For Good Roads
Editor The Times:

Editor Inc lines:
AS the election is nearing for
the people to say whether they
want our pike commissioners to
complete their work by finishing
the grades, roads and making
more grades, | think a few
reasons why we should do so is
in place.
First, over 80 miles of grade
lack the macadam to complete
and make good pixies, and if
neglected we are losing what
they cost US, and they are needed
by the general public and will
meet a long felt want.
End. We need pixies on at least
four PARALLEL roads to connect
Knox, Sewer, Loudon and Monroe
counties with ours, and as ex-
pressed in the order of county
court and there giving the bene-
fit of good roads to the remote
parts of the county. Surely no
one can reasonably object to this.
There are some because pike
does not pass their house will
vent their spleen by voting against
This is a very narrow selfish
view and no man who loves his
country and desires to see her
prosper and her people happy
and content can afford to do this.
Third. 1t has been clearly
demonstrated to the satisfaction
Of every reasonable person that
our pixies already built have been
a boomerang to business in every
line of trade. The merchants
have sold more goods, the farmers
have better roads to haul over
and are encouraged to do better
farming and if they sell their
farms they get at least so per
cent advance on price.
Last but not the least by any
means, if the people have good
roads to churches and schools
they have more incentives to raise
the standards of good citizenship.

II have been told a good many things
Bronson" he declared, walking up to
the edge of the platform and glaring
out over the throng. 81 know that
some of you go home at night, you old
devils from places where you wouldn't
think of taking your wife for all the
world. And you young bucks, l know
about you, too. Some Of you go down
to the haunts Of vice, and If some one
asks you to go to the tabernacle and
hear Bill you answer, Oh no, he is too
ID vulgar You miserable, little,
low down wretches, some Of you are
so low down that you would have to
reach up to touch the bottom, and you
are so crooked you could hide behind
a corkscrew."
These statements evoked roars Of
laughter and applause, but Reginald
could see a number of young men flush
as the speaker made these biting re-
marks, and among them was Roland
Gregory, who had attended the meet
ing for the first time that afternoon.
Il know the fellows who will find
fault with my talk today" continued
Billy Sunday. every fellow that is
not toting square, every fellow who is
lecherous, false, dishonest and mean
will go away from here and cuss me,
but you men who believe in what is
right and who want to see Bronson
cleaned up, you men who are trying to
live the right kind of 4 life, know you
are with me. l don't expect to please
either fools or rascals, and | never
try to.
christianity appeals to strong men,"
he shouted. ut is the weak man who
is the sinner, Sin is too much for him.
The Gospel makes the weak strong"
Many of the older men in the audi
ence could well remember when the
speakers name appeared daily in the
papers as the fastest runner in one of
the champion baseball teams in Amer
lea over twenty years before, and their
interest was intense as the former ball
player referred to his life on the dia-
mond.

gelist.
In moment Reginald Nelson step
ped from the press table to the saw
dust floor and made his way over to
where Mr.. Sunday was standing. AS
Reginald did so he caught sight OF
Thomas Marchmount walking down
the aisle, and the two men approached
the evangelist together, who greeted
them with a fervent THANK God. .
AS the editor and city reporter or
the Courier were recognized round
of applause arose, and others began
to stream towsrd the front. Among
them was Edgar Prince, one or the
largest manufacturers Of Bronson.
The sight of their employer hitting
the sawdust trail" stirred up scores OF
the employees in his factory to follow
his example, and the front Of the tab
ernacle was soon filed with the peni-
tents.
This means a new Bronson" cried
Billy Sunday, as he saw the wave OF
spiritual power sweeping over the
audience, and men yielding to Jesus
Christ in hundreds.

Swat the fly and prevent disease
It's hard to swat so many million s
OF flies when there are so many
breeding places for this enemy of
the human race. One of the
best ways to get rid of the fly is
to pat in a sewer system,
remove so many filthy places
where flies breed, and then it
will be an easy matter to get rid
of the fly. Flies, like hogs, are
attracted to filth. Get rid of the
filth, and the flies will soon dis
sapear.

DO you want the town to have
sewers? Then tell the members
of the city council to include a
provision for this in their call for
additional bonds to construct a
filtration plant for the water
works system.
