AS TO ROADS.

A good friend of The Herald and
News and a subscriber for many
years remarked to the editor the 9TH
er day that he could find nothing in
the paper but goods roads. Well, we
gre sorry that up to this time good
roads have been confined to the edito-
rial columns of The Herald and News
instead of having them as realities
throughout the county.
We plead guilty to the charge OF
being somewhat of a crank On the
subject of good roads and we desire
to say that we expect to keep up the
agitation. If our friend is already
convinced that we ought to have good
roads and is willing to help to Sc
cure them, he may just skip these
articles about roads.
We are glad to say that the senti-
ment in favor Of building roads is
growing in Newberry county for it Is
true that before we can accomplish
any great reform Or make any real
progressive step, it is necessary to
create public sentiment in favor of
such reform or step.
1t is also true that those who are
pioneers in this work receive no cred
it for it, when the reform comes or
the step is taken. We are mo- con-
cerned about this, however, if we can
only secure the sentiment su1hclen1ly
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1910-05-13

strong to get good roads in this Duh
ty. We are sure that sentiment is
growing and that it will not be long
before We have good roads because
the development of the farm and the
prosperity of the farmer means that
he will not be contented with the
things we have been dignifying by the
name of public highways.
We can not refrain in this connec-
ton from copying the following state
ment by the commissioner Of agricul-
ture, Mr.. Thomas B. Hudson, of Geor-
| gia, in regard to the public roads Of
Sumter county Of that State, and we
hope that the time is not far distant
when Mr.. Watson, u own commits
sioner of agriculture, after a visit to
Newberry will be able to say yer bet
ter things of the Newberry roads:
"It was the first opportunity that I
had had for some time of observing
the work that has been done on the
roads," said Commissioner Hudson. Il
found the roads of Sumter as good
as any in the State, and I was able to
make the distance we covered in a
time that would have been unbeliev-
able a few years ago.
"The progressive communities
which have taken the advantage OF
the new road law and are working
convicts, have already begun to rea-
lie great benefits from it. I know OF
no one greater stimulus to the set
Element of a farming community
than good roads. Good roads draw i'm
migrants and the kind of immigrants
we need in the Development of the
State.
"Why, in Sumter county, a farmer
can haul ten bales of cotton with a
two-mule team now with greater ease
than he could two bales ten years ago.
The same applies to the transporta-
ton Of fertilizer, grain and other
heavy loads. 1t does not take an ex-
pert mathematician to figure out the
great pecuniary saving to the farmer
in the matter of getting to and from
his market town, which is found in
good roads"
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1910-05-13

Every time we travel the public
road from Newberry to Prosperity
we are the more impressed with the
Importance Of changing it so as to
avoid the grade crossings of the rail
roads and we can not conceive how
any one who owns land or lives along
the road could object. On the contrary
it seems to us that all of them ought
to be heartily in favor CT the change
and anxious to have it made. And
the railroads should cooperate.
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1910-05-13

We would like to know if there is
a man, woman or child in Newberry
who has travelled theSmile ef govern
ment road between Newberry and
Prosperity who is not heartily in fay
or of more miles of such road in the
county even if it cost $500 the mile.
If there is one we would like to hear
from him and to have him give his
reasons. Country life wuold be a lux
ury with such roads all over the
county and the cost would be a good
dividend paying investment.

