Coon.
Nobody, guess" grinned Peter.
"but II seems to me we will have
TO admit that there Is some good in
him, and that being the case, Is
there any reason why he cannot be-
come a Quaddy IL he wants to-"
For a few minutes no one said a
word, then Danny Meadow Mouse
once more spoke. Il think" said
he, that Sammy has proven that
there is good in him and II he really
wants to be Quaddy we should
let him."
"Ah done think Brer Meadow
Mouse is right" declared Unc' Billy,
and In this opinion all the others
agreed. SO II was decided to invite
Sammy Jay to join the Quaddies.

ROUGH ROADS HURT SCHOOLS
Communities Having Advantage Of I'M
proved Highways Can Afford to
Build Better Buildings.

That good roads materially affect
the county school system has been re-
peatediy demonstrated. In states
where the roads are kept up well the
attendance at school is 30 per cent as
against 81 per cent in states where the
roads are neglected and are In bad
condition. Improved roads make II
possible to consolidate or centralize
the schools and to establish graded
schools in the rural districts Such
schools centrally located will accom-
modate all of the children within ra-
dius OF from four to five miles. In
many communities having the advan-
tage OF good roads, commodious build
lngs have been provided. more com
petent teachers have been employed
and modern facilities for teaching
have been supplied at minimum cost.
There are about two thousand consoli.
dated rural schools In the United
States, and It is significant to note
that the states that have made the
greatest progress in the building and
maintenance OF good roads have the
largest schools. No community can
afford not to have good roads and
where few enterprising citizens will
take the lead the results can be real
lied.
