He asserted that nearly every mile of the highway? he has selected has been gone over and that in choosing the roads every effort was made to distribute the system evenly over the state. ... t Just what roads will be taken over by the state is of great importance at this time to county commissioners, as they have before them petitions for road construction under the three-mile gravel road law and the county unit law on which they are deferring action because of the possibility that the state will take over the particular highway, next spring. *'" A copy of the tentative state highway system has been submitted to the state board of tax commissioners by Mr. Wright so that the tax board would have some idea of the road work that need not be undertaken by the counties by reason of the fact that the state will shortly assume jurisdiction. Delegations of county officials are calling at the offices of the highway commission daily in an effort to learn what roads in their counties will be taken over by the state.’ It is estimated that it will take the highway commission from seven to eight years to build all the roads in the state system as mapped out. The state commission wiH, however, repair and maintain all roads from the date they are taken over.

POISON WILL HALT ADVANCING ARMY WORMS.

Washington, D. C., June 23^— The outbreak of army worms, which began in I'exas during late May, has spread northeastward and is now general m the central Mississippi basin, says a statement issued today by the United States department of agriculture. Reports dhow the infestation to be rather severe in parts of the states of Oklahoma, Missouri, lowa, Illinois and Indiana. It is quite possible that the northern states east of the Appalachian mountains may be invaded within the next three or four weeks. The simplest and most effective remedy for army worms, say the federal entomologists, is the poison bran bait made according to the standard formula as given for grasshopper and cut-worm control. It is as follows: Wheat bran, 2TF pounds; Paris green or w<hite arsenic, 1 pound; lemons or oranges, 6 finely chopped fruits; low grade molasses, such as refuse from sugar factories, or cattle molasses, known as black strap, 2 quarts; water as needed, usually from 2 to 3 gallons. The bran and Paris green or arsenic are thoroughly -mixed while dry. The fruits are then finely chopped and added, and lastly the diluted molasses is poured over the bait and the whole mass thoroughly kneaded and mixed. If lemons or oranges can not be secured, crushed ripe tomatoes, watermelons, or other fruits may be added. The bait should be strewed thinly and evenly over the ground in the path of the advancing worms. This bait may be used safely in alfalfa and corn fields where it is desired, if possible, to save the crops for forage purposes.

YANKS KICK AT IDLE LINER.

'Brest, June 22, via Paris, June 23.—Since May 18 the ocean liner George Washington has been in the Brest roads awaiting the arrival of President Wilson. Day after day hundreds of officers and men of the A. E. F. have been leaning on the quay wall overlooking the harbor speculating to which ship they would be assigned and shaking their heads at the George Washington. They have nothing against the beautious big craft itself, but they have a deep grudge against the powers which have kept the George Washington here more than a month while thousands of men might have been transported to the United States aboard it. Each day since I have been here I have been approached by officers of high and low rank and numerous men in the ranks who have complained bitterly against the detaining of the George Washington idle at Brest at a cost of thousands of dollars a -day, while they remained in camp at Pont-a-nezin and here, anxiously awaiting a boat to take them home. In the hotel lobbies, restaurants and cases nightly one can hear the colonels, majors, captains and lieutenants comdemning in loud tones the continued inactivity of the George Washington. At first I thought it was the grumbling of a disgruntled few. Now I am convinced those denouncing the costly idleness of the president’s ship can be numbered in the thousands. The other day I called a high officer of the transport service and asked him what orders had been received for the George Washington. “Don’t mention the George Washington to me,” he snapped. “That’s a sore subject with us.” Officers have been busy figuring what it costs to keep the George Washington in the roads. They say it costs SIO,OOO a day for the ship alone, which means to date.

They say the George Washington could have made two - trips home with 6,000 men on each trip. That at the lowest estimate, has cost $3 per man per day, including officers and men, to keep them in.. Brest and adjacent camps while the George Washington lay at anchor. That means the president’s ship could have taken 12,000 men home and that these men, because forced to remain here, cost the government approximately 336,000 a day. Multiply this by thirty-five days, add the cost of tlie George Washington itself, and you get an idea of the complaint in general here. A lieutenant colonel, one of the most prominent 4 ern <> cra, i- s i® Washington, told me last night he knew positively at least 400 officers who are democrats and were supporters of Wilson, but who are so enraged over, their enforced idleness here awaiting a ship to take them home, they are going back determined to oppose that form of democracy that has permitted one of the largest a month while the president is entroopships to remain here more than gaged in Paris. Col. Van Voorhees, commanding the troop movement department here, is not responsible for the widespread grumbhng of officers and men. He has been powerless to use the George Washington and hundreds of casual officers, some of the highest rank, spend most of their time here openly condemning the Wilson administration for not using the George Washington. You can walk along the quay and | hear men who have the sanest judgment, good officers and good sol- 1 diers, looking at the George Wash- > ington and cussing as they did not ( do in the fields of battle cursing the enemy. There are some 2,000 casual officers and 70,000 men awaiting trans- 1 portation home. They are ‘being paid and maintained by the government. They are being got out as rapidly as possible. But a use of the George Washington would have meant a reduction of their number* last month by 12,000.