suppose will be here ten years from
now. Every memorial some have
passed away. I was reading a poem
that I thought was very appropriate
for Memorial day. I made a note OF
it as follows:
Cover them over with beautiful flow
Deck them with gar1ands, those
brothers of ours;
Lying so silent by night and by day,
Sleeping the years of their man
hood away.
Years they have marked for the joys
of the brave,
Years they must waste in the sloth
of the grave;
All the bright laurels they fought to
make bloom,
Fell to the earth when they went
to the tomb.
Give them the need they have VOL
in the past,
Give them the honors their merits
forecast;
Give them the chaplets they won in
the strife,
Give them the laurels they lost with
their life.
Cover them over-yes, cover them
oVer-
Parent, and husband, and brother.
and lover,
Crown them in your heart those dead
heroes Of ours,
And cover them oVer with beautiful
flowers.
Cover the thousands who sleep far
away
Sleep where their friends can not
find them today;
They who in mountains, and hillside,
and dell,
Rest where they wearied, and lie
r,hara +hau fail
Softly the grass blade screeps round
their repose,
Sweetly round them the wild flow
ret blows;
Zephyrs Of freedom fly gently Ger
head,
Whispering names for the patriots
dead.
So in our minds we will nam them
once more;>
So in our hearts we will cover
them DER;
Roses, and lilies, and Violets blue,
Bloom in our souls for the brave
and the true.
Cover them overvyes, cover them
over
Parent, and husband, and brother,
and lover;
Think of the far-away heroes Of ours,
And cover them over with beautiful
flowers.

THE IDLER.

Speaking about Memorial day the
old vets certainly enjoyed the day in
.Newberry and it seemed to me that
there were more here than usual. The
dinner which the good women pre-
pare and serve is getting to be a fea-
ture of the day in Newberry and it
takes a. lot of work, but the pleasure
given these old fellows is ample re-
compense. There we're two old fel-
lows here, they tell me, who are over
90 years old-Mr. Joel Cresp and MI.
Jacob Shealy. They were as spry as
any of the boys and enjoyed the au-
tomobile ride. Well, it won't be long
until we are all gone to join our COM
rades in the gerat beyond.

tiful piece Of word painting. I wish
I could write like that. I would start
out and do nothing but write and
speak.
The editor has sent me another
ebulition-is that a good word?-I
haven't time to consult Mr.. Webster
from Uncle Eli. I think Uncle Eli is
trying to take my job from me. Well,
if he wants it he can just have it,
that is all. But here is what he says:
Mr.. Idler: I have no objection to
you getting a park if you can. I
think it would be very nice in you.
Can't you understand what I meant
by saying we had { enough idler's
parks in the city. I don't neal a
park as you want and I hope you
don't take it that way. l repeat it
again: I'VE have enough places in the
city for the idlers and loafers to
amuse themselves" You were not
over at Wilowbrook Saturday as you
promised me you would, but that's
alright, I saw you Saturday p. m. on
the streets hunting something to
write about as usual. I started to
stop and ask you if you knew what
park spelt, but I vas afraid I would
scare you, and that is n thing that
is against my will, to have any one
scared Of me.
i
Talking of soaring people I suppose
you thought you would scare me off
by replying, but I tell you here I neV-
er was scared but one time, and that
was when a lion got after me. You
bet your life I did some running. YOU
think you know who T am; that is al
right if you do; but to prove that you
do just write. me a short personal
letter and I'll answer it, and 1 bet I
won't miss who you are. How did
you like it at Willowbrook Saturday
night? I know you enjoyed it if you
are not jealous of the factory people"
as some people 7 know are, and those
people do not live in West End. The
park is very beautiful now, but don't
you think it would help its appear
ance if MI. Wright would have a row
Of willows on the Brooklyn side as
he has on the other side. I heard he
said it wasn't as large as he. wanted
it and was going to enlarge it next
year. Talking about a park, yes I love
the Willowbrook, and I 80 every
chance I can get, but what will you
do for music in Eastside park. Don't
you know you can't get a band over
there to excel the Newberry concert
band, second to none in South Caro-
Lima. T heard a lady say to her
friend at the park the other night
las she was looking at the skaters
enjoying the joys of a park, Come,
lets go from here; this reminds me-
of cats looking at Kittens" Yes, that
is it. We are the kittens and the cats
| do not want us to have a good time.
But never mind, Mess-s. Zach Wright
and Marion Davis are still with us,
cld will do every thing for our JOY
and comfort that is in their power.

not let them take their dear old wives

of you know the wives had it as hard
as some of the soldiers did. So why
not give them a little enjoyment
