ROAD BOOSTERS PULL FOR STATE COMMISSION

Determined That Indiana Shall Share in Big Fond Set Aside By Federal Government.

If you are a booster for Terre Haute v get busy and boost for the paving of the National road across the state-of

Indiana. Indiana Is going to have a fclghway commission and one road is going to be paved across the state. Heal boosting by every man, woman and child in the city should assure v Terra Haute representation on this v highway commission and should also assure that the road across the state which will be paved should be the National road.

This is the sentiment expressed by s Charles McKeen, of the Terre Haute Automobile club, in regard to the prorosed Indiana highway commission. •f, In order for Indiana to receive any federal aid in the good roads proposition it is necessary for the state to s -have a highway commission, as the government will not deal with any units smaller than states. Under pres'Cnt conditions it would be necessary ior the federal representatives to deal -'. with county commissioners, township trustees, etc.

With a highway ^commission created Indiana will receive $135,747 from the federal good road fund during the first and in five years the state will Is? W»ivfcd $2,109,000. Already Indiana

Youthful Impressions-

These are the ones that last the longest. Every father and mother should teach their child to be thrifty and saving.

The value of saving cannot be to strongly impressed on the child's mind. It is the early formed habits that usually are continued through life.

The sooner a child realizes the value of a dollar, just that sodn it will lay the foundation for success by saving.

You as a father or mother should open an account for each child and give them the start they need. A dollar will start one.
