SPRING HOUSE CLEANING

"The easiest way to clean house
is to do it all once, turning upside
down everything, having all carpets
taken up at the same time, all the
windows washed in succession, all
the paint scrubbed in one piece Of
work. If the family can be Danish
ed, this plan may be followed, but
when the ordinary business of the
home has to 60 on, such drastic
measures should never be practised.
The house should be cleaned room
at a time, but before going to these
make an attack on the closets, "
says Christine Terhune Herrick in
Woman's Home Companion fol
April.
"Devote one day to the china
closet. Take the china and glass
out, put it on table and scour the
shelves. Have a blow-gun anC
inject insect-powderinto any cracks
or crevices of the shelves as a dis
enlargement to invading insects
Wipe off every piece of tableware
before you put it back and discard
ruthlessly broken and cracked
pieces.
"When you put your china or
the shelves use care in its arrange
ment. Tall pieces should go at thu
back, and so should saucers anc
plates. Be careful not to make thu
piles of plates too tall. Plates O.

eco over the contents of your

I06 in THE SHADE
.tReported for the Recorder)

At the meeting of the Board of
Supervisors, held or Monday, a
Good Roads Fever" took hold of
the members of the Board present
and the by-standers which showed
a temperture of about 100 degrees
in the shade.
This fever is no new thing. 1t
has been smouldering along for a
year or so, but the particular thing
that made it burning fever on
Monday was Mr.. Pettigrew, assist
ant Highway Commission of Va.
Mr.. Pettygrew was asked various
questions about what to do and
how to do it, in order that High
land County might inherit good
roads, and he was there every time,
right there with the goods. In fact,
Major Byrd, about as good as said,
that what Mr.. Pettygrew did not
know about "good roads" was not
worth knowing.
Mr.. Pettygrew's business here
was to assist the Board of Super
visors in determining place where
Highlands proportionate part of
the State aid should be expended.
Highland will get State aid to the
amount of about 81 300 for 1911
provided Highland will put up a
like amount, and let the State "call
the figures" when it goes to build
ing. The first callthe state makes
is for tools to work with, a crusher
and steam roller. The State claims
it can not build good and abiding
roads without this machinery.
Then this machinery is to be oper-
ated and the work done under the
supervision of State man, accord
ing to up-to-date- methods.
1t was pretty we'll decided that,
as nearly every fellow wanted the
mile of good road built right by his
door, the State aid would not be
applied this year on the county
roads at all, but that it would be
applied on the Sand P. road. 1t
was thought by the board that
money put on the pike would direct
Iy or indirectly benefit more people
than if put on any other road. The
pike being our main artery, and
the only rail road, we now have or
may ever have, it was decided
to start in getting a good healthy
throb on it, which would impart
|! life to the future road system of the
county, a start, however modest 1t
may be, is regarded, will have a
vitalizing effect, and from it will
spring good-roads movement
that will give to the county a main
thorough fare to the rail roads east
and west, that will lay in the shade
any little branch rail road that we
may be lucky Tor unlucky) to get
in some day that is to come.
The Board completed the letting
of the S. p. road, resulting as
follows: r. N. IRVINE sections 3
and 4 from Cowpasture to Standing
Rock % miles at S IS per mile.
W. W. Bodkin, section 5, from
Standing Rock on Crab Run to
JOHN Trimble's-7I miles at $33 90
per mile.
Sections 6 and 7, to G. J. Hiner,
from John Trimble's to Little Back
Creek, q miles at $4,000 per mile
Section s to Ed R. Hull, from
Little Back creek to State line, 4
miles, at $500 per mile.

1000 MEN At WORK Not Sisters

That famous Little Giant" the
Pittsburg u Lake Erie Railroad has
commenced grading for the extern
sion of it's line into West Virginia.
The combine among interested rail-
roads to- hold for the future the
great coal fields of Monongalia
county, is at an end. For quar-
ter of a century it held in check the
growth of Morgantown and the up.
Ter Monongahela Valley.
WHAT 1T MEANS
The extension of this road means
the opening of mines and the con-
struction of hundreds of coke ovens
for twenty miles back of this City
along the Lake Erie Railroad as
we'll as along the Dunkard Valley
Railroad which is now building.
The dirt is fying' as one
railroad man puts it and two
miles of additional factory sites will
soon be open to new manufacturers,
new business, new wholesale houses,
etc. Ten thousand new people are
coming with new energy, new ideas
and new cash to match our new OPP
portunities and their coming means
new question of shelter, a new
waite on every building lot in thes
Oity.
LOOK BACK TEN YEARS
And see this City as a village
about to respond to a naturl growth
from natural causes; look at the
last census and see that it led all
the Cities of the State and the
whole South in percentage increase
of wealth and population; also look
at our advertisement in the West
Virginia papers for the year 1901,
just ten years ago and see our adj
vice then and decide whether we
are competent to advise you now.
To the hundreds who invested with
us then this advertisement will be
a welcome guest.
LOOK AHEAD TEN YEARS

have both said "it can't be" but it
"did be" and where are they?
They have all quit knocking and
Joined the boosters. Morgantown
will then be the meal ticket fot an

years for the maintenance of its
university and 1000 to $500 students
will then be in attendance spend
ing here 100000 per month and
lone cow pastures will then be con-
yerted into City property and the
present City suburban building lots
