ROAD PROGRAM
If your experience has been like ours you have rend a
good deal about the new federal-aid road act, about the large
sums of money to be expended and about the provisions for
distributing them among the states but you have not been able
to get down to various fundamentals of a more particular
nature. Now, thanks to Senator Cordon, we have a copy of the
law and are able to satisfy some of our curiosity on these
other features.
The appropriation authorized for road purposes in the
first three post-war years is $ 1,500,000,000 at the rate of
5500,000,000 a year. That we have known. It has been re
ported, too, that the annual total is to be divided among three
types of projects; for projects on the federal-aid system,
$225,000,000; for secondary and feeder road projects, $150,
000,000; for projects on the federal Tiid system in urban
areas, $125,000,000. We have lacked definitions for the sec
ond and third areas and these the law supplies. Here they
are:
"The term 'urban area' moans an area including anil ntl
. Jacent to a municipality or other urban place, of live thou
sand or more, the population of such included municipality
or other urban place to be determined by the latest available
federal census. The boundaries of urban areas, as defined
. herein, will be fixed by the State highway department of
each Stte subject to the approval of the Public Roads Ad
ministration. ."The term 'rural areas means all areas o the State not
included in 'urban areas.'
"The term 'secondary and feeder roads' moans roads in
rural areas, Including farm-to-market roads, rural-mall
routes, and school-bus routes, and not on the Federal-aid
system."
There is a" good deal else in the law that we would like lo
consider here at some Inter time. Foithe moment we confine
our comment to these definitions of rural and urban areas and
note that the $150,000,000 to be spent in the former is to go
"on a system of . . . roads selected by the state highway de
partments in cooperation with the . . . county commis
sioners . ,. . "
We gather from statements cmannting from highway of
ficials that the commission contemplates, matching the federal
with its own funds and it would seem probnlilo that it will
accept county funds in cooperation just as was the case ih
the early days of the highway program. Here, then, would
seem to be, both an opportunity and a need for the development
of a county program in which its post-war road funds could
be used to the best advantage.
SIGNS OF PROGRESS
The Salem Statesman expresses the opinion that
The county court is to be commended for refusal to approve
of licenses lo operators of auto wrecking places who fall lo
erect a suitable fence as screen. The one on the Pacific
highway north toward Woodburrt is an eypsbre. Where the
owner lacks personal pride in keeping his premises sightly
the state Is justified in protecting the thousands who use the
highways from such offense to their sense of beauty as
' arises from an unsightly wrecking layout.
In joining the Statesman in its commendation of this of
ficial action, even though the court is of another county than
Deschutes, we call attention to the trrowing recognition on the
part of official bodies of the need of roadside protection for
the benefit of the highway using public. The highway com
mission, for instance, has recently stipulated that there be no
billboard advertising on roadside property, no longer needed,
that it was turning back, by sale, to private ownership.
In other phase of the its work, also, the commission has
recognized the need for roadside protection. In sections as
in forest areas where concealment is at all possible stock
piles of maintenance material are placed back of a screen of
trees. An effort is made, at times, at borrow pit concealment
thus avoiding roadside scars though, to be frank, ugly ex
amples of a contrary treatment are too often evident.
The public, too, is speaking up on this subject of the road
sides more frequently. We remember the protest made by a
resident a few years ago against the unfortunate disfigure
ment of Pilot butte and last spring owners of property on the
Pacific highway south of Grants Pass requested the filling In
of borrow pits and drainage ditches in order to improve (he
sightliness of the roadsides and to eliminate unsanitary con
ditions. Believing as thoroughly as we do that roadside protection
is an essential of a sound highway program and that it pays
dividends in attracting and developing tourist business we
are glad to observe these signs of progress toward the goal.

