He was born, June 21, 1882, on a farm
at West Newbury, which until its sale

years ago.
Mr.. Smith was large-minded man,
an upright citizen and liberal supporter
of the Congregational church at West
| Newbury.
He married late in life, April 4, 1891,
Miss Abby H. Stuart, of Barnet.
Two years ago they sold their farm at
West Newbury, and bought residence
in this village, large brick house,
| they had completely repaired and re-
fitted hoping to pass serene old age
| with the society of Mrs. Smiths sister,
Miss Marion Stuart, now very i'll at
Brightlook Hospital.
Mrs. Smith was taken i'll while attend
ing the funeral of her brother. William.
and died at Brightlook Hospital, March
18th, of pneumonia. Mr.. Smith took
cold while Fastening to his wife's bed
side on Sunday, March ~, surviving her
only eight days.
They have been called away from a
wide circle of friends and their loss to the
church and the community is great one.

can, without difficulty, promote this
enterprise.
The country does not want good
electric roads and railroads alone.
What is needed most now is good
wagon roads. The question of good
wagon roads is vital in the problems
of transportation. 1t has been shown
that it sometimes costs more to move
a ton of hay or bushel of wheat ten
miles over an ordinary country road
than to transport it 500 miles by rail,
or 1000 miles by water Bad roads
are a menace to the trade of "a region
for the farmers frequently let their
crops go to waste from inability to
get them to market.
What is needed now is more short
distance roads between smaller and
large cities, and more good wagon
roads between the farms and the cen
terS of commerce.
