Tie following paper, Improvement
Of Roads From the Social Point of
New was read this Afternoon by
Or. J. w. Andrews before the good
roads meeting Or. Andrews is one
Of the pioneer advocates of good
roads in Blue Earth county, and
was talking good roads when the
subject was not as popular as IL
now is He has been a liberal
1r~aler Of his money toward the
rn'lljn" of good roads. His paper
follows:
There has been much discussion
tn his state during the past few
v-ars relative to township schools, or
a Union Of several contiguous school
districts into one large, graded school,
thereby giving the children in the
rural districts the same educational
advantages that the children in the
towns and villages have, and this
without leaving their homes. Your
speaker believes in this, and has
advocated It and will continue to do
so, for he believes that nothing
has been proposed for the social
and intellectual upllft of the rural
communities that is better than this
thing. The first essential TO the
CCnsummatiUn OF a plan of this kind
is the improvement Of the country
roads. Union Of schools as referred
to will be impossible without good
country roads.
The slogan of today Is to bring
the people nearer together for social,
economical and educational purposes.
This is not possible in a community
where bad reads exist; II is only
possible where the roads are good.
Good roads reach to the very .domes-
tic structure of every family. We
always have, do now, and shall in
the future advocate the building of
good highways. Not the national
highways necessarlally, although we
welcome those, and rejoice in the
fact that the national government
has taken so active a part in the
building of highways. but IL is not
so much the great and expensive
highway from state TO state, or
through the the states that the farm
er and rural inhabitant is interested
in. as II is a system OF good roads
in every county.
A system of goods roads in Blue
Earth county that will link neighbor-
hood to neighborhood, and these, to
the towns and villages, will do vastly
more TO encourage and promote
social and educational intercourse
among the rural people, and between
them and those living In the towns.
