do something in road building.
The people living on the road lead
ing to Brrdell are going at it in the
right way. They see the value of
good roads. When we get few
miles of good roads, then people
will get more interested. We can't
look through the vista of comingI
wears and calculate the increase inl
power and wealth, peace and Goodl
cheer, that good roads were being
to posterity. Look back just few
wears and see how far Randolph
county was behind in education,
not a respectable school in the coun-
ty. How did we advance so far as
we have? Men of push and public
spirit joined in the great education
al wave and accomplished things.
Now we have advanced about as
far educationally as we can go un-
til we make new avenue-good
roads. With good roads comes
greater population; increase in land
values and a great tendency in con-
Meeting the towns and rural district
this slogan, "Back to the farm"
which we read so much about, can
only be realized when we make
some attractions in the rural dis
tricts. People will make rush back
to the land when we 60 to building
highways through the country. Who
can blame the young man for low
ing the same. Give him good
road that he can drive 10 miles in
an hour on and he will stay on the
farm. From the standpoint of a
town, Pocahontas needs the high
way proposed from here to MAYNARD
The route connects the population
centers, also the route is well set
tied up with farms of which there
are a number of good ones. With
a few good highways leading into
Pocahontas from different parts Of
the county. We could soon have
a town of five thousand people.
Now everyone would be proud of a
town here of this size. If we would
90 to work at it we would soon
have it. There isn't anything that
will bring people into a country
more than internal improvements.
We have all the natural inducements
such as good lands, which grows
anything IN abundance, good cli'
mate aud a splendid citizenship.
All, we have to do is to ipprAS-
o,.I I.,-l.~.-issse'vu 1--WE.
TRrReople of Maynard should be \
very much Interested in this high
way. 1t means more to them if
they want a town and want to hold
their schools. Maynard could be
made great educational center if
there were more inducements. An
ideal place for town, plenty of
clear, running spring water from
most every hill side and surrounded |
by good farm lands. Everyone can
readily see the value of such a
highway. Why not get together
on it. Suppose the citizens of May.
nard get together and decide what
they can do, aud let the business
men of Pocahontas call a meeting
and discuss the proposition and find
out what can be done. A bill has
been introducedin Congress to APP
propriate $40, 100000 annually for
road building, and it is almost sure
to become law, This bill provides
that where the state or local author.
tiles expend on public roads the gov
ernment will furnish one half, so if
were in shape to do anything should
this become a law we could get an
app ,opriation. Anyway, let the
people OF Pocabontas and Maynard
get busy and also people who live
along the route-you should be
interested. A CITIZEN.

Finally she wanted him to pay for

he suggested il to tie young woman
she was highly indignant To satisfy
himself on that point however he
called on the other jcWeer and found
that tie ring had been left there. also
that the value of tho ring was not

A Delightful Bit Of knowledge II II Is
Put into Practice.

Girls who receive a great number
of bouquets during the winter may
preserve the scent of the roses and
violets by means of two ordinary
fruit jars. one for each variety of
bloom. While the flowers still are
fresh cut off their stems. place the
petals and stems in the jar. and pour
over then. an equal quantity of corn
meal.
Instead of packing the jar tightly
leave almost third of the space un-
occupied. so that when the lid has been
screwed on the contents of the re-
ccptaclc may be shaked together.
Then set the jar outside of a window
or in some cool and convenient place ).
as every day it must be gently shaken
and the top removed for just long
enough for a little fresh air to touch
the contents. When the rose and vio-
let leaves are perfectly brown the
cornmeal will! have absorbed their
odor and the entire mixture may DO
transferred to an ornamental pot
pourri jar of the kind used for vari.

The NEW STORM COATS.

That loose, rather rakish-"oklnS
garment. the polo coat. is bidding lair
to become very fashionable indeed this
season. 1t is just jaunty enough to
attract the young girl, just comfort
able enough for her mother TO wear
motoring and shopping, and yet not
too mature for the school girl who
wants something she can slip on in a
hurry and bundle up we'll on cold and
blowy days.
This new garment is cut rather more
full then the tailored top coat and
usually has belt to hold it in across
the back.
Deep pockets, a high collar that may
be buttoned high when it storms deep
turnbacll cuffs and big buttons are
some of its distinguishing charactcr-
istics.
Warm Scotch tWecds, soft woody
camcfs hair cloth. Scotch plaids and
plain cloths are the materials rom
which it is usually made and the col-
orings are both light and dark. The
true polo coat, of course. is the dep
creamy tan, but this is not so mucl in
evidence just now as the darker cUOr-
| ingS and mixtures.
