Good roads knit the city and the

the farmer all the benefits of city mar

the health and pleasures of country air

OF 100000 for macadam roads in Shaw

1t would be shame and disgrace
for Shawnee county to allow Is miles
of good roads to be destroyed b. time
and the weather. Rather, these roads
should be multiplied by others, all built
of macadam and kept up in as good
shape as the state house grounds, the
sidewalks of a town or the path to the
church or school house.
The law fixes the responsibility for
the care of these roads. Public senti-
ment should generate action of some
kind in the matter.
