"I'll—1 11 think of It." said Dwyer— and he did. He not only thought of It. but he met bls friend and familiar that evening more glum and despondent than ever. "Well?” Interrogated the maker of plots and benefiter from the saute, “What luck'.'" "Miss Evn Barclay simply stared ul me tn wonder.

"The girl isn't of my clues and never would be." It wits a pet scheme of Lawyer Wor­ den rudely dashed to the ground.

This Is true purtfmtnrty of sll the New England states and New York, New Jerary, I’t-nnsyIvanin, Delaware, Mary­ land anil other atules.

State highway departments have given considerable thought to the proposition, ami It Is not Improbable that the state leglxlntnre will author face the department to undertake the Conal ruction of sM-’pnthw. along some of (lie principal highways nt lesat. It Is declared that waterproof und dust­ proof putlis can be constructed very cheuply of asphaltic macadam and that pathways of that kind will not only keep jiedestrlnns out of the wuy of automobiles and trucks, but will afford a ropdway for bicyclists as well. Resolutions »ere recently adopted by the New Jersey Association of County Engineers recommending pas­ sage by the New Jersey legislature of a law authorizing the laying of side­ walks along all state and country rouds and authorizing condemnation of property for the purpose where there is insufficient width.

In New Jersey, the proposition 1ms been wel- corned by motorists and pedestrians as well us public ufficiala. KveryiMdy recognizes that the value of human life cannot be estimated. Safeguarding of human life, there­ fore, by preventing accidents. 1s one of the most lmi«>rtant problem» con fronting the modern highway builder. He must build highways so as to avoid congestion. Elimination of congestion Is vltully Important now. with the con­ stant extension of part'd road systems, bringing an Increase In the number of motor vehicles and making the speed of trovel much greater. At present the number of automo­ biles Is Increasing more rnp!dly than the pnved hl^' Yay« to entry them are beln- built. This Is hound to cause cuugestlon of the roads as they now are And congested truffle conditions mean that travel at the speeds neces­ sary to highest etliclency will be likely to cause accidents. Th«- solntioj of the problem lies tn more roads and wider roads. Wider roads arc particularly Important to ac­ commodate the greater number of mo­ tor vehicles. Every motorist—you In particular—must help to make high­ way travel more pleasant and more safe by working for wider roads. Already steps have been taken In many parts of the country to build new puied roads wider and widen old ones by adding new strips of pavement at the side. Old concrete pavements which were built 10 or 18 feet wide are being Increased to 20 feet or more by laying new strips of concrete nt the side of the old pavement.
