A Striking Example


What does good road mean to a
rural school? What does a good road
mean to rural community socially?
A certain township in southeast Kan
sas saw fit to construct two miles Of
rock road. from small town south
through a rural school district. Six
children Of school age lived on farms
adjacent to the rock road. six on
the same length Of earth road in the
west part of the school district The
earth road was in poor condition most
Of the time, says the K. s. A. c.. In
dustrialist.
The children on the good road went
to city schools, walking most of the
time. The children on the almost i'm
passable earth road went to a rural
school.
Two Of the children living on the
rock road are now sophomores in agri-
cultural colleges. two are seniors in
high school, and two are freshmen in
high school.
Two children living adjacent to the
earth road finished the rural school.
Now they are hardly average farmers.
-Four became discouraged and quit the
rural school before they were gradu-
ated. They are day laborers in a near
by town.
1t hardly seems possible that a
stretch Of two to four miles Of poor
road would make difference in ones
life, does it? But it did. = Wichita

Borough councils of London have
developed a sudden interest in what
Is called the ''iron" road, and the ma
tional road board is equally alive to
the possible revolutionary Importance
of the innovation. Several lengths
were laid in Fulham some months ago,
and Francis Wood, the borough engi-
neer, declares that the results are
more favorable than anybody concern

America, the West Indies and the
principal countries of continental Eu-
rope are besieging the London authori-
ties for information, while engineers
in the English provinces and in Scot
land and Ireland are showing the live
Hest interest.
II am convinced" said Mr.. Wood,
who is the pioneer in this kind Of con-
struction, that the iron road Is the
road of the future. One Of its best
features is its hygienic effect on the
districts in which it is in use. Full
ham has become decidedly healthier.
Nearly 5000 tons less Of mud and dirt
have been removed from the paved
areas recently than during the CORE

An UnadviSable
Connection
A Story of Heredity Told
In 1850
By Martha V. Monroe
Copyright by American Press Asso-
citation, 1911.
Copyright by American Press Asso-
citation, 1911.

Prior to the beginning Of the pres
ent century we Americans OCCASION
allv saw one of our heiresses married
to a member of the British arlstoc-
racy. Since that time marriages OF
English noblemen have largely been
under two conditions. Those who
have been interested in keeping up
their family traditions have continued
TO come to the American market Tor
wives. Those interested in making
ducks and brakes of their family for
tunes have selected their partners
from those on the stage, principally
of the Londcn music halls The fol-
lowing story illustrates what serious
complications are now resultant from
these unequal marriages:
Miss Mildred Strang. an American,
an orphan and a prospective heiress to
the estate of her maternal GRANDPA
Their, visited London during the social
season. Strang was not her real
name. Her mother had been divorced
from her father and resumed her
maiden name. This resulted in the
daughter being similarly known. The
separation between the parents had
occurred few months before Mildred
was born. and her fathers name was
never mentioned to her. Indeed. when
she went abroad he had so long ago
lost all connection with his wife that
very few persons knew anything
about him or what had become OF
him.
Miss Strang, Notwithstanding that
there was a cloud overhanging her on
her fathers account, was introduced
into the first circles Of London society.
She was so beautiful. so accomplished
and withal so to the manner born that
she soon became favorite. The gam
bling habit which prevailed among wo-
men during the nineteenth century and
which was revived by the Introduction
of a game called bridge" at the be-
ginning of the present century. was In
full blast in England during Miss
Strang's advent There seemed to be
a weak spot in her in this respect, and
it was not long before she was heavily
in debt for money lost at cards. She
was but nineteen years old and on an
allowance from her guardian not sufh-

