H. E. Kemp, talking yesterday after noon on the subject of the wagon road to Globe, expressed an idea which, while not altogether a new one, has yet not heretofore been put so forcibly forward. He said: Ever since we had the meeting last week I have been thinking about this road question, and the more ! study it the more important it appears to me.

They all voted the services instructive and de- lightful
