TORIC LENSES Deep curved lenses made by us are Toric lenses, but we call them Klatorik lenses. We have given the name Klatorik lenses to the Toric lenses made by us because we know that our Toric lenses are better made. Better facilities, higher grade lens-grinding machinery, longer experience, and a more intelligent application of the principles involved in making Toric lenses enable us to excel.

There are about 90 miles of highways constructed by the State, county and towns, Jointly known as the county roads. The town roads are built by the State and towns under the supervision of the County Superintendent of Highways and the Hoard of Supervisors of the county. There are about 1,000 miles oi sucn nign-ways Broome county. I Motorists ran Assist Authorities. In tho successful maintenance of these roads you motorists can play a very important part ily reporting defects noticed in construction while traveling over them, you can be of 'material assistance to the highway authorities.

I The appropriation of B0, 000. 000 for good roads improvement has been found lnautllclent for the construc- tlon of one-half of the roads really needed, and therefore an added ap- propriation of a similar amount is needed before tho reaction of public opinion seta in and before the services of the present good roads engineers are lost to the State. The Legislature must pass this bill of appropriation twice before It can be submitted for the approval of the voters, and providing that everything goes right, this would mean that the money would not be available before 1914.
