enough before to enable me to infer the cause correctly He was on the ragged edge with the young lady while she was on the rag ged edge between him and another fel low a civilian being uncertain which to accept Ned hoped that if he could get to Atlantic City while she was there he could clinch the matter If not he believed that the other man would In time get the girl A civilian doea not necessarily to ask per mission to go where he likes but a soldier Is on or on duty under or ders of a superior If Perkins could told the colonel the circumstances would have got his leave e take his

alike but were the same height and build It would necessitate your shaving off your mustache I couldnt raise one at once I would do that for you But your hair Is a molasses candy color white mine Is

least searching But I kept a stiff upper lip and without noticing walked away another gun and began the sergeant In orders The colonel passed on with his visitors but I know that ho bad noticed something about mo that did not look like Perkins Before for gun instruction had passed I went to Perkins quarters thinking it possible that the colonel would send for him in order to get a closer inspection of biro 1 had scarce ly arrived when there was a rap at door and there stood colonels orderly The commander oxalrcs Lieutenant Perkins to report at the headquarters office said the orderly saluting Very well I replied and order ly Withdrew I should notified May of game I had to play so that if occasion required I might secure her assistance I had called upon her but she was dining out and I did not see her On my way to tho colonels office his quarters and found her sitting on porch Joined her and told her of the critical position both of myself and of Perkins Do you think your conscience would permit you to vouch for I asked her My conscience will permit a white lie if I can thereby benefit a friend was tho reply Very well I would suggest that you go to your fathers and bo ready when I enter to make him believe I urn Mr Perkins left mo to put on a hat and when she camo back took walk leading to office I waited till saw her enter then followed her When I reported to the colonel ho had his In his hand getting out some bills which he gave to her On seeing me she How do you do Mr Perkins Where have you kept yourself for so long You not been to see mo in age It was plainly evident from tho way tho colonel blinked at mo that ho had sent for mo to And out if I were the ho had seen on parapet Evidently I did not look to him like Perkins and I must looked very llko myself But he could not trust his own eyesight dared not take with his daughter as to my Identity Finally he looked an order to her to proceed her way but she declined to leave me unprotected and resuming her seat Indicated that she would remain until her father had transacted his with me Ho had nothing of Importance to com municate and after giving me some improvised Instructions as to he desired the men instructed In concern ing the guns he dismissed me walked In the direction May would take on leaving the office and when she came out joined her curious to know what If anything concerning me had passed between her and her father after my departure She told me that he had seemed to be thinking of my resemblance to myself Instead of to Perkins but that to question her would ho to confess that his eyesight was failing and ho could not bring to do so Fearing that I might bo required to pass a second examination Invited May to an excursion up the river that would keep me away for the rest of the day I had no right thus to absent myself but if the matter were ralBed having been ministering to the pleas ure of the commanders daughter I felt assured that no notice would bo taken of the breach of discipline May was good enough to remain away with me till the brightness of day had passed and her father could not see In the dark I thought that since I was aiding my friend Perkins to propose for a wife I might do some thing for myself in a like direction and during day I told May my story Since the matter had been pending between us for some time I was not surprised at an acceptance Perkins waked me up before reveille the next morning to tell me that he l I How many of the many blessings that boon upon us In this wonderful country of ours We h been so blessed with

In which May and I and and Ned figured as leading ladles and gentlemen INSPECT CONCRETE week a party of Canadian Highway and Municipal Officials interested in good roads visited Detroit and Wayne County Mich to learn how this progressive American community is building a comprehensive concrete road system of which it is justly proud Wayne County now has nearly one hundred miles of the concrete roads In the- world one stretch of which extends in a smooth unbroken surface for a diBtance of miles passing through the villages of Wayne to where the road was being built The cars of sand stone and cement sidetracked on the rait- way line nearest the place of opera- Hon and unloaded with a steam shovel into a string of small dump cars holding one and a half cubic yards These ears are hauled by a donkey engine In some a number of miles to the spot where the materials will be mixed to make the road The narrowgauge track over which the miniature train runs is laid in sections that can be easily handled by two men- Properly cur ing the finished road takes seven days As soon as the concrete has sot is covered with two inches sand and then wet down with a hose daily this permits the whole mass of concrete to harden uniformly and eliminates surface cracks that would otherwise appear under the the sun As a whole the methods used by Wayne County Road Commissioners are very simple and undoubtedly most economical for the construction of an extensive and permanent system at any rate they are the re sult of years of study ft by able engineers conditions with which Wayne Count j

could so th It will return a be used In place of most of it dividend instead of being spent ti fill Wayne County began building coir tip the mud holes roads in and the stretch laid In that year was careful ly Inspected by the party at close range and the concensus of opinion was that it is now as good as when put down and the maintenance cost has been practically nothing during the five years that it has been used A striking contrast is shown when the condition of this concrete stretch is compared with other stretches of the samet road built at the same time of other materials and at ap- a very novel proposal Seldom has there been a man more fertile in suggestion than Mr but it was always his desire to find out the Ideas of other men The Ad vance recalls how on one at a meeting of a Hoard of Sunday School managers one of the me inters 4 proximately the same cost but which now resembles the Rocky Road to and must be re built in the near future One of the engineers expressed the opinion that if Wayne County could afford to have such excellent roads there no excuse for Canadian com munities to delay the building of systems that will be as good as the Comity roads for there are
