Iron Mountain All Right!

Ed. Regi8ter-In your paper, which
we have always valued highly,
some one spoke of our town as the
"old deserted village" While
there are many old, tumble down
houses, some of us who live here
know-and have lived a life that
we always knew-we are in the
hands of Almighty God. We are
thankful we live in good old Iron
Mountain, right on top of the
Ozarks. No one of US was in the
terrible Titanic disaster, or in any
of the great floods, where lives are
lost, and have come safely through
the hard winter. No human froze
to death, no one starved to death.
no one even died-for which we
are all thankful.
The owner of5the Iron Mountain
Stock Farm is a pretty good man
for the bible says Therefore, all
things whatsoever that We would
that men should do to you, do We
even so to them" And we believe
If you will treat him halfway
right he will not let any one suffer
in his town for something to eat.
The farmers are hustling now to
get in their corn. While the sea-
son is late, we must do our part;
work and put in the seeds while
the sun shines, keep out weeds
that choke the corn, and trust to
God to do the rest.

An Automobile Ride From st.
Louis to the Valley.

A big American tourist car
rolled into Ironton last Monday
evening carrying a dust covered,
travel stained party of road boost
ers on the last lap of their final in
spection of the st. Louis Arcadia
highway, prior to it's dedication
May 23d.
Those in the party we're John H.
Curran, former State immigration
Commissioner; Jim Poland, pub
Usher of the Arcadian and former
official pathfinder for the State
Board of immigration; w. "A.
Welsh, Road Commissioner for
the De Soto district and G. Ware
Waughop of the American Motor
Sales Company. The party stop
ped at the office of the REGISTER
only a few minutes and then pro-
ceeded to the Arcadia Country
Club where its members spent the
night.
Pathfinder Jim and Mr.. Curran
reported a fine run in from Farm
ington, the only bad road being
about one-fourth mile rough
stretch just north of Middlebrook.
The rest of the highway which
runs through st. francois, Madi-
son and Iron counties is reported
to be in excellent condition.
When these same boosters of
good roads made the pathfinder
trip over the same roads in 1910,
they found them almost i'm
passable in many places, but their
big undressing American Tourist
glided over the same roads this
week without so much as a pune
ture.
After spending the night at the
Arcadia Country Club, the party
started on its return trip Tuesday
morning and established a new
speed record for the Arcadian
Highway before completing their
trip. Mr.. Waughop drove the
Tourist over the 45 miles between
De Soto and st. Louis in the rec
ord time of one hour and thirty
two minutes, although a good part
OF the distance was covered after
nightfall.
Mr.. C%urran, in speaking of the
dedication of the highway, said
elaborate preparations were being
made along its entire course for
entertaining the large party of
public men who will make the
trip the latter part of this month.
Mayor Kreisman, of st. Louis,
former Gov. David R. Francis and
State Highway Engineer Curtis
Hill will be in the party.
OAlthough the actual work of
improving the Arcadia highway
was not commenced until last
June, people along its entire
course have joined in the work
with enthusiasm and the improve.
ment ia marvellous. A S13, 900
bridge over the Big River and six
miles of gravel boulevard 40 feet
wide just this side of De Soto are
among the improvements which
will make travel into this part of
Missouri a pleasure.
The completion of the highway
and the organization of the Area
dia Country Club will bring many
automobile parties into the Area
dia Valley this summer for week.

of the United States are awaken
