The Long Island motor parkway and
the state and county roads which COM
plete the course over which the Van
derbilt cup race of 1908 was run is
thought by many to comprise about
the fastest bit of racing ground for
automobiles that was ever constructed.
Georgia folk, however, from Governor
Hokc Smith down to the little black
lad whose favorlte dainty Is water
melon, make a similar claim for the
twenty-siX mile circuit of prepared
roadway over which almost score OF
the swiftest automobiles IN the world
will race in and near Savannah on
Thanksgiving day In competition for
the $4,000 geld trophy and attending
cash prizes offered b. the Automobile
Club of America. Not alone do the in
habitants of the Empire State of the
South say that the southern raceway
is far faster than the one ON Long
Island. Those of the most skillfui and
daring motor car drivers in the his
tory of automobile racing who have
put their machines about the circuit IN
the southland say that from point of
speed and absence of danger there i.
no auto racing ground anywhere, at
home or abroad, that compares with
the one at Savannah.
Consequently lovers of the game OF
auto car racing are looking forward to
the smashing of records when the
grand prize race of Nov. 26 Is run,
says the New York Evening Sun.

urDs of the cities or in the towns in
stead of III the congeSted centerS. That
is something that requires an organized
campaign, but first it requires Il cur.
rent of right thought in the minds of
the people.
1t requires that everything should be
done that can be done to hold in the
existing towns and villages the trade
that now naturally centers there. Any
part of it, small or large that is di-
verted to any of the huge central mail
order concerns in the big cities and
thereby taken away from the locality
where it originates and belongs is an
influence that promotes just to that
extent the growth of the evil that is
eating at the heart of our national life
Whatever is needed to supply the needs
of every household in every rural COM
munity should be sold over the counter
of q local store and not through the
postoffice and the mail trade.
Then comes the question of the
growth of towns and villages. There
is where the country editors and mer-
chants can help themselves. Once get
it into the minds of the whole Amer
lean people that the salvation of the
| nation depends on the upSuilding OF
| the country towns and suburban vii
| lages-get the idea planted and deeply
| rooted 50 it will grow itself-and a
thousand influences will enter the field
| and enlist for this great campaign for
rural and country town and village
development to check the overgrowth
of cities, with all its resultant evils.
1t cannot all lie done at once. The
first thing is to get public Thought ac
lively aroused and turned into right
channels. There must be complete
common conception in the minds OF
millions of people of this new national
| ideal. Then there must be united, con
certed and vigorous action to realize
that ideal. The facts and argument:
| to support it must be disseminated
through great educational campaign

new NATIONAL IDEAL.
UpbuIding of Town and Village Up
builds the Race.

From an editorial article by George
II. Maxwell i'll MaXwells Talisman the
following pertinent extracts are taken:
There are many country merchants
who see their trade gradually slipping
away from them, leaving the country
town and going TO the great cities by
the channel of the mail order trade.
There are many country editors who
see the prosperity of their towns de-
pleted and circulation and advertising
income reduced for the same reason.
There are very few, however, who
realize that their problem is 4 national
one and that it is wrapped up i'll an
part of the great fundamental ques
ton whether this nation shall be per
petuated or shall be destroyed by the
physical degeneration of humanity, The
social unrest, industrial discomfort
moral ana political corruption and class
hatred bred in the city slums and ten
ements and certain to eliminate II
anarchistic crimes, riotous mobs ant
all destroying social upheavals as thu
] result of some long continued period
of industrial and commercial depres
sion
The fact is that the upbuilding OF
| the country town and suburban vii

/ against the poisonous social, moral
| physical and political consequences O

| question that rises above all others il
Importance as problem that this ma
ton must solve. Unless it does solv,
it it will suffer death from human de
generacy-the fate of so many nation
and civilizations that have risen in tn
past only to be destroyed. Ours will b
likewise destroyed unless we take hee
in time.
The danger arises from the conges
ton of population in cities and fror
nothing else.
The solution lies in checking the flu
ther growth of cities at the homes @
industrial workers and scattering thos
homes into and among suburban HON,
croft villages and in country town
and rural settlements.
To do that trade and industry mu:

ties, pay the difference between the
cost of transportation over the long
distance and that of local distribution
1t would therefore help the tendency
to concentrate industries which pro-
duce goods to be sent out in moderate
packages in congested centers of pop

these industries IN the small commu-

ing and not overcroWded people.
I'm like manner 1t would help build
up the great retail mail order houses.
1t would enable them to reach all
parts of the country and undersell the
local merchants, because it would cost
them no more to deliver their goods a
thousand miles away thap it cost the
local trader within his own village.
With free delivery it might cost less,
not because the actual cost was not q