APPROVED DESIGN OF STREET

Paper* of Thomas Jefferson Show His Ccnectlon With Laying Out Capital's Great Avenue. Among the papers of Thomas Jefferson In the library of congress there Is the MU of Pontius D. 1 Stelle. in 1807, to Thomas Munroe, superintendent of the city of Washington, for “a supper povided for all the workmen engaged In the public buildings, on the completion of the south wing of the eapltol. 167 persons, at $1.25 per head.” The supper was given at the eapltol. The bill was approved by B. Henry Latrobe, superintendent of public buildings, who calls the etent “the raising supper.” A 'particularly Interesting letter ds one from President Jefferson to Superintendent Munroe, dated Monticello, March 21, 1803, referring to Thornton’s original design for Pennsylvania avenue, which Jefferson amended and approved. This approved design shows a gravel road for carriages. 38 feet in width, bordered on each side by a space 41 feet wide for tree-lined walks, then a brick pavement 20 feet in width. Jefferson explains: “One reason of preference is that this agrees with the present disposition of the Pennsylvania avenue. It will allow us also next autumn either to plant pur outer elms in the same line with the Lombardy poplars, giving to these trees ■>f large growth a distance suitable to iheir size, or we may plant them midway. so as to make a shaded mall of 41 feet breadth, or.pass a canal along the middle at a future day or a gravel walk, or anything we please.”

HALTED AT EDGE OF JUNGLE

Explorer* Forced Jo Cut Pathway to Reach Mighty Tropxal Ocean of Foliage. Here, at the edge of our cleared compound, we were confronted by a tangle. It was not very high—twenty feet or so—but dense and unbroken. Like newly trapped creatures we paced back and forth along it, looking for an opening. It was without a break. We examined it more closely, and saw a multitude of slender, graceful canestems hung with festoons of grass-like drapery. One of us seized a wisp of this climbing grass and pulled downward. ■ When he dropped it. his hand dripped blood. He might as well have run a scroll sfiw over his fingers. The jungle had shown its teeth. We laughed and retreated to the upper flodr for consultation. The sight we saw there decided us. In the distance “not far away," to use the hopelessly indefinite Guiana vernacular, high over the tumbled lower growths, towered the real jungle —the high bush. Thia was the edge of that mighty tropical ocean of foliage, that sea of life with Its surface 100, 200 feet above the earth? stretching unbroken to the Andes; leagues of unknown wofiderland. And . here we were, after thousands of miles of voyaging to study the life of this great jungle, to find our last few yards blocked by a mass of vegetation! There was no dissenting voice. We must cut a trail, and at once, straight to the jungle.—William Beebe, in Atlantic Monthly.

Different In Japan.

The list of things done differently in Japan is said to be a long one by those competent to speak from contact with the Japanese. Here are a few taken at random.' to show that the difference is real: Japanese ladies sit with their hands folded, palm upward : every lady shaves. Eddies never brush their,hair, they only comb it. It Is polite to make a noise with the mouth when eating certain food. Ladies, however, seldom do so, as they are supposed to suppress their feelings. A bride calls on her neighbors and friends, instead of her neighbors and friends calling on her. Where we speak of a thimbleful the Japanese speak of a "sparrow’s tear.” Number three is always lucky, except in “tukuwan” (pickled radish). To offer a person three pieces would be rude. We *peak of putting a thing on the fire to cook. The Japanese speak of putting fire through it. A man never wishes his vise "good morning” first. She greets him and he replies. A woman never speaks of her husband as such; she speaks of "the house." — Brooklyn Eagle.

No Official Italian Crown.

There is no official crown worn by the royalty of Italy. The famous crown of Lombardy, which dares from the middle of the fourth century, is treasured in an Italian cathedral, and is the oldest and most sacred of all crowns of Europe. How ever, the present king, like his two predecessors, has n«*ver been crowned, and never will be. The crown is made of large gold plaques hinged together and richly Jeweled and enameled. It is held as very sacred, for Inside the gold is a narrow iron band, which tradition says te the nail that fastened the feet of Christ to the cross. The crown is held as being too sacred to use.

