National Highway
Week, October 4-10
Even elephants are celebrating

4-10, because even elephants
know the value of good roads.
There’s a surge of highway
building in Africa and Asia, but

But they always wait patiently
for the road to clear, because ev-
erybody knows it is foolish to
honk at an elephant or try to
bluff him.
