T. J. BENNETT CALLS
deft over from last week.

LEFT over from last week. n
Commissioner T. J. Bennett was in
town Wednesday and stated that the
commissioners were going down to
see what had best be done with the
Tilden bridge to get it in condition
for travel. In talking about the coun-
ty roads and the way to keep them
in repair, he said that no graded road
Will stay in form unless it is given at
tentlon after the rains and lust while
1t is drying. Much grading had been
done and allowed to run back down
to the flat surface by allowing ruts
to form and the travel to work the
dirt up into mortar until it runs flat.
The present board, he said. is oper-
ating the road drag at but little ex-
pense to preserve the work after the
grading is done and that keeps the
roads in fine condition.
The board did some heavy work
on some of the sand roads in the up
per part of the county, and in the
face of much opposition, but the men
who kicked the most when the work
was being done, are the most emphat-
&c in their praises nov. for when they
went to hauling loads over the roads
hey found that the work done had a
angible value, and saved them some
money every day of the shipping sea-

for them.
While cutting the cords and un-
packing the books he continued, THE
courts are grinding out decisions at
such "a rate and of such importance
that 1t keeps lawyer working to
keep up with them. In the decade
from 1896 to 1906, there was as
many decisions, and it required as
many volumes to report them, as had
been made in the whole life of the
government prior to that, and the
end is not yet. The scope of the work
appears to be constantly widening
The lawyer of today has hard prob
lem before him if he keeps up his IL
brary."

THE MAN

Who does something better than
the ordinary is the man who concen-
trates his time and attention, plus
ability, to the one thing and says or
thinks, This one thing | DO" You
wouldn't go to a lawyer and give him
charge of your case if he was also
trying to practice medicine. You
know he wouldn't be AN expert at
both-that's the reason this is an age
of specialists. Most people who get
particular work done want it done
by specialist in that line. Now
you are aware that the eye is about
as important an organ as the body
contains. When they get out of or
der and you can not see we'll, or
when they cause your head to ache
after reading or sewing, don't make
the mistake that lot of people do
that Of getting glasses fitted at a
store carrying different lines of mer-
chandise and making eyes "side
line" No! Your eyes are too prec-
ious to be experimental on. Go to
specialist and have them attended to

serve those who seek his services,
and it is the steady advertising, COUP
led with careful work, that does it.
The old verse is still true:
If you have a thing to sell
Don't go whisper down a we'll;
He that climbs tree and hollers
is the man that gets the dollars.
And this has been pretty well dem
onstrated in Blackfoot, judging by
the fight that has been put up
against the man who wants to
stand up ON his counter and shout,

that he he carried onto his house.
DIR. Mccall was then summoned and
worked over the divine for some time
before he was restored to conscious

nervous shock. due to his age.
Persons who saw the accident say
II was a miracle that Rev Cecil was
not killed. as he was struck fairly by
the machine. Doctors Call and Hors-
ley could not determine last night the
exact extent of Rev. Cecils injuries
other than that no bones outside of
the collar bone were broken.
May Have Internal Injuries.
He may. however. have sustained
internal injuries. His clothes were
literally torn from his body which
was badly bruised by being dragged
by the machine.
Mr.. Stone expressed regret at the
accident and said he did all in his
power to stop the automobile before
1t struck DIR. Cecil. So hard did he
put on the emergency brakes that the
machine slid for several feet with the
rear wheels locked.
Or. Cecil IL one of the best known
ministers in Richmond and occupteA
high position In the Presbyterian
church. He succeeded the late Rev.
Moses Hoge as pastor of the Second
Presbyterian church and has been
signaiiy honored by the church many
times. His election as moderator of
the Presbyterian Assembly was the
highest honor conferred on any OF
the attending ministers.
