8. Road Club Project's 



Permanent road building as a rule is not the work of 

 boys and girls. But the building, maintenance and repair 

 of common earth and gravel roads is quite within the reach 

 of the boys ranging in age from twelve to nineteen. Two 

 different road projects are suited to club work. 



One project is known as the "School Road Dragging 

 Club," in which the pupils, under the leadership of the 

 teacher and with the advice of the road officer, take charge 

 of one mile of public highway near the schoolhouse, keep- 

 ing it well dragged and in repair for the season. A second 

 project permits individual pupils to take charge of one mile 

 of road in front of the homestead, keeping it carefully 

 dragged and in good repair during the summer.
