Entered at the Poet Office at Richmond, Indiana, as Seecad Class Mail Matter. Supervision of Highways State supervision of roads, whether it takes the form of a highway commission or some other directing agency, must eventually succeed the county plan of road building and maintenance in Indiana. The committee appointed by the governor to investigate road conditions in the state found numerous complaints against the present system in nearly every section of Indiana. Some of the essentials that are lacking in the plan now in vogue include uniformity in methods of construction, standardization of materials used, continuity of main traveled thoroughfares and satisfactory maintenance. It is true that under the system of county control we have competent officials in some counties, but in the main the high

way superintendents are not experienced, wellqualified, road builders, y The postoffice. department, reports more than 20,000 miles of post roads in Indiana in bad condition the whole or part of the year. The off ice of public roads also reportsTmuch unfit material being used in road construction, due to the fact that while the off icials are honest they have no means of testing these materials and ascertaining whether or not they, are up to required standards. It is estimated that Indiana spends on road building and maintenance more than $15,000,000 and more than 4,500 road officials have charge of the work. It does not appear that this vast amount of money that is expended brings the results it should. It is suggested that a board be created, composed of the state geologist, the head of the civil enCneering department at Purdue university and one member to be appointed by the governor, these men to serve without pay and to engage the services of a skilled state engineer whose salary and necessary expenses shall be paid out of the automobile license fee funds. It is not proposed to levy any additional tax for road building on the maintenance of a state bureau of roads. While the farmers of the state are, generally speaking, opposed to dn expensive system of state road building and maintenance, they are nevertheless in favor of state supervision that will ; enable the counties to become more proficient in the construction and upkeep of their roads.

DISCUSS NECESSITY OF HOUSE CLEANING

Cambridge Women Argue Both Sides of Annual Renovating for Homes. CAMBRIDGE CITY, Ind., Feb. 22. The February meeting of the Home Emonocis club was held Friday afternoon in the town hall. In a spirited debate, "Resolved, That old fashioned house cleaning days be eliminated," Mrs. C. F. Hageman presented the affirmative, advancing the ' argument that if in accordance with newer methods the house or rooms day by day be systematically kept clean, there will be no necessity for the yearly event, while Mrs. Henby, on the negative, argued with equal plausibility that for the health of the general household, that the rooms should be given the annual renovation with soap and water as factors in the process.
