9 J - THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, . PORTLAND, TUESDAY; JUNE 8, 191!?. 1 i . - i - i i 1 i BIDS FOR PAVING OF COUNTY ROADS TO BE T( OPENED MORROW Letting Contracts Will Not Take Place for Several Days However. WILL TRY WOOD BLOCKS fast Will B Kad or Zrfcal Product Wita View of Mor Oanaral TXse in Tatars. Bids will be opened at 11 a. m. to morrow by the board of county com mlssloners for the kardsurfacing- of 70 odd miles of county highways as pro vided for by the recent 91.250.000 bond Issue. If the regular order is followed tha bids will be referred to the county roadmaster for tabulation and com parison and It is probable that the commissioners will not make the awards for several days. , The roads have been, divided Into 27 different sections and contractors will either bid on a part or the whole. The St. Helens or Linnton road. which sustains the heaviest traffic, has been divided into 13 sections for the purpose of affording an opportunity of laying the different types of pave ment in order to make a comparative test under the same traffic conditions of wearing qualities. . ;", Wood Blocks to Be Triad. On the heavv grades and shart'"turns ii Is planned to lay either basalt blocks or vitrified brick. For this reason the Columbia river highway has been cut up Into five sections. The Canyon road has been divided into two sections for ' similar reason, as has the Sandy road. On the. Base Line road it is planned to lay a section of wood blocks in order" to test this material, with a view of more general use In the future. The Slavln, Powell Valley and Foster roads have not been sectlonized and will be bid on as wholes. The indications are that there will be a lively competition and that very favorable bids will be received. The ro&dmaster's office has given, out 25 sets of plans and specifications to con tractors. These, in addition to local men, include representatives of Seattle, Salt Lake and California firms. Maintenance Bids Also. Besides receiving bids for construc tion, the commissioners will also re ceive bids for maintenance for a period of 10 years. This is to guarantee that tha roads will outlive the term of the bond issue, 15 years. After the bids are opened it is with- ltt the province of the county commis sioners to select the one which in their Judgment will give the best value, tak ing into consideration also the person ality of the contractor and his ability to do the 'work and give the necessary financial guarantee. Concrete. Hot Pavored. "After an investigation of several weeks the committee appointed by the Chamber of Commerce has recommend ed that the "Warrenite' or bitullthic tyoa of pavement be selected for the most of the highways, but that on grades and sharp curves basalt blocks or vit rified brick be used.- The committee also recommends that a Bection of wood block be laid, pro viding the cost is not prohibitive, in order to encourage a local industry. As to concrete, the committee is of the opinion that it should not be used for a wearing surface but only as a base. An active promotion is being carried ons by a lobby representing the West ern Washington cement manufacturers In behalf of the use of concrete for a wearing surface.

"Th Heart of Paddy Whack" is no exceptions From the pen of Rachel Crothers, it is a charming comedy romance with tha appealing minor strain- like that which enriches Irish music. ' Mr. Olcott has abandoned 'the gay swashbucklng blade and is a bachelor whose temples are touched with gray. He has a ward whom he loves and whom he Js supplying with funds mak ing her think it is her own money, that s&e may feel independent. He will not speak his love and she almost marries another but of course she does not. That is the plot nucleus with many delightful byways of development- t Tha two characters 'that "take first rank with , Mr. , Olcott are Jennie La mont and little7 Stephen Davis, one an Irish : Bridget the -other a, ragged, lit tle boy with a penchant for dreams. Each is flawless in characterisation. Edith Luckett is Mr. Olcotfs leading woman of great charm and the re mainder of his cast is more than ade quate. The new songs this year are "Irish Eyes of Love," "A Broth of a Boy," "A Little Bit of Heaven" and "Who Knows. Of course he comes before the curtain after the second act for his usual delightful chat with his audi ence and to sing them "My Wild Irish, Rose," and this time "Mother Macree" ror aaaea measure.
