Oregon takes her excellent road system veiy much for granted but Iowa, now getting into the good roads class, is not forgetting the years of mud and the unfavorable publicity she received becau.se pf poor roads. As a result, Iowa people are telling the world that they built more paved roads last year than all but two or three states, that the paving of cross state highways this year will exceed the road construction of any other state. iThe day of the famous mud'road in Iowa is gone. Hut for Jowans it is riot forgotten. 5',: . ' THE ORIGIN OK A LEGEND yf It you recall the early days of the World War, you will doubtless remember the famous legend of the Angels of Mons. It was a legend that appeared in the fall of 19 , and it strengthened the Hritish morale inuin'iisurably, at a tjme when such' strengthening was badly needed.' '-.When the Hritish army was falling back before the first ih'(?sistiblesweep of the Germans, the allied cause seemed lost.. It looked as if nothing could stay the retreat. Hut this legend popped up to help stiffen morale, the Hritish were not driven into the channel after all, and the German advance was halted. . .The legend had it that the Hritish rear guard, amid the battle rack, suddenly noted gigantic, shadowy figures in the clouds, discharging invisible arrows at the Germans. Some Eoldiers even asserted that the Germans fell in rows lefoi'e this defense. At all events, the tale nfade a big impression und thousands of Hritinhers actually lielieved that some supernatural force had I wen manifest on this occasion. Hut now Colonel Kriedrich Ilerzenwirth, formerly of the Imperial German Intelligence Sen-ice, says that it was all a trick a German trick, which had just the opposite effect to that which had been planned. A German plane, he says, hovered os-er the Hritish lines, and with a movie projector cast moving picture shapes -on a cloud bank where the British soldiers could see them. It hoped, by doing this, to spread terror and confusion; the sume stunt had been tried on the eastern front and had worked lieautifully, filling the superstitious Russians with fear and awe. But It didn't work that way. Instead of terrorizing the Hritish, it actually strengthened their morale. So the Ger mans never tried it again. This revelation is extremely in teresting.
