His occupation was to supply food for surveying parties, find camping grounds, and on the side watch for possible runways for the road.

He purchased of land at any price 10 cents an acre, held them, when the country was opened, sold them to Easterners.

Several years ago he sacrificed a parcel of land at $235 for each and every acre. While narrating this, El Comancho dryly suggested that the bulls and bears of a certain large city "go Weat and learn about What Real Blizzard Is Like He also described blizzards of the prairie, and told how to obtain protection against their rigors, The blizzards out there, he said, scoffing at the, eastern variety, travel along the ground, and are very fierce.

This was the seventh in a series of ten lectures by the Women's City Club and the College Women's Club of Rochester on the general subject of "Human Relations."

Four -County Bloc Will Ask Brake on Rural Aid Albany Bureau Democrat and Chronicle Albany, Jan. 14-First steps toward formation of a four-county bloc to oppose further rural aid measures at the expense of more populous counties were taken today when Assemblymen from Monroe, Westchester, Erie and Nassau counties gathered after the legislative session to discuss the effect of rural-aid legislation already proposed. The sole result of today's gathering was that representatives of the four counties decided to take copies of the Pratt and Wicks bills home over the week-end and take them up with their county leaders and local legislative bodies. Another meeting will be conducted next Tuesday.

The Pratt "dirt road" bill, which is to be amended to carry out recommendations of Governor Roosevelt's Agricultural Advisory Commission, provides that all towns shall have available at least $100 A mile for upkeep and maintenance of dirt roads. The state would contribute to each town the difference between $100 and the amount raised by the town by taxation at a three mill rate on a full valuation basis, The bill would have the state contribute much greater -amounts than at present for acquisition of rights of ways for roads. Counties with more than 200,000 population would be required to acquire such rights of way entirely. Assemblyman Harry J. McKay of Rochester took the lead in calling today's meeting.

The fourcounty bloc admits it is in a less advantageous position to fight this year, than last, united as both political parties are now on the rural relief program. Three Rochesterians Enlist in U.S. Army Sergeant. W. J.

DURER PLACE IN HISTORY OF ART ETERNAL Artist's Work Expounded by Dr. Eiserhart at Divinity School "The position of Albrecht Durer in the history of art 13 eternal," stated Dr. Ewald Eiserhart, prolessor of German and lecturer in the history of art at the University of Rochester in a lecture of philosophical trend given. Monday evening in Alvah Strong Hall of the Divinity School, which was.

well filled for the occasion. Dr. Eiserhart, a student of Durer'8 works, attributes the greatness of the Nuremburg painter, etcher and draughtsman to his ability to rise above conflicting circumstances presented first in the form of the opposed Gothic and styles of art second in trance, tremendous religious conflicts brought about by Martin Luther and the rise of Protestantism. In the end the famous German artist knew that true art was independent of all styles. "Durer, the outspoken personality, became an indivdual in a way that may serve as an inspiration to the youth of today surrounded by thousands of conflicting influences," is the opinion of the lecturer.

Keen interest in nature, in plant and animal life and in landscapes were also determining factors in shaping the artist's work. Working in wood, copper and oil Durer showed his versatality. He is best known for a self portrait, his masterpiece, "The Four and A series of "Master Prints" and renowned etchings. The last two years of his life were spent in scholarly pursuits. At this time he wrote several books, including "Science of Prospective and Projection" and "Human Proportiona." The lecture was illustrated with lantern slides showing the various mediums that Durer worked in with outstanding examples of each.

West Henrietta Road Bridge Plans Making Final plans are being made at Albany for the construction this vear of two state bridges in the West Henrietta Road, to be built at a cost of nearly $220.000, says Howard E. Smith, Rochester dis. trict engineer of the New York State Department of Public Works. One of structures will be built over the Barge Canal in the West Henrietta Road, and will join the Mount Hope Avenue improve ment recently completed by the city. The new bridge will be 40 feet wide, and will have sidewalks.

The present bridge is only 30 feet wide, and besides being too narrow, is said to be too weak to carry the required traffic. The other bridge will be constructed over Honeoye Creek in West Henrietta Road, nine miles south of the Barge Canal. The principal reason for this structure is to do away with the dangerous "double approaches at both ends of the bridge. Nearly 1,000 feet of new pavement will be constructed. and the job will cost nearly $70,000.

The bill went in last week under the auspices of Assemblymen Jenks and Emanuel Koveleski, Rochesterian and president of the State Branch, Hotel and Restaurant. Employees International arrived here soon afterwards, "We are against the bill," said Mr.

Koveleski. "Always have been and always will be. It is a step backward. When the bill has public hearing, the Legislature will get some idea of just what the opposition amounts to."
