Childish standards of greatness are interesting-p because they are at once so like yet so unlike the standards of grown folk. Many an adult, for instance, has been proud with no more reasonable basis than that which little Johnnie displayed in attempting to top" the boasting of a juvenile eomrade.

Fayetteville.-That the good roads moyemert has taken a firm hold upon the citizens of Washington county is eyidercod by the fact that good roads meeting has been held in some part of the county every week this fall. A careful study of the natural conditions of Washington county roads by experts shows that the cost of building frst-class highways will be reduced to minimum because of the abundant supply of material at hand. All the crushed rock needed can be secured within a few yards of the roadway for most of the roads.

Socialism and Like
Matters Ruled Out
of Mcnamara Case

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 7.-Soclalists con-
flicts between capital and labor, and like
matters were pushed out OF the Nc
Namara murder case by Judge Walter
Bordwell today. insofar as tho court $
position is concerned. Talesman George
w. Morton. rs years old went along with
them, being excused by the court over
the protest OF the defense, who asserted
that Morton's only disqualification was
the reading OF certain copies OF the
Appeal to Reason" a socialist paper
Morton was challenged by Assistant
District Attorney G. Ray Horton on the
ground that he was of faulty mind. -
and being 20 years old he might not be
able TO endure the strain OF a long trail
and had shown garrulity
Attorney Clarence S. Darrow said:
This man is challenged because he
reads the Appeal to Reason. Because
one man is not prejudiced against us
we must get rid of him. The district
attorney thinks he is not strongly enough
biased against the defendant"
The defense today presented what II
holds to be further evidence to show that
Talesman George w. Mckee, by his ex-
pressed opinion, is unfit to sit on the
Jury.
