GOOD ROADS AID EDUCATION
How Future Of Twelve Children Was

What does q, good road mean to a
rural school? What does good road
mean to rural community socially?
A certain township In southeast
Kansas saw fit to construct two miles
of rock road, from small town south
through a rural school district, says
the Kansas Industrialist Six children
of school age lived on farms adjacent
to the rock road, and 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
The children on the good road went,
to city schools, walking most of the
time. The children on the almost inn
passable road went to a rural school.
AT that time the instruction in the
town school was not any better than
the rural school, in the common
branches The city school was not
what 1t ought to have been. The rural
school was noted for it's excellent in
structors
Two of the children living on the
rock road ere now sophomores in agri-
cultural colleges, two are seniors In
high school, and two are freshmen in
high schools. All of them are inter-
ested in agriculture. will graduate from
agricultural courses. and return to the
farm
Two children living adjacent to the
earth road finished the rural school
Their interest in education was bal
anced against the almost impossible
condition of the road the greater part
of the school year. Now they are
hardly average farmers. Forr became
discouraged and quit the rural school
before they were graduated Three
OF them are day laborers in nearby
town. The fourth is owner Of small
restaurant in the same town.
The children of the rock road walked
to church, Sunday school and lee
lures. and attended the social events
In town and in the country adjacent
to the rock road.

stretch of two to four miles of poor
road would make such difference in

looking on the fall of the Roman empire as

According to a statement before a

regarding the money spent for chew

made. The speaker was Miss Mary

ciety to be more liberal in it's contri-
buttons to charitable work, she said:'

DIsFIGURED WITH ECZEMA

"Our little boy Gilbert was troubled
with eczema when but a few weeks
old. His little face was covered with
sores even to back of his ears. The
poor little fellow suffered very much.
The sores began as pimples, his lit
tie face was disfigured very much.
We hardly knew what he looked like.
The face looked like raw meat. We
tied little bags Of cloth over his
hands to prevent him from scratching.
He was very restless at night, his
little face itched.
1--WE consulted two doctors at Chi
cago, where we resided at that time.
After trying all the medicine of the
two doctors without any result, we
read of the Cuticura Remedies, and at
once bought the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. Following the directions
carefully and promptly we saw the re-
suit, and after four weeks the dear
child's face was as fine and clean as
any little babys face. Every one who
saw Gilbert after using the Cuticura
Remedies was surprised. He has a
head of hair which is a pride for any
boy of his age, three years. We can
only recommend the Cuticura Rene
dies to everybody" (Signed) Mrs. H.