Don't Worry.

Rise above small things. The woman who lets small things worry her will be completely undone the first time she meets with a really big problem. It Is disintegrating to your mental and nervous condition, not to mention your physical condition, to worry. You need not be resigned to fate nor .slip your troubles as the old friend duck’s back throws water. ,But you can meet troubles with a will to costQuer or adjust them—and after that •they should worry?" but not you, / I•■ . *

WHEN THOUGHTS ARE ASTRAY

Foolish Expression* Frequently Made Use of in Moments of Complete Surprise. When taken by surprise, the moot sensible persons are often startled Into saying foolish things. The passengers on an electric car the other day were amused when a frivolous, dainty butterfly of a young girl fluttered In, and half way down the aisle dropped her hand upon the shoulder of a large, tompetent-looklng lady with a basket full of parcels, exclaiming: “You dear Aunt Isabel! So here you are at last I” The lady addressed started, turned upon the speaker the face of a total stranger, and said icily: Tm not dear, and I’m not here, and when I’m an aunt I’m not Aunt Isabel Shd grew very red, and so did the snubbed young woman as, amid the titters of their neighbors, the girl begged pardon and hurried forward to her real 'Aunt Isabel, wildly beckoning her from a seat farther forward, Still more thoroughly confused in speech, although clear enough in her meaning, was the young wife, who was addressed by a strange gentleman in a railway station. She was wearing a raincoat and blur veil —most deceptive of costumes^—and her height and general appearance led him to mistake her for his wife, whose train had been delayed. Coming up behind her, he took her familiarly by the arm, exclaiming: “Thank goodhess, I’ve found you, Mary! I began to think you were lost!” mistaken, sir!” she gasped, jerking nervously round. “You haven’t found me, and she is lost. I’m Mary, but she isn’t meYouth’s Companion.

ALL WERE “POOR FISH” ONCE

Scientific Sharp Goes Back Fifty MUlion Year* to Prove Truth of Hl* Statement. When your best girl calls you a “poor fish” believe her. For she has a line on your ancestry. Any regret you may have felt that your ancestors didn’t come over on the Mayflower should be somewhat appeased by the thought that they at least swam over, under or in the wake of that Illustrious vessel. This information may not be new to students of evolution, but to those who have been too busy to do any research work fish ancestry may come as something of a shock. ; Especially if you’re a fisherman and have been unwittingly hooking your distant relatives all these years. The evolution of man is being traced in a series of lectures at one of the Harlem high schools by a wellknown professor and he has all the natives by the ears, writes a New York correspondent of Pittsburgh Dispatch. He told them that they were all mer* fish 50,000,000 years agp, which Is going back beyond their earliest recollections, and since then the fish markets of Harlem have become center* of Interest. The staring eyes of the prostrate shad, herring and flounde# has caused many passers-by to stop and earnestly look for recognition frdln a long-lost relation. The majority of Harlemites, however, cannot figure it out whether they were descended from a lamprey eel or a striped bass.

Staten Island.

The borough of Richmond, other wise Staten island, and the second largest borough of Greater New York, probably would have been part of Ne« Jersey had it not been for the sporting spirit of the duke of York, afterward James IL and of Capt. Christophei Billop, a sturdy navigator of Old Manhattan. When New Jersey claimed the island, the duke announced that all Islands in the bay that could b« circumnavigated in a day should bo long to the colony of New York. Ths Jerseyite colonists were gleeful at tWa feeling sure that Staten island could not be claimed by this plan. Captain Billop, however, disliking the Jersey governor, took it upon himself to make the trial in his famous sloop, the Bentley, and made the circuit Just within 24 hours. In recognition of hie feat he was given a large tradt ol land and a fine house on the southern end of the Island.

Popular Phrases.

“What is a popular phrase?" soms one once asked. “Something we all repeat like parrots, without knowing its real origin or meaning,” was the reply of the cynic; and to a certain extent he was right, observes an exchange. How many of us, for instance, can tell where the terms “tuft hunters” and “fools’ paradise” arose? As a matter of fact, the latter phrase originated in the theological argument that there is a place for fools just outside panb dise, while the term “tuft hunting” took its rise at the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, where at one time the young noblemen wore a peculiarly formed cap with a tuft, which presumably attracted hangers on.
