SPEAKING OF GOOD ROADS.

Keep up that good roads talk
in the News said one of Uncle
Sam r f. d. boys to the writer the
other day; you never hit the nail
more squarely on the head in your
life than when you said this town
is due to lose a biz and very de.
sirable part OF its country trade if
its merchants don't wake up and
give the farmers something in the
shape OF roads to come to town on.
My route takes me tight into the
country you spoke of as being on
the fence SO to speak, as regards
coming to Jasper or going to more
distant points over better roads.
and ] hear very pointed remarks
on the situation almost every day
4 good many of these farmers are
now simply ignoring Jasper and
doing all their trading at Webb
City, Alba, and other points south,
where the good roads run. Let
me tell you there is hardly a de-
cent mile of road leading into Jas
per from the west, and there is one
particular mile of road, running
along the west side of Frank Gu
lick's farm that would return this
town dollars for every cent expend
ed in putting it into shape. This
mile Of road serves as an inlet for
a whole vast territory of trade
northwest of here-when they
come this way, which they have
almost quit doing. If no cheaper
way were at hand it would pay
Jasper to make a solid asphalt
street of this one mile OF road but
that's not necessary. | don't
mean to say this road alone would
remedy the situation, but it's the
point where the work should be-
gin. Get up that good roads
club you were talking about. If
we don't Jasper is sure going to
get hurt. 1t isn't a question of
bettering the towns trade; it's got
to be done or the town will lose"
All this is pretty plain talk.
but it's truth. A little disagree
able truth is sometimes the only
remedy for such a situation as
this.

JASPER'S BANKS

The financial statements of both
Of Jasper's banks appear in this
issue OF the News and the figures
that appear therein are a good
deal le ssdry than might seem at
first sight. You'll find several
things Of interest. perhaps the
greatest being the fact that both
banks have broken all their past
recoris by a very considerable
margin This fact that is more
significant when it is considered
that few banks in these parts are
showing any increase at all, many
of them showing abig decrease. 1t
indicates two things pretty strong
ly. In every case where bank de-
posts show an increase it means
the people as a whole have more
money. Therefore, Jasper and
vicinity is more prosperous right
now than at any time past. Also
it would Indicate that the people
of Jasper and vicinity have some
faith in the stability OF their banks.
They are right, there. There are
no better banks to be found in this
neck OF the woods than Jaspers, S,
