Our church Uuity Baptist) is
progressing nicely under our pres
ert leader and pastor Rev. B.
McCrary. OF Metropolis, who is
undoubtedly the best pastor by
lar that we have ever had. He is
an orthodox Baptist preacher. a
race man and leader indeed and
in truth He has marshalled his
forces in such a way until we are
building one OF the best church
edihces in Southern Illinois. Its
true that our membership is small
and the times in this city are very
close, SO much so, until many of
our people have been forced to 60
elsewhere to seek employment but
with the business tact OF our fear
less leader and his inde minat will
power and influence he has SO
thoroughly convinced US OF his
worth and loyalty to God and the
denomination until we are willing
to follow him to the last ditch
He is a lover OF his race, espec-
tally his women. and the young
people. but he does not mince
words in giving them good and
wholesome advice. but give to
them stubborn facts without any
attempt at oratory but with a
heart so full OF love behind them
until he is loved and respected by
the young people for service he
has and is rendering in this COM
munity. He stands high in the
estimation OF the white people
here and they speak very highly
Of him and his ability to take a
few struggling but faithful mem
bcrs and accomplish that that was
said could not be done in Brook
port
Our church will give a Xmas
dinner and supper Christmas day
but that will not interfere with the
divine service, as we will have
prayer and praise service at four
o o'clock and preaching at eleven
o oclock xmas morning and then

ROADS IN BETTER CONDITION
9P'tt-log Drag of Great Service in
Keeping Thoroughfares in Shape
How II Is Built.

Inc use of the split-log drag is i'm.
portaht IN putting the roads in shape
Ihere are over 100000 miles of earth
roads in the country, and the split-log
drag is OF great service in keeping
them in economical repair. The drag
IS used in many states and in foreign
countries. 1t is used with two. three,
or four horses, aud is easily con-
structcd.
1t is a mistake to construct heavy
drag. A dry red cedar log is the best
material for drag Red elm and wal
nut when thoroughly dried are excel
lent and box elder, soft maple, or even
willow are preferable to oak. hickory
or ash.
The log should be seven or eight
feet long, and from ten to twelve
inches in diameter, and carefully split
down the middle The heaviest and
best slabs should be selected for the
front. AT a point on the front slab
four inches from the end that is to be
at the middle of the road locate the
center of the hole to receive a cross
stake, and % inches from the other
end Of the front slab locate the center
for another cross stake. The hole
for the middle stake will lie on line
connecting and halfway between the
other two.
The back slab should then be placed
in position behind the other. From
the end at the middle of the road
measure 20 inches for the center Of
the cross stake, and six inches from
the other end locate the center of the

discharge the duties of what

economy, but will reflect credit
npon the office and accrue hon.
or upon himself. He has lived
and labored here for several
years and those with whom he
has come in closest contact give
him an unqualified good repu-
tation.
For a number of years he had
an office with the Merchants

special ability and business acu-

He is spoken of in the highest

He is for equal rights for all

way to obtain these cardinal
