ROAD BUILDING PROGRESS IS TO BE JEVELOPED Largest Amount Ever Set Aside by Nation Provided . for Road Improvement.

WASHINGTON, D. C, March 3. With full state cooperation according to the terms of the federal aid road act, the United States will have a total of at least $574,000,000 for cooperative road building during the next

three years. The federal part of this i

fund is assured by an extra appropriation of 1209,000,000 in the post office appropriation bill just passed by congress and signed by the president. Officials of the bureau of public roads, U. S. department of agriculture, which administers the provisions of the federal aid road act and cooperates with the state governments in the expenditure of the money, point out that this amount of funds is the largest ever appropriated for similar purposes and for a similar period by any government in the history of the world, and that it enables the federal and state governments to carry out a roadbuilding program of a magnitude never equaled. Road Definition Broadened In connection with the great federal-aid program it is also noted that expenditures for highway work in the United States this year are likely to amount to a half billion dollars or

more. On reports received from state !

highway departments, the bureau of public roads estimates the 1919 expenditures for roads and bridges at $385,000,000, or $110,000,000 more than the average expenditures for 1916 and 1917. An Important effect of the law containing the new appropriation is that it broadens the definition of a rural post road, under which class a highway had to qualify in order to receive the benefits of the federal aid act.

A First Exhibit of the New Dress Cottons A most interesting collection of the new Ginghams, Voiles, Dimities and all other popular spring dress fabrics, awaits your inspection. There is practically an endless variety of plain colors, with a most extensive showing of plaids and other designs, and most important of all, they are excellent quality, fast colors, new patterns. We anticipate an unusually early spring season. The ending of the war has already created many wonderfully pretty patterns for springtime wearing and every woman will be eager to wear the springtime fashions just as early as possible. So then, here is the opportunity of choosing early in the season and some patterns that are exclusive.

A variety of plain colors and the better kind of checks and plaids is also shown.

CONKEYTORIALETS SAFEGUARD YOUR HEALTH Tho there are a million ways to do a thing wrong, there is but one way to do it right, and that way, as far as the proper and legal conductorship of a retail drug store in the State of Indiana is concerned, is, to be yourself or have at all times in charge of same a Full Registered Pharmacist. We once again repeat most emphatically that , the person choosing Pharmacy as an avocation who cannot or will not comply with existing laws regarding said chosen avocation, to, by all manner and means, STAY STRICTLY OUT OF THE GAME. You place your life In the hands of your doctor why should you Jeopardize your life in patronizing an unreliable dispenser? Let us look at the matter this way: First, last, and all the time the legitimate druggist will work in hearty accord with your physician. Your doctor diagnoses your case and prescribes for your ailment. You get the right medicine dispensed by the right dispenser. You take the right medicine. The right medicine makes you well. Where do you get all these RIGHTS we speak of? From the legitimate druggist, of course. Do you not think that it would pay you to pause and resolve that next time you throw every safeguard around the priceless health of you and yours? Permit us also to Impress the fact that it is quite as imperative that you get Chemically Pure, Rochelle or Epsom Salts, Ginger, Mustard, Rhubarb, Boracic Acid, Aspirin, Paregoric, Sweet Spirits of Nitre, Cream Tartar, Rock Candy, Quinine or the hundred and one drug store purchases you may make from time to time as it is to have your family recipe or doctors prescription correctly dispensed. Moral Patronize the Pharmacist who employs legal and competent help, and in whom you have every reason to have confidence. INDIANA DRUGGISTS NOW HAVE OWN PUBLICATION The Indiana Pharmacist, a monthly publication printed at Indianapolis and edited by W. A. Oren, a druggist, makes its second appearance in improved and enlarged form. This new state drug Journal Is designed to create a feeling of fraternity and of cummunity interest among all members of the craft thruout the state, and to fill an interesting and heretofore neglected field. Its purpose is to bring and keep Indiana druggists into closer touch and to amplify the pharmaceutical news of importance wherever gleaned, for the benefit of the profession. Richmond druggists have given their cordial support by sending in their subscriptions in addition to their good wishes. "The Pharmacist's" slogan is "Rx Better Pharmacy Co-operation For Indiana First." Happiness Is a matter of habit; you had better gather it fresh every day or you'll never get it at all. Elbert Hubbard. Learning is to the studious and riches to the careful. Benj. Franklin.

Responsibilities gravitate to the person who can shoulder them, and power flows to the man who knows how. Selected. Waste neither time nor money, but make the best of both Exchange.

IN THE LIGHTER VEIN REV. GODFREY AT HIS BEST The following excerpts from funeral orations by the late Godfrey Williams are handed us by a local undertaker as the Rev's best Mr. Williams was a well known colored citizen in fact a celebrity. The Good Bro. "Our heart is a tumult of sadness, and life's way has been darkened. A familiar form has gone from our midst that the coming years will be unable to replace. To know our friend and neighbor was to love him. He was the soul of generosity and kindness. He has gone out over the vineclad hills of time to await the coming of his loved ones on that other shore His will be a seat on the right of the throne, a place in glory thru all the eternal ages." The Not So Good Bro. "In the due course of human events Destiny finally came to its senses, and last Wednesday night reached out and yanked this bad brother of the colored persuasion into the unknown. We don't know where he has gone, and care a damsite less. So far as this community is concerned we can spare him with pleasure. He was a boulder upon the rails of progress; he was against everything that stood for better citizenship He was a parsimonious chicken thief, low-down, and foul of mouth and died leaving an unpaid subscription to the church. We are humane, we are forgiving, and just before the undertaker screwed the lid down, we put in a seersucker suit, a palm-leaf fan, and a thermometer. We hope he'll have a darn big lot of use for them. Lau3 Deus. H. C. L. AND EGGS. Grocer's Sign "We will not deliver eggs alone." Quite right. Should have a corporal's guard at least. "Do you think a person, ought to put all his eggs in one basket?" "Yes. And then lock the basket up in a safe deposit box." Con. LOTS OF EXPERIENCE Applicant "I wish to apply for a position as a telephone operator." Supt. Bailey "Have you ever had any operating experience?" Applicant "Yes, I have had my adenoids removed by Dr. Hays."

SARCASTIC HARRY Traffic Officer Fee has a number of pet pigeons that look to him for food and medical attention at the Main and Eighth St. crossing A few days ago one bird had the appearance of having a touch of the dreaded "Flu". Officer Harry was perturbed and looked to Veterinarian Lou Clem for advice. Dr. Clem advised throwing some small quinine pills out to the birds as has been his custom with corn and other 'edibles. Officer Harry followed advice and hied himself to our sanctum of Nostrums and called for a dozen two grain quinine pills. "Do you want them in a box, Officer?" asked we as we were counting them out. "Oh, no, certainly not." replied the genial Harry, "I was thinking of rolling them to eighth and main." EARLHAM CHEMISTRY STUDENT DEMONSTRATES There was a young chemistry tough While mixing some confounded stuff. Put a match to the vial, And after a while They found his front teeth and a cuff, i ' Doctor "You must be careful and follow the right directions for taking this pill." Pat: "G'wan wid ye.
