The road leading to the mines
must be improved at once. it we
would hold the steadily increasing
business of the camp. The work
done on the road some time ago
was all right as far as it went but
there was not enough of it, and in
some places repairs are needed on
the work done. 1t seems to the
writer that some kind of an ar
rangement can be made with the
team STEERS who are hauling to the
camp to bring back load of gravel
each trip. If this could be done
the road could be graded up in
good shape, and in a few weeks, by
an arrangement with the teamsters
it could be graveled. About Sl,OOO
would, we believe, put the road
from the state line to the center OF
the camp in good condition. And
past experience has proven that no
better investment than good roads
can be made.

a Letter

Editor Highland Recorder:
am so glad to see that YOU are

devoted to Education, that | must
beg space to say So"
Let me urge the importance OF
the May Campaign" No ques-
ton Of such value has ever been
discussed by the people as that of
education. But, it is NOT educa-
ton in the abstract which is de-
handing our attention. It's, chow
can the people afford better facili-
ties to all the youth of the land for
the Development Of the power
which as yet lies unused within
them"
EMBODIED in each one are latent
and dormant energies, "germlnant
and springing," which requires to
be educated, brought forth in the
greatness of their power-to turn
possibilities into powers.
Here are the youth, packed full
of faculties--physical, mental, NOR
ai,~~with almost 30 instincts; a
box of tools ready for use.
How to use these tools. how to
pat the faculties at WORK is the
main question. How to make the
most Of ourself. how to make one,

The blue grass sod of Highland

lambs for which the demand is III
creasing. Highland is therefore
deeply interested i'll one of the
greatest economic questions
of the day. Two blades Of grass
are needed to-day where one

and there are other things to do Of
equal importance-the need OF the
hour is educated, trained boys and
girls educated and trained to suit
the conditions under which they
must live and work.
The need is not for for more
schools, save in limited areas, but
better schools; not more teachers,
but better teachers, not more school
houses, but better. ones. equipped
with all the modern facilities for
useful and practical education.