WHEN NEW YORK WAS
YOUNG
III
Miss Fraser was a slender wo
man of about 32 Her hands wore
large, her features were plain
and her blue eyes shone with a
quick and lively Intelligence. Llv-
ing in an era when any woman of
over 25 was considered an old
maid, Miss Kraser was a spinster
who expected to remain so.
She wore a sage green cloak
that covered her from head to
foot. On her head was a blue silk
cap of bonrfet shape. When she
had it on only her face was visi
ble. It was fastened by ribbons
tied under the chin. Upon en
tering she took off her hat and
cape, and laid aside the muff that
she was carrying. Her bell-shaped
skirt, made of dark linsey-woolsey,
was stiffened by whalebone
sewed into the skirt Itself and
not separately as a hoop. Her
green silk bodice was plentifully
supplied with lace on the collar
and the sleeves. The skirt was
not long; It showed about three
inches of leg above the shoe tops.
"How did you come?" the Ma
jor inquired. He glanced at the
delicate, high-heeled shoes, made
of damask. "Didn't Walk, I. hope."
"Oh, dear me, no!" she replied,
"With these shoes!" She held out
her feet. "Ned and Fanny Hum
phrey took me for a sleigh ride
a lovely ride over the clean, glit
tering snow i and I asked them
to let me down here on the way
back." There was a thin trace
of excitement in her voice, in
everything she said. The Major
had often noticed it, and won
dered as to the cause. "They had
quite a party," she continued.
"Six people besides myself, with
Just room enough for me to
squeeze in "
"It s a fine day for sleighing,
the Major said.
"Yes," answered Miss Fraser
absent-mindedly. "Well, as I was
saying, there was just room for
me in the Humphrey s sleigh, and
I was squeezed almost flat be
tween Alice Knight and Mr. Stevens-you
know that bachelor
Mr. Stevens the lawyer "
"Did you cross t lip Kissing
Bridge?" Major Lawrence asked,
with a smile.
"Yes, we did, and we dined at
the Two-Mile Tavern. Had turtle
soup "
Major Lawrence raised his hand
and said with a' laugh, "You're
leaving out something. When you
crossed the Kissing Bridge who
kissed you?"
"Oil, that," she answered slow
ly, and her face flushed a Utile.
"I knew you'd ask that question.
Why do men always think of such
things? 4 try to be polite, and
one Is expected to kiss at that
bridge, A foolish custom. Why,
to answer your question, Major,
I was kissed by Mr. Stevens both
coming and going."
"Do you like Richard Stevens?"
The Major asked this question
with n twinkle in his eye.
"Ah -why - I suppose so," Miss
Fiaser replied. "I hardly know
him. Now, don't hnni:lne things.
Major Lawrence, you leaser. Just
remember mat we le living In the,
year 1750. In (his modern time

"Oh yes, I have II here."
Women did not carry handbags
in those days. Instead, they hail
voluminous pockets In their skirts.
Miss I'raser delved Into a pocket
and brought out a tolded blue
paper which she handed to the
Major.
Miss 1'rnser was the principal
of a girls' school of which Major
liwrenee was the chairman ol
the hoard of trustees. The school
had a small endowment that was
supplemented by voluntary eon
tribulions from the six trustees.

her school days were over. But
her education In the arts of home
making went on much longer.
Every young woman of a well-to-do
family was taught how to
knit, how to embroider, how to
do fancy sewing; ' and most of
them were taught the art of pre-
paring meals. Also, there was
music and dancing. A girl of 18
was supposed to be able to play
the spinet or the harp, and to
know how to dance the intricate
figures of the period.
Gills of poor families did -not
go to school, as a rule, for there
were no free schools and all pupils
had to pay partly or wholly for
their instruction. .The laboring
classes could not afford to pay
the fees; and, besides, their chil
dren were usually hired out at
an early age.
Miss Fraser's father, who died
when she was 20 years of age,
was a professor at Oxford in Eng
land. Nearly everything she know
had come from him. In the New
York school she did most of the
teaching, although she had a
young assistant. The girls learned
a little history, enough geography
I to give them a fairly good idea of
! the continents and countries, and
a bit of grammau, rhetoric and
composition. Literature and the
lives of authors also had a place
in the curriculum. Every pupil
paid a monthly tuition fee, as the
income from the endowment, with
the gifts of the trustees added, did
not provide sufficient Income to
carry on the work of the school.
