What has the country profited iD the material sense by reason of this

 while his wages have been increased they have not increased in propor- ton to the increase in the cost Of living. In addition to the foregoing, the price of fuel has materially in creased.

H. LaPrade of Me ridian Miss, preach the commencement sermon. It was a masterful effort He used as his text First Corinthians, 1:22-23-24: For the Jews require sign and the Greeks seek after wisdom; but We preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumbling block, and unto the Greeks foolishness; but unto them which are called both Jew and Greeks, Christ the Power of God and the wisdom of God. Dr. LaPrade said that the church was better and purer today than it had ever been His theme was "The All-Suffi- cheney of Christ" He, Christ, will do for all-the Jew and Greek.

HARTSELLE WANTS
 SHARE OF ROADS

HartseIle, June 7.-(Special.)-A big mass meeting of citizens was held here today in the city hall answering the summons of the members of the central road campaign committee in the last campaign for good roads. The meeting was called primarily to see that justice be done the citizens in the Third and Fourth districts of the county. The con tract for road work in District No. 8 has been let since last summer and not a shoveful of dirt has been moved in this particular district The meeting was held at 8 a. m., and considering the fact that it was so early in the morning quite a lot of country people were present.
 County Commissioners J. D. McClana- han, J. M. Jackson and J. A. Forman were present and they all spoke as be- ing with the sentiment as expressed by the people assembled. The plan as out lined in the circular that was scattered all over Morgan county said the same number of miles should be built in each district, and that the bikes should begin at marked places on the line of railroad and go east and west. Up to this time all the work had been done at the De- caturs and Falkville.
 The main reason for the injunction that was issued against the commissioners court of the county was to stop tho spending of money within the corpor- ate limits of the municipalities of New Decatur and Fairview Since the injunc- ton was issued work has ceased in these corporations and the company has moved to the country line and working away from the city. The people are thoroughly aroused over the road prop osition and unless they can get fair play more injunctions will probably follow. :.
 Three pretty days in this section of the country have sent the farmers back to the fields, and they are now busy with the oats and wheat harvest. There js a fine stand of each crop planted and if the week continues pretty all the plant ing will be done
