I would not have anybody to under.
stand me as saying that the average
Virginia countryman is an automobile

may not live long enough to see it,
but l verify believe the day is not
very far distant when the farmers Of
Virginia will be marketing their crops
on automobiles of a kind of a wagon
make, and carrying their wives and
children to town and to church in an
| automobile of the carriage make. The
young farmers Of the old State are
beginning to look into these things,
and they are looking nightly into
them. too. The old fellows. God bless
them foreYermorc, can't SEQ quite as
we'll as the youngsters, because they
were born a little "furback," but the
boys are coming on, and they are COM
ing in twentieth century vigor. too.
They see all Of these things ahead,
and they are going to have them, If
the good road is the beginning OF it
all. and they arc thinking it is, they
are going to have the good road as
a starter. and the venerable politician
of tho old regime had better not get
in tho way. The fact is that the robust
Virginia boys of to-day arc getting
confoundedly tired Of these old ire

However. ali OF this side talk leads
me to say that in my humble opinion
the automobile interest and the good
roads interest arc very closely allied,
and | have not always been of that
opinion, either. Ever since the auto
mobile got out into the country l had
been reading in the rural weekly
papers how the autos came along and
frightened the unsophisticated country
horses to death. Thus ! had gathered
an idea, or maybe a whole batch OF
ideas, that the motor car was bad
thing for the rural districts, and, as
1 am always in sympathy with the
rural district idea. whatever 1t may
be- right or wrong, ! naturally KICKED
