The fact is the county had only $11,000 in the road fund at the beginning of the year, and must of necessity make it spread over a large amount of territory."

Fryer, from Brigh- ton.England, dated May 7: "I feel better hern than any place I have yet been in England. We are not one hundred yards from the sea and it is lovely and refreshing. Brighton is a sum mer resort. A promenade about forty feet wide runs for five miles along the front with chairs and benches to rest everywhere. Two large amusement piers run out into the sea with theatres on them and band concerts daily. There are about 200,000 people here. It is . supposed to be one of the safest spots in England now, but when there is any fighting at sea nearby we can hear the guns easy enough. "This war is no play; it is hell. But thinking people seem to feel that the United States came in just at the right time. England was about bled for money and France for men. If they could only get something to stop those submarines, the end might be in sight, but as it is now no one dares predict the end as it seems a long ways off, maybe years. The Germans are being driven back on the western front but our losses are tremendous. The Canadians lost 16,000 men at Vimey Ridge. The Germans submarined a hospital ship nine miles from here the ther day. There were several hundred German prison era aboard. They started a mutiny and started for the boats. The machine guns were turned on them and about two hundred killed, including a German general. They had aome German prisoners working down here close by making them plant potatoes, and it was discovered they had cut the eyes out of the potatoes before putting them in the ground. There is nothing too small or too big fo" them to do." POSTERITY WILL PAY In a letter to the Portland Journal, J. K.
