& CHARLESTON. April a Governor
Henry D. Hatfield has designated May
20 and al as Good Roads Days for
West Virginia pom which days the

citizens labor llpOn the public roads

to effect a competent organization.
All commercial, social and other or
CARNATIONS Of the state are called
upon to help carry out the undertak-
ing.
a year ago many hundred of. miles
OF roads were improved during the
two days set apart by the governor
as Good Roads Days. It is believed
that the amount OF good to be done
this year will be at least double that
of a year ago. E,
The proclamat by Governor Hat

Whereas. The future OF our state

WHAT BECOMES OF PAYROLL
MONEY?

1t is quite worth while to call our
attention occasionally to the great I'M
portance to any community of the cit
izen who earns his living as an en-
ploye of some business firm or man
ufacturing plant. The Star-MirrOr
is inclined to think that Moscow has
never accurately appreciated the value
to this community of the wage-earn-
ers 1t is high time that merchants
and the community as whole got a
better perspective on this matter and
arrived at a more nearly just estimate
of the commercial worth to this town
of the payroll citizens.
Let us be definite Take the case
of the man who is earning $40 a week
and getting his pay envelope every
Saturday night or the first of every
month. Consider what proportion of
the amount paid to such an employe,
approximately $S5 a month, goes to
the merchants in Moscow. Judging by
the examples we have observed we
a month is paid out to Moscow mer-
chants by the man who takes in $50
What other citizen spends in this
community SO great percentage OF
his total earning power? What other
class of citizens do more to build up
the stores and make it possible for
the merchants here to carry large
stocks of first class dry-goods, groc-
cries and hardware? Take the man
who is living on the income from i'll
vestments; take the man who is prac
ticing a profession: take the man who
has a business of his own. Not one of
them under ordinary circumstances
spends anything like as great per-
centage of his income in Moscow and
for Moscow as does the payroll en-
ploye.
1t is expedient for Moscow to take |
this tip and to remodel-if necessary
its view of the great commercial as
set which these payroll men are to
the town. There is no group of cit
liens which is more entitled to con-
sideration from the town, none more
entitled to a voice in counsels which
determine how the town shall be run,
how its money shall be spent, and
what it's public policies shall be.
The payroll employe should very
shortly come into his own as clearly
recognized valuable possession.

KNOW THY COUNTRY
III---Teleerdph and Telephone

Our transportation facilities are thu
most perfect product of this great com
mercial age and the telegraph and tel
ephone systems Of this nation crown
the industrial achievements Of the
whole world. These twin messengers
of modern civilization, born in the
skies, stand today the most faithful and
efficient public servants that ever
toiled for the human race.
They are of American nativity and
while warm from the mind of the in
ventive genius have, under American
supervision, spun a network Of wires
across the earth and under the seas.
Telegraphy, in it's early youth, mas
tered the known world and the tele-
phone has already conquered the
earth's surface, and now stands at the
seashore ready to leap across the
ocean.
No industry in the history Of the
world has ever made such rapid strides
in development and usefulness, and
none has ever exerted a more powerful
influence upon the civilization Of its
day than the Telegraph and Telephone.
Their achievement demonstrates the
supremacy Of two distinct types of
American genius-invention and organ
ization.
The industry was peculiarly FORUM
ate in having powerful inventive intel
lect at it's source and tremendous
minds to direct its organization and
growth. 1t is the most perfect fruit
of the tree of American industry and
when compared with it's European con-
temporaries, it thrills every patriotic
American with pride.
Ambitious youth can find no more in

spring company than the Fellowship
of the giant intellects that constructed
this marvellous industry and journey
along the pathway Of its development
Illuminated at every mile-post Of its
progress by the lightning-fashes OF
brilliant minds, will be taken at a very
early date.
A brief statistical review of the in
dustry brings out its growth and mag
nitude in most convincing and I'M
forgetable manner.
The telephone service of the United
States is the most popular and efficient
and it's rates are the cheapest of the
telephone systems Of the world.
We are the greatest takers on earth.
We send 60 per cent OF our communi-
cations over the telephone. The world
has about 100000 telephones and of
this number the United States has ap-
proximately $4,000, Europe 1920. 900
and other countries 100000. Accord
ing to the latest world telephone CEN
sus, the total telephone investment is
$1,906, 100000 and Of this amount ST.
095,000,000 was credited to the United
States, $636,OOO,000 in Europe and
$175.000,0OO in other countries. The
annual telephone conversations total
24,6O0, 100000 divided as follows: Unit
ed States $500, 100000; Europe $780,
100000, and other countries 2,20O,0OO,-
900. The total world wire telephone
mileage is 33,262,OOO miles divided as
follows: United States 20,248,OO0, Eu-
rope 10,335,00 and other countries
2,679,00O. About six per cent of
the worlds population and sixty-one
per cent of the telephone wire mile
age Is in the United States.
