Some ladies' of the cities Of Lexing
on and Paris. Ky. have advertised
through their local papers. proposing to
..sist women to get an honest emylOys
neut. There arc doubtless women and
.irle OF Hickman and other places who
would greet such proposition from some
4 the influential ladies with joy, and
hey would do brave christian act In
his helping their less fortunate neigh
,ors. Ii ladies who can thus aid
would show their willingness to do SO,
hey could accomplish much good in every
community.
Thu road overseers OF Fulton couu
deserve special compliment for their
cad work this season. We wager that
,ur county roads are In better condition
low than they have been for 20 years
past. SO much for he road law agitation.
10 Luton failed to get his road bill
through, but his discussion OF the ques-
ion forced public attention to the imPor-
anee of good roads, and we see the pruits
n the good work now being done By over
Ie~rs. The agitation must continue til
popular sentiment agrees upon lsH that
will answer the needs Of our people. The
present road system answered the wants
II this section In the pioneer days, but
" hen we think 81 the immense increase in
III kinds Of farm products since then, and
IN all kinds Of general traffic, IL is clear
10 all intelligent men that ihis heavy in =
,reass demands something better than
The ordinary dirt roads. Our county
roads are usually good enough until you
get within the neigh borhood Of shipping
points, aad there you End the effects OF
continued use. Let our citizens cOmpass
notes, think Of the Advantages and dissd-
vsntages, AID finally agree upon some
good Law.
