Conerete Signs Planned.
A new. system will be employed fer marking the Lincolnlhighuway next summer. Square concrete 'posts will be used. On the side facing the motorist will appear an arrow cast of blue concrete, directing whether he shall proceed straight ahead or turn to the left or right, according to the Lincoln Highway association. e On the face there .will be the familiar red, white and blue marker, each division being concrete, above which there will bé a bronze medallion of Lincoln, ‘the emancipator's head being encircled by the legend: “This highway dedicated to Abraham Lincoln.” i
The project has been under consideration for several years, but tlie initial cost prevented it until two sponsors of the Lincoln highway—WillysOverland and General Motors—both of whom have contributed to road building in the far west, offered to finance the new venture which it is b'eiygaed will eventually supplant present methods. :

LION CAUSED A COMMOTION
Its Appearance on Street Also Incls * dentally Led to a Lavish Display ' of Hosiery. ' 3
A lion in a Jersev City railway station wriggled out of his cage the other, day and created a mild panic. Of course, as the immortal weaver justly observes in the” Shakespeare fantasy, “a lion among ladies is a most dreadful thing,” and the ability and hosiery displayed upon the untoward occasion seems to have been extremely hurried and generous. 2 r, It is said by his keeper‘that thera was no danger. The lion was an advanced neutral. H 2 was out for food, .but not for food of the primitive type. The glowing charms and smelliness of the railway restaurant had lured him to the point of breaking his bonds. With a hop, skip and leap he would have reached the lunch ‘counter, and in less than three seconds by a-Hack-ensack hour glass would have had the ‘place to himself. Hi o . When his keeper arrived on the ‘scene the unhappy king of the forest ‘had decided to divide his attention between a fossil doughnut and a concrete pie. = e As the rude chaperon fastened a thumb and finger -in the leonine ear and pushed him back into his cage, he roared dolefully—the lion roared dolefully—and there is no doubt the roar spelled acute mental indigestion. .Thus ended another of those rare episodes that help to break the deadly -monotony of New Jersey life.—Cleve- ' land Plain Realer. . ;
KNITTING GOOD FOR NERVES Revival of Pastime ‘ls One of the Few . Good Results of the War in : ° . . Europe. ; One of the few good results of th‘e{} European war has been to make-thou-sands® of men, women and - children. learn to knit. There is nothing better toxj nerves that are unstrung and need toning up, physicians say, than knitting.. For many years every man in the British army, from the men in the ranks to the commanding generals, has been taught to knit, and now, thanks to the demand for warm socks ‘and mufflers for the soldiers at the front, the practice is spreading to all ,walks of life. L . . .The monotony of plying the needles in and out of the tiny loops is extremely soothing to tired brains and nerves. The effect is similar to that produced by counting s,heep\, which is recommended hy many as a method of inducing sleep. i , Once the art of knitting is mastered you can pursue it without giving your plying fingers either thought or 'sight. In the London parks these days you can see hundreds of convalescent soldlers, their fingers busy with knitting, while their eyes are occupied in watching what is going on around them.
