FIRST VENTURE OF UPTON Friend Tells How He Took Chanca With Patrons of a Rundown Grocery. Dr. J. H. OstmndtT, a personal friend ot Sir Tliemn Upton, t Id re cently for the first time the story of Upton's Inltla I business venture, an exchange suites. Upton's first business venture was un event In one Mule corner of ilus gow. lie bought fr n few pounds a sorry old rundown provision shop that had changed hands a score of times; everybody lnul fulled. It was In a neighborhood vhere profits were meager and housewives close traders, and where sharp practice and Indiffer ent ethics precluded credit. So when Llpton announced that he would trust any decent neighbor once alt foresaw his doom. Upton, however, did not mean thnt he would carry accounts iiO days, for at tills period five sin-h accounts would have swamped him. A he himself put It: "In misfortune I will carry any decent clu-p till Saturday night, t will be a friend to you In spite of prevaitiim business rules; but If ycu break faith uith me you will lose a friend and I will lose my business." Thus he put them on their honor. And It won ; won because sympathy and fellowsirp d initiated tho boy and ex cited I1U ntti.hutes In others. Of khe Eye of Frog.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE JtAV WARJJ ANSWERS Editor, Newj-JUvlew: I am genuinely disappointed In Mr. Morgan to find him resorting to the ungentleiuanly methods he make use of In Mondays News-Ilevlew to omphasle his narrow gauge view on tho Aviation Ilond question and to make It a personal l.islead of a civic Issue in which every right-thinking citizen would be deeply Interested. In his latest tirade he brings out no new fatts In support of his clalrj except that he finally admits air planes were Indispeiisible during the war but "thinks" we should not spend any more money to develop commercially the thing that served our purpose so well In a time of stress: and now that we are In po sition ' to benefit commercially and cash-in on our war cxpei ience he recommends that we make no use of valuable knowledge and stop where we are. Is there any loeic In this. However this and the incident that transpired at tho City Hall yesterday afternoon nicely portrays the type of obstructionist found bloking any form or civic betterment. Misrepres entation Is invariably found in cases of this Hud and It Is a regrot table fact that men of this type are per mitted to carry on their nefarious practice. In every line of human effort are found those who are for I'rogres slveness and those who are not. It Is generally the man who does not do constructive Ihinking" that does mo3t to retard human progress, Morgan says he works IlliB days In the year, and is trying to build a home and educate his children. A most worthy purpose In life, but I have a family nnd children of inv own and I am doing the same thing, only I am go ing to do il instead of trying. It is the plain duty of every red-blooded American citizen to do these things and there nre no heroics connected with it, and llolslievisin plays abso lutely no part in it. Morgan evident ly has it In for society in general, the Tradesmen, as he calls them, in par ticular, lie probably Is also a booster for Sears Koebuck and Co., who thrive and fatten on his kind. Don't you think It would make things eas ier lor htm to accomplish his ideals for him to stop using his hands and tongue so much anil use his head more? Ho pome const ructivp thinking and cease the destructive criticism. The bis idea of Ihe aviation field," so Morgan says, "is to get the people get the money, and see them go." Is his not the way to ruin a little town and make a big one out of it? Lots of people, lots of money, lots of now factories and industries and lots of new 'blood and brains. I'ndouhtcdly Ihe wauls of the people twelve years ago were the same as now. They wanted the road, voted for it, and a few choice specimens oi non-thiiik-ers blocked the issue, such as is be ing attempted with our aviation field bonds. The aviation field is but an opening wedge towurd progresslve ness. Timber and all the rest of our natural resources are here waiting and ready' but we need more con structive builders Insteatl of ob structionists ami "Walt Awhlles." liny. L. Ward. KI.KS ATTENTION.
