The Crawford Hill.


''Crawdad" the sage of Five
Mile, had the following to say
In the Galena Times the other
day:
For a starter we want all to
know that the Crawford hill Is
sinking from the top to the bot
tom, despite the efforts of one or
two "soreheads." The Crawford
hill is and has been on one of
the most travelled roads in the
country-people from Baxter,
Lowell, Riverton, Neutral, Co
lumbus, Melrose, Galeua, Joplin,
and by gravy we poor devils
must 60 the same road ten mon.
this of the year to get to Miami,
the county scat of Ottawa Co.,
Oklahoma.
THE business men of Baxter
got tired of pulling that nasty
hill and got busy. A. sum of
money was raised and a lot of
work donated, Mr.. Helton was
put in charge of the work and on
or about the 9Th. of December
the dirt began to roll to the bot
tom of the hill. A "kick," yes a
kick, was registered, but Mr..
Helton kept right on pulling that
old hill out of the road for the
comfort of the people who pass
over it. Baxter had a sensible
idea in raising money to destroy
the hill-give the people to the
South and East an easy route
to Baxter, a sort of Trademark.
A good road to any town or city
is a splendid trademark.
NOW, there are some hills to
the South of Galena and if Ga
lena wants to court the trade Of
Five Mile and surrounding coun.
try. she, too, had better try to
get the hills out Of the roads.
People are now counting the cost
of haul. and bear you in mind,
the best roads are the most trav-
eled roads. A thousand hearts
are glad because the Crawford
hill is falling, Hurrahl for Bax-
ter. Can you hear a Hurrah! for
Galena?"
