Wednesday morning at chapel, Mr. Winslow of the United States Good Road Department gave an interesting talk on the "Economics of Good Roads" "There are two things we can not escape in this world," said Mr. Winslow, "death and taxes." He made the statement that we pay more for bad roads than we do for good ones, and showed the many ways that the farmer pays for bad roads. He said that the building of good roads raises the price of land because people can get out to see the property more easily. Good roads also improve land value. Many examples where the land value was increased were cited. Mr. Winslow continued, edu cation is retarded as a result of poor roads. Many school chil dren are unable to attend school as a direct result of bad roads. The development of a county de pends upon the development of its roads. He concluded with the request that every student at the Uni versity advocate good roads in the community in which they live, as the future developnent of our State depends upon the young men and women of the State.
