DESPITE the Increase In the use
of white painted guard rails,
whitewashed traffic indicators
of one sort or another and more elab-
orate danger signals, automobile acci-
dents are steadily growing more nu-
merous, automobile associations point
out in reviewing the summer's casual-
ties.
The next great important step to re-
duce the number of accidents will be
the elimination of dust, in the opinion
of those associations.
Dust, in spite of the greater mileage
of concrete roads, is causing many ac-
cidents, a condition due In part "to the
constantly growing highway conges-
tion.
High winds and passing cars ralsd
dust clouds that have been compared
with the smoke screens of naval de-
stroyers. Through that screen the
average motorist must guess hie way
and trust to luck that no one is di-
rectly in his path, the automobilist*
assert.
In some sections of the country,
where motorists have been able to con-
vince officials of the perils In dust-
covered highways, the authorities are
applying chemicals to the road sur-
face, particularly calcium chloride, a
moisture-absorbing material that lays
the dust. The prevention of dust Is
unquestionably a large factor in any
safety first campaign.

Investigators Show How the
Moisture in Paris Sub-
way Cut Down Germs.
MOISTURE decreases tlie num-
ber of bacteria in the air
enormously. French scien-
tists counting microbes i- the air be-
fore and after a rainstorm in Paris
have found wide variations in the
totals.
In a cubic meter of air gathered up
near the Place Clichy Messrs. A. Sar-
tory and Marc Langlais found 3,800
terms on a wet day at 5 p. m. and
10,000 at the same time on a dry day.
Similarly in the Paris subway after
the tracks had been sprinkled thor-
oughly only 410 bacteria were found
to the cubic meter while two hours
later, when the tracks were dry, the
investigators discovered 68,000.
Taking advantage of such findings,
officials of many communities are ad-
vocating more generous sprinkling
and In many instances have applied
oalcium chloride to road surfaces to
lay the dust. That chemical, which
in itself has high germicidal value,
absorbs moisture as well as killing
?erms.

Henceforth, civilization can be no
better than its highways.
More than $1,000,000,000 was spent
in improving highways of the United
States last year.
Good roads are a fine thing, but it
Is well to remember that they lead
i way from the farm as well as to It.
All roads leading to the four gate-
ways of Yellowstone National psyk
are reported to be In excellent condi-
tion.
The national parks, seven In the
United States and three In Canada,
are now linked together by improved
highways.
The Defense highway, shortening
the distance between Washington and
Annapolis, Md„ by eight miles, will be
completed this year.
Twenty times around the world!
Such, at any rate, Is. the distance
American motorists could travel on
their 500,000 miles of surfaced roads.
The Arizona highway department
lias taken consideration of the pedes-
trian on the roadway and has made
official recommendation that he walk
on the left side.'
Minnesota has 100,000 miles of pub-
lic roads of which 7,000 are trunk
highways treated by special patrol
maintenance, on which there has been
expended during the past five years
$33,000,000 annually. This state Is n
large user of calcium chloride for dust
laying and highway maintenance.
WHEN you sneeze is not al-
ways a sign you are taking
cold. That Is the opinion
of physicians working on public
health problems in the last few years.
Most men and women when they feel
l that tickling in the nose or throat 1m-
j mediately look for the nearest door or
j window, convinced that they are sit-
ting in a draft.
| However, the draft, if there is one,
j may have nothing to do with the mat-
I ter at all, physicians say. The un-
happy one merely has inhaled a few
I million or so dust particles.
That may be true particularly of our
' cities where enough dust floats in the
I atmosphere in one year to build a
J cone-shaped mountain 1,500 feet high,
with a five-mile diameter.
Some statistician has figured it out
that if all the dust that hovers
above American cities were gathered
in one place, say Manhattan Island,
that dust would be piled up on the
streets of Manhattan to the depth of
21 feet.
But one Is likely to sneeze while
walking along a country road, though
not quite as likely as in the city. Here
the dust that is raised usually comes
from dirt or gravel roads. There is,
however, less likelihood of this today
than ever before as highway officials
now have at their command many
methods for "binding" the top cover,
particularly the use of such chemical?
as calcium chloride, considered by en-
gineers the best of dust layers.
KANSAS FAVORS
GRAVEL HIGHWAY
THE Kansas Highway Commis-
sion has adopted a definite pol-
icy of using sand and gravel
on all the roads It can Improve that
way for the present.
"Gravel and sand cost only $1,500
to $2,000 a mile," said John Gardner,
Highway Director. "By using these
materials, which are plentiful in many
sections, we can build roads passable
at all seasons without difficulty or
long delay. They are easy and inex-
pensive to maintain. By using the
calcium chloride, the gravel and sand
are held together and the dust Is ob-
viated. Of course, these roads will
have to be rebuilt In five or six years,
but we feel that It Is better to build
that way and get as many people out
of the mud as possible rather than
build short stretches of more perm*
,nent and more expensive roads, Jufl
this time."
BiKM y Celebration.
A pretty compliment to Mr. Jona-
than Collier was the birthday dinner
given to him by his children and
grandchildren in his home eight miles
west of Saint Jo, last Sunday, June 3.
ITiat was his 8S*th birthday and his
children and friends bearing many
good things to eat came to his home
to help him celebrate it.
The long table at which guests
gathered was made beautiful with
spring flowes, and ocupying the place
of honor iiV the center of the table
was the birthday cake bearing its 89
candles. The cake was presented by
his grandchildren, Mr. and Mrs.

