1T certainly did," says
Helen.
One of our patrons said:
ANY one Of the films shown
last week was worth the
price-but The Gray Of the
Dawn, with the full old Bio
graph Company, handling
the lines, certainly exceeded
all expectations.
Now, gentle reader, what
we say don't amount to
much, because we're "kind-
er crazy" about good pic
lures, but when our patrons
people who know good
pictures from bad ones
come up and talk like that to
US, there's something do
ing" believe us-especially
when these statements are
unsolicited by us, and also
considering the fact that we
don't owe the parties in
question in any manner, or
have a reciprocity treaty
with them.
Actually, we didn't hear a
single kick yesterday. On
;he level, when we used to-
put up some films we
thought were good we got
some awful "hot shots, " but
that's all off now, since
we've signed up for Reliance
with some other top notch
and now, thank good
ness, we're satisfied our
TROUBLES are over "

ROCK ROADS AND FARMS.

tages of Macadam Highways.
Elijah Carel. who owns farms in
Jackson and Clay counties, Mo-. is
very much in favor OF rock roads,
He lives three miles west Of Blue
Springs on n macadam highway and
says it is hard to estimate their value
to farmers.
"If l were going to buy another
farm in Clay county would pay 500
an acre more for the same land on a
rock road than away from that kind
Of a road Mr.. Carel said. "If Clay
county farmers once lived on rock
road and realized its worth to them
they would not hesitate to pay $40 an
acre for the improvement. Over in
Jackson county we can haul big loads
to market at any time when the mar
kets are the highest and when we
could not get there at all on dirt roads.
1t Is a great satisfaction and pleas
ure, too. to know that we can get over
the roads well at any time we may de-
sire to go. When the Clay county
farmers get rock roads their only re-
greet will be that they didn't get them
sooner
Mr.. Carel paid $50 an acre for his
farm of 100 acres in Jackson county
five years ago and has refused 1925
an acre several times for it since. He
believes it is easily worth $50 an
acre because Of the rock road. All of
which is some different from 500 in
Clay county-the same distance from
Kansas City.

WHAT ONE COMMUNITY DID.
Result Of Road Dragging by the Farm
ers at Cameron, Mo.

Result Of Road Dragging by the Farm
ers at Cameron, Mo.
In view of the general awakening
for good roads | will tell the farmers
who are interested of the wonderful
Improvement that has been brought
about in dirt roads by persistent use
Of the road drag. In 1902 the writer
conceived the idea that the farmers In
the vicinity of Cameron, Mo-, should
have the benefit of rural free delivery.
The idea was ridiculed, but persistence
won. The first carrier that left the
Cameron postoffice was accompanied
by a brass band over the entire route,
and every farmer that had prepared
his mail box for the free delivery was
'serenaded." This created an interest.
But our roads were in a miserable
condition. full of mudholes and deep
rutS.
At the suggestion of Postmaster Fill
son we held a good roads" picnic in
Cameron for the purpose of emphasiz-
ing the necessity of good roads in or
der to secure the rural free delivery.
The meeting was addressed by d.
Ward King, the 'evangel of good
roads in Missouri. who explained the
value of the King drag. and other
speakers. OF the thousands who at
tended the picnic many pledged them
selves to constant use of the drag
AS n result we have now in place of
mudholes and ruts well rounded, level.
solid roads in all this vicinity. We
have eight rural carriers out Of Cam
eron instead of the one we escorted
with brass band, and since that
event land values have more than
doubled in this locality. Now even the
renters have caught the spirit Of the
good roads movement, and there is no
doubt that the voluntary dragging Of
the roads will be kept up.-James Will
liams in Kansas City Star.
