from the road that you can, for
water is a great enemy of good
roads. Look after your little
bridges and culverts and keep
them in good shape.
Now, just few words to the
road hands. / earnestly ask that
each Of you take a special interest
in the betterment of road condi-
tions in your district, as you know
in union there is strength, and no
chain is stronger than the weakest
link. So, if you should start across
the country, and Get half or three
fourths Of the way and the roads
were impossible the rest of the
way. you would not be any better
off than if you had not started, so
you see we should all work to-
gether, for there is a great deal OF
this responsibility depending on
you. No contractor can build good
roads unless the hands take an ac-
tive part and help him.
Now, as you all know, the spring
of the year is the time to work the
roads, and when your contractor
comes around to warn you to work,
just make your arrangements to
work, for he needs your help. The
contractor is not required by law
to give three days warning; the
law is that if you fail TO work or
pay after being notified, you have
committed a misdemeanor.
But | will ask all contractors to
give us as many days as they can,
SO You can shape your business to
work. If you work all your time
out, but one day or one half day
and you are sued it will cost you
not less than 50. Now, / am hop
ing that all hands and contractors
will cooperate and make one strong
chain across the county without
one missing link.
Yours for better roads,
G.. w. FOSTER,
Road Commissioners.

To Road Contractors and Hands:

To Road Contractors and Hands:
Spring of the year is the time to
grade your roads. If your roads
are we'll graded early they will
pack and give good service all the
year. If they are left until sum-
mer the ground gets dry and hard
and you cannot grade them well,
and they don't pack. They will
wear out in dust and blew away.
Please get busy and grade your
roads this spring. Raise them in
the center so the water will drain
back to your side bitches and not
stand in the road. Some leave the
road SO fiat on top that the water
will stand in the road and cause
great holes and long, deep ruts to
form. Also convey all water away

From Baptist Builder

The following items taken from
the Baptist Builder will be of in
terpst to many Of our readers:
Young Bro. Revel Skinner, the
second son of Pastor J. E. Skin
ner, Of Palm Avenue church,
Tampa, Florida, has surrendered
to the ministry, and is now in train
ING at Columbia College for the
Lords work. If the son is as true
to the cause as the father, the
Lords seal will be on his ministry.
We praise God for the men He is
calling into the ministry to carry
forward the work after the fathers
have gone.
Bro. B. I. Huey moved to his
farm near Bardwell, Ky, last week
to spend the summer and let his
boys have some experience on the
farm. He and his family are
greatly loved BY Martin people
and we shall rejoice to have them
back next fall. Bardwell church
and people are very devoted to
them, and the church there is pros
pering with his leadership.
