a highly interesting lecture at the
First Methodist church Monday
evening. While only a fair sized
audience was present, the verdict

by the W. III. NJ s. of the church.
A special feature of the evening was
an excellent vocal quartet, render

Gil, George and Collie.

road that was built by the county
court two years ago, and which has
been the occasion of upjusti6able
newspaper criticism, but which has
turned out to be road that will
stand for all time. If the Oak Creek
road can be made. equally excellent
as a highway, then all the roads
leading into the county seat will be
practically without bad spots.
