School Notes.

The high school played Benson at
Benson Saturday. The first hall
started out with Benson's ball. They
made big gain around right end and
things looked good for Benson but
Mcdonald came to the rescue and
made beautiful tackle. Inability OF
the Benson team to hold the line re-
suited in Anderson's touchdown.
The goal kick failed. The first half
ended and 0 in Morris favor.
In the second half Morris steadily
forced the ball to the goal posts,
Anderson making another touchdown
on an off tackle play. Anderson once
more failed on his goal kick. Stone
made touchdown on criss cross
and Borrill's kick was successful, the
ball sailing over beautifully. This
ended the 1st. game in Morris favor,
16 to O. Another game is expected
the 23rd.
Schedule for games is as follows:-
Second team Oct. 9th at Morris.
Wahpeton Oct. 18th at Wahpeton.
Benson Oct. 23rd at Morris.
Glenwood Oct. 3oth at Glenwood.
Glenwood Nov. 9Th at Morris.

Wher the jury retired he chatted
nferrily with his young wife, who sat
at his side during the entire trial
He claims not to have known any
thing from the time he took the
whiskey on the morning of the fatal
day until he awoke under arrest in

morning while the sentence was
being pronounced, and when tho Ver-
dict was read Saturday night he did

WHAT GOOD ROADS MEAN.
They Raise Value of Land from 100
TO 200 Per Cent.

Editor Courier: l see that many
sections of our State are looking for
ward with much interest to the To-
cation of public thoroughfare from
New, York to Atlanta, suitable for
touring cars. Each section desires
to obtain the location of the road
for the advancement of good roads in
its own county, as an object lesson
for road making,
Now, Oconee county contains all
the necessary elements or material
for good roads, and why not make
an effort to get the location Of the
road through Oconee? If we make
Greenville aud Easley objective
points along the route, it fol-
lows that Seneca will be another
most available point, thence through
Oakway to KnoX's Bridge, to Lavo-
MIA, to Commerce, to Atlanta In
order to secure this route we will
need some work in widening the
road, while very little grading will
be required to make it an ideal road
for touring as we'll as for local travel,
Tor 1t is not designed to restrict it's
use to touring alone.
On recent visit in the neighbor-
ing counties in Georgia-Franklin
Banks and Jackson--l saw great in
terest manifested in good roads, and
am fully convinced. that Georgia has
developed a plan for working the
roads worthy of imitation by our
own state. The system will give the
finest roads in the South.
The value of good roads was dem
onstrated to me a few years ago
while on a visit to Richmond and
points in Kentucky. They had
Turnpike" roads for toll (but now
free) in the Blue Grass region of the
State. The lands adjacent to the
road would sell from $10O to $125
per acre within two miles of the
road, but receding from that dist
| ance prices ran down to $50, $40 and
even as low as $25 per acre. The
proposed road would have the same
effect here when established.
We do not desire to provoke a SEN
sational boom on the subject, but a
real live interest in good roads, and
an honest effort to improve our sys-
tenn of working the roads,, and gene
raj uplift Of our whole country, and
for that end we solicit the co-opera-
| ton OF all persons on the route, and
the personal interest of the Super
visor and the County Commissioners.
Yours for improved roads,
