 About Rural Route Roads

The unfortunate condition of the public roads of this section due in a measure to heavy rains during the past few months has caused our rural route men no small amount of worry and actual hardships, and that is not the worst of it. From a recent letter of the Fourth Assistant Postmaster General, it is learne ] that the route that shows abso- lute neglect in the matter of keeping passable roads may be discontinued. The letter says that the department requires that all roads over which rural service is laid out shall be maintained in a condition to be travelled with facility aud safety at all seasons of the year, other wise the department will seriously consider the withdrawal of service therefrom.
 The department regards the building and maintenance of roads as the best evidence of appreciation of rural service and it is highly essential that atten- tion be given the matter.
 Patrons of each of the sever al routes out of Green Forest should get together and lay their routes out in sections and go over them within the coming few weeks and mend them and throw the rocks out, if nothing more. If you live on a route and want to keep the service you would better get busy before some inspector comes along and sees what your carrier is now having to put up with.

LAST October this country reached the end of a prosperous era lasting ten years. It has been getting gradually worse since that time, but we are all hoping that the dawn of better things is at hand. It will be ex. pecting too much to believe that the coming decade will be as easy to pick up money in as the one which ended last year. History records no time when fortunes were made as rapidly as they were then, and when the laboring man received as much compensation for his work. The optimists say that we are on the eve of prosperity again, but it would be we'll for all to spend less than they earn until we have better proof than we have at present that better times have come to stay.

ONE of the greatest things in the upbuilding of a town is to have live merchants who are not afraid to spend little money for printers ink. The man who has a special bargian in his store, or an extra good stock, and lets the people know it through the med ium of his local paper and by scattering circulars broadcast over the adjoining country, helps his town as we'll as himself. He attracts people to the town who would otherwise go to other towns. Then if these people find the goods as advertised, the mer- chant who does the advertising has won permanent customer both for himself and the town. The people of community owe 8 great debt to the merchants who advertise. If none were to do so, the town would soon be a dead one.

TAFT and Bryan have been nominated as standard bearers respectively of the two great political parties of the country. No fault can be found with either, morally or. intellectually, and they differ only in measures. Both stand we'll with the nation as citizens of high character and quite competent to fill with credit any office in the gift of the people. It would seem that the welfare of the country would be preserved with either of them. Just wait until the partisans put on their war paint, and we shall find that two more incompetent and dangerous men were never before nominated, and that the country will soon be on the high. road to ruin and desolation. We shall have quite diversity of views from now until the election in November.

SPEAKING of so- called religious
 debates, Eld. Warlick told a good
 story to illustrate the force of some of the arguments presented
 by his adversary that is really worthy of a broader application than that given it by the distin-
 guished elder. He said that once
 upon a time a brilliant young
 son proposed to prove to his father that every dog has ten tails by the following syllogism: No dog has nine tails and every dog has one tail more than no dog, hence every dog must have ten tails. This class of phyloso- phy constitutes a good deal of the stock and trade in every de- nominational debate. By cun. ningly or even honestly devised illustrations one conclusion may be reached, while an entirely different or even an opposite con- clusion may worked out from the same scriptures in the hands of advocates of different doctrine. The best way, after all, it seems is to take no mans idea on the teachings of the bible. People who have sound and abiding faith generally do most of their own thinking. How can ques- lions that have been bones of con- tentions between the greatest theoligious of the world for cen- turies be settled? Echo answers, how can they be settled?
