PROPOSED ROAD SIGN SYSTEM 10 ' SIMPUFYTRAVEL Plan Is Comparable to Latitude and Longitude Scheme, Complete revision of the system of numbering Indiana’s highways. Intended as a means of simplifying cross-state travel, is being discussed by officials of the state highway commission. The plan In general would mean the elimination of practically half of the signs now used. Each number would be assigned so they would follow a -road from one border of the State to another. Numbers from one to ten would be reserved for the roads radiating from Indianapolis. Beginning at the northern extremity of the State transverse roads would be numbered successively downward. North and south road numbers would follow the last trans-State number, beginning on the west and running east. By this plan, Commissioner Earl Crawford said, It would be possible for the average person to determine relatively in which part of the State a certain road extended. Objections to the Idea consist mainly In the cost of casting u w signs and the confusion in office records that might result. The cost of simplifying the system, however, Crawford A said, would be comparatively small. Old signs could be utilized to some extent. It is believed adjacent States would follow the Indiana plan, If Inaugurated, until eventually a single number might Indicate a direct road across the entire Middle "West. The commissioners have expressed themselves a seager to receive suggestions from citizens as to numbering the roads, revising office records and Interstate cooperation.

Just Tar and Feather Mr. Rat, Says 1923 Model of Pied Piper

“Say, If this county really wants to know how to get the rats out of the courthouse, I’ll tell you,” said a stranger who walked into commissioner’s court today. “Just catch four or fire of the biggest ones, dip them In glue and put feathers all over them. They will scare every rat off the place.” “Sort of tar and feather them, huh?” asked Bailiff Carlisle. ‘‘Say, If we were to run all the rats out of this old courthouse the merchants would get out an injunction.” Although numerous calls have been received offering cats and kittens to the county, most of them were on the grounds that the county pay for them, or come after them. "We are no tbuying cats, and I haven’t got time to go after them,” said Carlisle. “We just thought that if any one had some they didn’t want they could bring them in and turn them over to the custodian." The commissioners also received a leter from W. O. Sheets, 28 W. Thir-
