That Colonel Buffem Be

ROAD NEEDS REPAIRING
High Water Has Left II in Bad condi-

Retailers May Take the
Lead.

Cooperation with state and county
authorities In the repairing of the
Observation-Disclosures road has
teen suggested as means for getting
this highway into better shape than it
lis al present. The retail merchants
iof Keokuk are being looked to to
take the lead IN this matter. 1t would
seem, and there has been some in
formal discussion among the mer
chants as to their taking up the prop
osition The opinion seems to ha
general that the road Will need some
repairs in oruer to put 1t into really
trst class shape.
There was some talk of having Cot
onel BiIffem. state highway commits
sioner for Missouri. come here and
make trip over the road. and see
what could be done. but this plan evt-
IDENTIFY did not materialize- Since thu
recent high water. the road has not
been left in the very best OF conds-
tion and IT was hoped that aid might
be enlisted from the Missouri board
1t is still possible that Colonel Buff
fem might be able to promise aid or
some OF the counties affected.
! According TO some local people who
made trip to Alexandria Sunday.
there is bad hole in the road some
two miles below Alexandria. There
are bad places in the road between
here and Alexandra. after leaving the
railroad bridge. II is more than prob
aDie that IL anything is done to ge.
the road In better shape, the retail
merchants OF Keokuk will be the opes
to start it. The Industrial association
is Just now occupied with problems OF
its own, and the retailers seem to be
the logical ones to take up the road

WHERE WE SHINE.

If would take columns OF fine print
rsrnnIv RI enumerate the many things
in which Iowa excels. Some of these
are familiar TO very many lowans,
owing 10 the untiring efforts OF the
boosters. and new ones are being DIS
covered every day. 1t was but recent
Nv that a calculation was made, ana
the IMPORTANT and interesting fact
was discovered that taking into con-
sheraton the population. there are
more automobiles owned and IN &C
tuaI use in Iowa than in any other
state in the union.
Consider at this time. the newspa-
pers in the smaller towns OF the state.
There are more really first class small
town papers in Iowa than in any otner
state of the nnion, says the Burning
ton HawE-Eye. There are many news
papers in small towns in Iowa, that
would be considerd credit to much
larger towns in other states. The
small town paper is well edited, as
rule. 1t is neatly gotten up, by real
typographical artists and 1t is printed
by people who realize that paper is
intended TO be read. To be sure,
there are a few exceptions, they
are so rare that they only help to call
attention to the really excellent small
town papers that are to be found
everywhere. As far as that Is con-
cerned. there are few newspapers
in the larger cities of the state that
are not models of typographical
beauty and press work. Papers where
q absolutely no attention is paid to
what is termed style and where the
matter is thrown together without
any regard to classification or import.
ance. Why that Is the case is not
clearly apparent. but against these
may be put newspapers printed In the
larger cities of Iowa, which in every
respect compare favorabiy with the
great papers published In the largest
cities OF the land.
And against these slovenly gotten
up papers in big and small cities,
there are papers printed In small
towns that are gems of typographical
art Each issue speaks in eloquent
language OF the fact that real print
ers are at work, who take just pride
in their work and who are never
satisfied with the best that they can
produce. and will permit nothing but
the best that they can do to leave
their press.
OF course, it could not be other
wise as the small towns of Iowa are
far ahead Of the small towns Of other
states. Perhaps the superior excel
lence Of our small towns may be due
In part to the superior excellence OF
the small town paper In part to the
fact that they are surrounded and
nurtured by the best farming districts
in the world. and again in part be-
cause they have all caught the boost
er or get-togethsr spirit. And that is
what the big papers and the little
papers OF the state have been preach
ing and preaching until they began
to see results. And then they doubled
their efforts.
