he had something on him; and the
grocery and dry goods clerks look
down upon the bricklayer, the carpen-

"obIect Lesson Road"

One of the Aberdeen, papers sug-
gests the advisability Of constructing
a piece of road that is really good
on stretch that is now bad enough
1t is proposed to have the town build
this piece as a demonstration of what
roads should be. The idea is an ex-
ceiIent one. 1t would pay the towns
to build pieces Of good roads leading
to them from every direction. If
this was done, the people in coming
into town would use and be made to
appreciate roads as never before. The
man living few miles in any direc-
ton would drive over the road lead
ing out to his home, and if it was
not good all the way, would soon
begin trying to have it made so. The
man beyond him would catch the fe
yer, too, and get busy to have it reach
him. In this way a good road would
be gradually extended until 1t went
to the county line. Example is By
far the strongest argument in favor
of a progressive proposition like this

of their efforts should be closely look

ROAD SENTIMENT GROWING.

It seems that the good roads" agi-
tation is sweeping over the entire
state, and that no county is free from
the infection This is very crafty
ing indeed to those who have so faith
fully advocated the Improvement of
road conditions for years with little
or no help from the people in gen
eral. Sixteen additional counties have
adopted the contract system within
the past twelve months, while only
one has abandoned the system In that
time. Even where it has been aban-
doned, other plans are being tried that
will likely lead to permanent better
ment. AT Corinth on July 4, big
picnic was given and parade Of
floats and decorated vehicles. A di-
lapidated cart and bony horse with
the proverbial rope harness was shown
as a result of poor roads in that coun-
ty. A pretty strong argument that
will do good in the long run. The
Indianola business league has petit
toned the supervisors to allow them
to work a section of the road and
has solicited the funds necessary to
put it in good shape. A large NUM-
Der of counties that have had the
contract system for several years and
found it good, have recently re-let
their contracts with larger pay and
more exacting specifications. The
idea that we can and should have
better roads at a reasonable cost is
growing and it will not be necessary
for the man now fifty to live to be
hundred to see many counties in
Mississippi with roads that are good
for S65 days in the year and that
two mules can easily pull five bales
of cotton over There is plenty doing
