The Sequatchie Valley is beauti-

sec the county for the dreadful
roads,
A go-cart, a carriage, a wagon or
an automobile are out Of The ques,
ton. Only mule and man who
has lost all sense Of feeling, physi-
cal, moral. political and religious,
can travel such roads, | was gong
to say, but | viii change it and say
only man who has infinite pa
thence, unending endurance, and
who has vowed never to break the
second commandment should risk
his life or his reputation upon
them.
Nature gave to the valley beauti-
fuI scenery, fertile yielding soil.
and such environments should pro
duce progressive, public.spiriled
men, Every man in the county
who opposes any measure whatsoN
ever that assures us good roads
should be buried alive to the tune

Rattle his bones over the stones,
Only a poor pauper whom nobody
owns "
When Rome OF old conquered
the then known world, she hewed
her way into every country by the
building of the famous Roman
roads. and civilization followed fast
in the way of every Roman road,
There is nothing else under the
sun so civilizing as well kept roads
wherever you find them tor you
can count on good schools, thrifty
churches, and prosperous people.
The man who hauIs his produce to
market over fue road holds his
head more erect, carries himself
mere proudly than the man who
has all the style thumped out of
him jolting over the stones and ine
to the ruts. Progress and prosper
ity go hand in hand with good
roads. Let us all join bands and
girdle the county with system Of
fine roads.

succeeding Capt. Edward McGrath.
He had inherited in a large meas

rather than by force, and soon he
was on lips of praise and in the
hearts of those associated with him

Punch was honored and loved for
his real worth. He began in bust
ness in the stores when a mere roy,
his value told there; and soon he
was leader of the force and re-
ceiving the highest compensation.
From this position in the Louis
vile Store with Messrs. HAYS and

a guard in the State Penitentiary.
and with the first vacancy he be-
cane Deputy Warden and had ho
lived would doubtless have been
honored with the highest position. |
