Eternal Vigilance, every school
bay mows, is the price of Liberty.
Eternal vigilance is also the price of
food highways. Proper and regular
maintenance is the most important
factor in road life.
• There's No Such thing as a per
manent road. A highway is a piece
of construction, like a house or any
other building; if you fail to watch
if constantly, if you fail to make
those repairs necessitated by weather
and wear, you're in trouble!

an umbrella. That is to say, it pro-

In the form of rain, sleet and snow.
Thus, the foundation cannot be at
tacked directly.
• The Cost of maintaining each
mile of a 20-foot wide, cement con
crete highway may run from $275
to $550 per mile per year. If the road
is a bituminous mix, it will average
$575 a mile per year, and if un
treated gravel, the price may average
$875 per mile per year.
This Sounds High to the average
citizen, of course. But consider this:
the original cost of a cement road is
estimated at $35,000 per mile. If you
owned a house worth $35,000 would
you consider an annual maintenance
cost of $275 to $550 as liiph ?
' Keeping Roads in good condi-
gion, apparently, is an excellent in-
{vestment.

think so, and with good reason.
In her book, “Papa’s Table
d'Hote,” she describes his Gon-
farone’s restaurant in New York
some 40 years ago, and lists
prices he paid for meat and vege
tables. Gonfarone's customers paid
50 cents for a seven-course din
ner, but wholesale foodstuff prices

retard gains, Ruth Leverton main
tains in her book, “Food Becomes
You.” If you want to gain weight,
“smoke and drink after you eat,
if at all,” she advises. “When you
use them for a pickup between
meals or before meals, they satis
fy your hunger and you lose
interest in food.”