ty, Texas, June 3, 1839. He was mar-
ried in Tennessee 67 years ago, and

Mrs. T. M. Collier, Mr. and Mrs. I.
F. Collier, Mrs. Ella Johnson, Mr. and
Mrs. Carsten Reimess, Mr. and Mrs.

grandchildren; and Juanita and Dor-
othy Mae Phillips, Treva Jo Price,
Joyce and Son Arnold, great grand
children.

County Baptist Associational News.
Interest in the campaign for evan-
gelistic meetings is in full blast. The
pastors are making arrangements for
their help and the times being set
for the meetings to begin. Eleven
meetings are either being held or ar-
ranged for definitely, and I am sure
that a Baptist meeting will be held in
every locality in the county. Any
school community wanting a revival
can have one by reporting to me.
The meeting at Ringgold had fif-
teen additions up to Friday, with the
meeting still going. Bro. Brinkley
reports that the interest is growing
in the Saint Jo meeting, and that they
had three additions the first week.
I preached at Grayson Sunday as
supply for Bro. Rogers. There was
no service at night on account of the
rain. They have a good Sunday
school at Grayson led by Mrs. Cami-
ness, superintendent. She has the
work well in hand and it is going on
in a good way.
Rev. W. P. Rowland has been in
Gainesville the past week, and is back
winding up his business preparatory
to moving.
We were in the Valley View com-
munity and the oil field this past
week and made arangements to help
Bro. Aufill in a meeting in the field
beginning Sunday night, June 17. We
will be located on the Humble Oil Co.
Becke Bit shop. We urge all to co-
operate with us.
The B. Y. P. U. program at Nocona
Sunday afternoon was a success. Joe
L. Janeway, vice president, presided
in the absence of Miss Ruby Fay My
rick The program was carried out
as published and an interesting busi-
ness meeting was had. Joe L. Jane-
way was elected president; Jack
Newey vice pesident; Miss Edna
Withers, secretary-treasurer. Zone
chairmen are: Bowie zone, Mrs. J.
C. Wood; Saint Jo zone, Mrs. J. S,
Mosley; Nocona zone, E. W. McPher-
son. All other officers were appoint'
ed by the president by order of the
body. Our next meeting will be with
the Spanish Fort church the first Sun-
day in October.
On next Saturday night and Sun-
day morning I will preach at Salt
Creek school house, Sunday afternoon
at Whie, and Friday and Sunday
night at Lone Star.

My Town.
My town is the place where my
home is founded; where my business
is situated, where my vote is cast,
where my neighbors dwell and where
my life is chiefly lived,
It supports me as I must support
it. MY TOWN wants my citizenship,
not my partisanship; friendship, not
offishness; . cooperation, not dissen-
sion; sympathy, not criticism; my in-
telligent support; not indifference.
My Town supplies me with law and
order, trade, friends, education, rec-
reation, morals, and the rights of a
free born American. Therefore I
should believe in my town and work
for it.—Fort Worth Rotagmph.
