A year ;mro, Laportf couiity had no idea of appropriating over J4,0UU for per.nanent constriution on this reat memorial artery of tratllo. Our friends from I'ort Wayn? will tell us that a year auo there was no thought of a six and one-half mile section between that city and New Haven, nor 1 i 1 they anticipate that L' 1 of the 31 miles of Lincoln highway in Allen county would be improved or mruler improvement before IPir,. Your example is being: felt at LU'onier. w here agitation is under way for a permanent road. Should Spur CommltttM "Your jrovernor recently acted wisely in naming a committee to study the question of a state law, a state

highway department, a state system of roads. Don't allow that committee to go to sleep. Keep after them. Have them study the road law of Ohio; it Is one of the heist, if not the best, of aJl. You would do well, yourselves, to study the Hite law under which the hishway system of the lUickeye state is beincr developed so that it may well serve as a model. Keep politics out of your state highway organization. Illinois is going forward at top speed under a commission whose gospel is permanent roads. I am told that when (low Dunne named a banker, a lawyer and a farmer as members of that commission he knev neither their politics nor their religion. Lincoln highway s known as State Aid Koad Xo. 1, and the commission has ruled that no roads.-, newly constructed, shall be of any type but brick or concrete. This is a s'.range but justifiable step.

' A unique stunt of serving and cook- ! ins x .Sunday dinner and utilizing the i parcel postman as a waiter, requiring i him to carry the dinner sealed in a

tin can, hot and sizzling to the doorstep. Is being pulled by L.. D. Pangborn, a farmer living near Knox, Ind., to South Rend citizens. The dinner consists of a four pound chicken, packed in an air tight tin can, Muffed with delicious dressing and wrapped in a. thick dough which serves as a dumyling. The dinner incidentally takes a "slap" at the high cost of living, being sold for a dol-

i lar. The chickens used axe milk fed j fowls and all weigh at least four i pounds. Dressed poultry at the presi ont time is quoted at 1 Scents a pound j making the fowl worth at least 72 ' cents. The cost of additional ingre- ' dients for dressing, flavorings and

the like, will bring this amount toward the dollar mark, leaving little for the btbor and parcel post expenses which the farmer pays. Mr. Panpborn has a large poultrj farm keeping more than l.'HK birds all the time. He has a large kitchen establishment in which the fowls are dressed and cooked in large quantities. The birds are stuffed and the tlou-jh is plu around them before

1 thev are forced into the can. it is

Mealed, tuht and boiled for more than three hours. Hy a patented process th" cans are kept hot until the time for mailin? when they are wrapped in heavy paper and sent to the consurrer, hot as from th oven. According to Mr. Pangborn the dinner is hot when it arrives. The ratlu-r unique idea appealed to South Rend people and a number of ord-Ts were taken for dinners for n v: Snminv. The farmer takes the

ci dei a vir.h th

lie is to get his dollar afterwards if the dinner is what he represents it to be. The Pangborn plant was only set up three years ago when a small business was done in Knox. loiter it was necessary to built an additional plant and now hundreds of chickens are prepared to be sent out hot for Sunday dinners for families living as far as 1 CO miles distant.

Marion st. Interesting reports were given by the treasurer and secretary, particularly the latter. A full report of the work done by the society during the past year to aid girls, shows an increase over the results of th past years. More than 00 girls have been protected and aided during the !at few months, many of these beln merely unfortunate and. as yet. managable.
