MPi I^INIO Interesting feature of educational work is thu |j holding of conventions in ?V-/ connection with the build01m PHI I??pf of object lesson roads. Wliile the work is in progress, a convention Is called and the people come from far and near to witness the work of roail building and listen to instructive addresses. Such a ^ convention seldom adjourns without forming a permanent organization. I Mainly in tins way good roads asso- i i'iatlons have been formed in all sec- <j ttons, and by them the work of edu- t cation and agitation has been carried on. ( ,?At a great National convention for ] consideration of the road improvement t rjueBtiou, held in Chicago, in Noveui- 1 ber, 1000, the National Oood 1 toads As- \ sociation was organized, and it has { since grown until, with its affiliated i State, district and local associations, I it is without doubt the greatest or- t ganizatlon of the kind in existence. | i But it is not the only National organ- t ization of this kind.

Ii>| fact th<f greatr-nt actual accomplish- j incut of tlie movement is that it has | eenred the adoption of this pinr: In j ten Stales. The essential features <>f \ this plan are the creation of a Slate 1 Highway Commission, and the eo-oper* ation of the State with the coimtie.* < and towns in the work of road im- 1 jfr, provonlent, caeh hearing a fixed portion 1 L of the expense, though, no two States ; hare adopted exactly the name plan, i All tllrt nnWh?<i.l,>.n t Mf " 11 " aiuiil "I'HI" i to Pennsylvania and Maryland have ) adopted State aid, and the results ?e- t cured arc ro satisfactory that the popn- i larlty of the plan incrensca every year. ] In New .Terse? tho Htsfto pay* one- < illird of the rout of ro.nl Improvement, \ and die I,ep;islature now appropriate? \ *2r?0,(XK) annually. In Connecticut the i State pays two-thirds of the expense* ; and the annual appropriations arc ; $226,000. Massachusetts upends nearly half a million a year, the State paying throe-fourths of the cost. Iu Nov ioi? me Kinic pnys one-lmlf the cost. ' Yind the Inst Legislature made nn nf- 1 Aroprlntlon of $('.00,000 for tills pm-- ' pose. Pennsylvania's last Legislature ' appropriated ffl.ROO.OOO as n State fund, ' to be expended during six years, the 1 Ntnto paying two-third* of the coi?t ( of the roads built. All the other Stairs ' in thin part of the country have adopt' c od thin plan in some form. In these ' States the sentiment for National aid * Ih strong, it being argued that the only t ideally perfect and Just system of co- t operation in road building is one Jn i which the Federal Government enters i as an active factor. s 'A High Aim.-Xbe good ro*da move > ucnt has been steadily gaining in force or n dozen years, and during the past ^ wo years it bas gained at a greatly r ccelerated. rate. The aim of its \ riends and promoters is to make an ? ml of the unscientific piece-meal methds of road work now in vogue in tenriy an parts or the country, and lo ^ ubstitute therefor scientific methods, j ntelligent supervision, and co-operaion of Nation, State and local com- ^ nnnity in a united and co-ordinate j lYort for the improvement of the roads hrougliout the whole country. This is i high aim, and the undertaking is a lupendous one. Hut who will say that j t is too great for the American people o accomplish? AN HISTORIC WATCH.
