Good Roads Movement Bears Fruit
Frequent evidence is forthcoming
of the fruit of the Georgia good roads
automobile endurance contests inau-
gurated by The Constitution and held
just month ago.
Not only is 1t apparent along the
routes over which these contests were
held, but other counties are busy with
view to securing improved and con-
nected roadways which lead some
where, and which bring them into
closer contact and communication
with other trade centres.
The routes themselves are now well
established avenues of travel between
Atlanta and Augusta, Savannah, fitz-
gerald and Albany, as we'll as inter-
mediate points, and are coming into
daily and general use as such.
Realizing the importance, not only
of maintaining these routes, but of
improving them as rapidly as posi-
Bile, the counties through which they
pass have not been content simply
with putting them in shape for the
contests; they are still at work upon
them and will continue to better
them.
A word of assurance and apprecia-
tion in this connection comes from
Mayor p. II. Lovejoy, of Hawkins
vile, who, in acknowledging receipt
of the first prize of 5000, awarded to
Pulaski County for the best roads be-
tween Fitzgerald and Macon, says:
"Our people are greatly pleased
with the result of the contest and
your courteous treatment in the mat
ter. We not only appreciate the fact
that Pulaski County won the prize,
but we feel gratified that our effort
in building good roads through the
county will bear fruit in the future.
For myself and in behalf of the citi-
zens of Pulaski County, l wish to
thank The Constitution for its noble
effort in bringing about the good
roads movement in the South, and Sc
curing route through this section
of our State"
The good roads contests and their
attendant prizes were but a second
dIyt III Tie llONGHCul.
The real prize is what each county
has achieved in the direction of bet
ter roads.
Just to the extent that the compet-
ing counties have improved the roads
passing through them, and, more par
ticularly, those roads which give them
access to the world beyond their own
borders, in that measure are they en-
joying prize of lasting value, the
fruits of their own effort.
That the contests. prizes and agita-
tions attendant upon them have, in
many instances, stimulated to greater
and more productive effort cannot be
questioned; it is because of this good
effect that The Constitution has de-
termined, as has been announced, to
arrange other State good roads con-
tests next year, with view to bring
ing every section of Georgia into the
movement.
We are, as yet. only upon the
threshold.
There is monumental work to be
done and all Georgia should have a
shoulder at the wheel.-Atlanta Con-
stitution.

An Approved Riu.

The Congress will be asked to pass
a bill bearing upon interstate COM
merce In intoxicants, which has been
favorably considered by able lawyers,
and which 1t Is believed will meet
both the need for protection in pro-
hibition territory and the objections
OF those who have believed former
proposed measures to be unconstitu-
tional.

THE HAPPIEsT HEART.

Who drives the horses Of the sun
Shall lord it but day;
Better the lowly deed were done,
And kept the humble way.
The rust will find the sword Of fame,
The dust will hide the crown;
Ave, none shall nail 40 high his name
Time will not tear it down.
The happiest heart that ever beat
Was in some quiet breast
That found the common daylight sweet
And left to Heaven the rest.

Great Missionary Scenes.
1t was a stirring event in India
when. on July 3, 1878, after careful
examination, 2,222 Telugu believers
were baptized in a single day. And
this was in a mission that had been
so discouraging-the Lone Star" mis-
sion--that the church at home had
often been on the point of abandon
ing it.
A terrible event in Burman mis-
sions was the Imprisonment of Judson
during the war between England and
Burma. He spent seventeen months
in horrible confinement, his heroic
wife mlnistering to him.
The most stirring event in Chinese
missions was the Boxer massacres OF
1899 and 1900, in which 1873 Protest
ant missionaries and their children
were slain and about so Catholic mis-
sionaries. with 5000 native Protest
ants and about 10000 native Cath
clics. The stanchness Of Chinese
Christianity was proved beyond all
possibility of future doubt.