cient to meet these demands. Further
more, she was not to receive her estate
until she married, and if she did not
in the choice of husband comply with
certain provisions in the will the es-
tate was to be used for charitable pur-
poses.
Miss Strang was busily engaged in
staving off gambling debts when she
met young Herbert Badmanton. whose
title. earl. Of Tweezerdale, was one of
the oldest in England. His father sat
in the house of lords when it was
abolished by the English people. Young
Tweezerdale was as poor as church
mouse. but had such talents for enter
tanning people that he retained his So
cial position. He could sing a comic
song better than any man in London
and gave infinite delight at fashionable
functions by the revival of a dance
popular in the early years of the nine
teenth century called the highland
fling. In the garb of Scotsman he
would give this dance to perfection.
Lord Tweezerdale was by these light
representations with difficulty main
tanning himself in the London drawing
rooms. while Mildred Strang was en-
deavoring to arrange for putting off
her gambling debts until her marriage
or when she should receive her Inherit
ance. They met, and the result was
case of love at first sight.
Tweezerdale's uncle. John Foster,
who had made a large fortune on the
London Stock Exchange, had prom
Used his nephew that if he would be-
have himself and settle down he would
leave him the bulk of his fortune with
which to re-establish the former splen-
dor Of the earls of Tweezerdale. But
thus far the young man had shown no
sign of meeting the requirements. He
Seemed more disposed to pay his way
in society by singing comic song or
dancing highland fling than by main
tanning a steady gait and rehabilitatinp
the family name.
There is nothing so well calculated
to settle young man as love, provid
ed that love is In the right direction
Tweezerdale's love for Mildred Strane
set him to thinking. Supposing he and
she settled down together His uncle
would at once turn over sufficient pror,
erty to match that which would come

MT. J. T. W. Gill

III the nome or ms son, Dr. d. M. F. Gill, at 8 o'clock Monday | morning, occurred the death of Mir. J. T. w. Gill. Funeral ser. vices conducted by Rev's. w. A. Glllon and E. l.. Shettles, were held at 4 o'clock on the after noon of the same day, followed by iDterment in Oak Hill Gene tery. Many were the beautiful floral offerings contributed by kind and loving friends, thus showing the high esteem in which he was held. Mr. Gill had lived in Cameron only about 4 years but during that time he had made many friends who will greatly miss him, especially his old confederate comrades with whom he passed many pleasant hours.
 Mir. Gill was born in York, $. C., July 2, 1881. He was edu- cated at Blairsville Seminary, $. C., and just after finishing school moved to Arkansas locating at Camden.
 On March ?, 1852, he was mar ried to Miss Sarah Steel and they established their home in Prescott, living there until com. ing to Cameron about four years ago. Six children blessed their union, all of whom survive him and two of whom are still living in the old plantation home in Prescott. The married lie of MT. and Mrs. Gill extends four years past the half century mark and during that time God has been very merciful to them, his death being the first to occur in their immediate family.
 During the Civil war Mr. Gill was one of the most gallant of the expousers of the Lost Cause, a cause for which he, like many others, was never conquered He had the distinction of serving under the late Ben Cabel, hold ing the commission of lieutenant in the cavalry, and going from Arkansas. During the last year of the war he was wounded in the battle of Mt. Elba, Ark. and left for dead on the battlefield. His brave wife and two faithful old negroes, hearing of it, by braving many perils, found hilb and carried him to his home. MT. Gill was a member of the Cumberland Pr es b y e r a n church and was faithful and con sistent christian. His wife, who survives him, is an equally zeal Ous member of the Methodist church, but their religious differ ences never disturbed in the least their christian relations.
 Mir. Gill was Mason and for many years was a very active member.
 Besides his wife he is survived by six children, nineteen grand children and four great grand children. Their children are Dr. J. M. F. Gill, our esteemed townsman and physician, Oscar Gill, of Fourke, Ark, Percy Gill, of Denison, Texas, Keener Gill and Mesdames Ella Cobb and Hattie Smith, of Prescott, Ark.
 To these and his devoted dau- ghter-in-law, Mrs. Gill, we ex- tend our heartfelt sympathy Cameron CTexas) Daily Enter prise.
