GIRL HAS GOOD ROAD PLAN
Eugene.— Road-building, a course of
study for the rural schools of western
Lane county, is to be introduced with
in a few days by Miss Goldie Van
Biber, school supervisor in the Sius-
law district. Instructions have been
mailed. This is the first experiment
of its kind ever tried in Oregon. Ac
tual road-building is the laboratory
work which will accompany this
course. The children of each district
will build and maintain during the
approaching rainy season a strip of
county road near the school building.
The school whose road stands the win
ter and Is found in the best condition
will be the winner of a unique con
test in which school children on the
Sluslaw eagerly are awaiting to par
ticipate.
County Judge Helmus W\ Thomp
son, Lane county’s most active good
roads enthusiast, was so pleased with
this woman's plan to teach the funda
mentals of road building in the rural
schools that he immediately offered
two huge silver cups as prizes for this
good roads contest.
