Certainly there were few worse

and, worst of all, was deem in sand

task that confronted the COMMITTEES

They cut Own the fairfield Hill
abut four feet and used the dirt taken
from the cut to fill in the creek below
the hill, building a new bridge across
this creek with span nearly 100 feet
less than the old bridge had. When
they built the road itself, half of it
was finished with gravel and half with
pyrites cinders, in order to test the
qualities of the two materials. To-
day the half lille built of pyrites is in

They did it They II right. They
didn't build but one mile but that mile
is, still here and is probably the best
mile Of road in the county.
The first thing the committee did
was to- ask the United States govern.
ment for an expert engineer to super
wise the construction of the road. This
was granted and Charles T. Harrison.
a government engineer, was detail
ed to the work. He spent three months
and was on the job constantly, seeing
that every detail of this mile of road
was perfectly carried out.

The Commercial Club committee So.
lected the mile of road just north of

was hut one public road through 3
Winston County which was known
as the Robinson Road, from the
fact that it had ben opened by
man of that name, who was en-
ployed by the government to
open said road from Columbus to
Jackson in 1924 or 1925 and for
which he received $4,000.
In concluding this brief and some
what controversial paper, apology is
made for the oft-repeated compromise
of historic dignity in treating of mat
ters that are apparently trivial, but
as the historians highest aim should
be accuracy. and history m the main
is but the assembling and presenta-
tion of minor facts which serve to
make up the wohle and to give it the
stamp Of authenticity and permanent
cy, the offense may at least be in part
excusable. AS the preacher excoriates
sin, not the sinner, so the true histo-
rian's efforts should be to combat er,
rors, great and small, while entertain
ing the kindliest feelings for and ap-
probation of the high attainments of
-.
the errorists. Although no one real
ICES more fully the shortcomings and
of this paper than does
the writer, he hopes that at least the
site of Jackson's Military Road has
been located and some accumulated
rubbish removed. May the time not
be far distant when this noted old
highway may be re-opened and re-
habiIitated and serve coming genera
lions as great thoroughfare connect
ing the Lakes and the Gulf.

HIGHWAY IDEA DIDN'T
ORIGINATE IN ALABAMA
SECRETARY OF ASSOCIATION DIS.
PuTEs CLAIM OF BIRMINe.
HAM MEN. M
BY James w. Miner,
Alabama Secretary of the jackson
Military Highway Association.

Military Highway Association.
AT the Jackson Highway convention
in Nashville one of the chief argu
ments used for the Birmingham route
mentioned by nearly all of their speak
ers, was that the idea of the Jackson
Highway originated in Birmingham
and it should not be taken away from
them''
That statement was considered ir.
relevant and was not answered by the
supporters of the Florence route
However, in order that the history of
the movement be correctly written,
we wish to give the following facts,
1 which, of course, were unknown to
many of the Birmingham representa-
tives:
The statement of origin in Birming-
ham was given definitely as May 25,
1911. We have not looked up the date
of the beginning of the movement by
| the Florence Commercial Club, but at
this time l have before me a letter
from Senator J. HI. Bankhead, dated
March 2S, 1910, endorsing the move
and promising his help.
On May A, two weeks before Bir-
minghams beginning and more than
a year after Florence began, the Flor
ence Commercial Club gave g good
roads banquet. At this banquet, with
w. S. Keller, state highway engineer,
and Gov. Emmett ONeal present and
participating, this movement was dis
cussed and given renewed activity.
By July 5, 1911, there had been a
number of congressman and senators
interested in it, and two bills had been
introduced in congress Providing for
the survey and construction of a great
national highway from Niagara Falls
to New Orleans" passing over practi-
cally the same line outlined by the
Jackson Highway Association of today,
crossing the Ohio at Maysville, KY,
the Cumberland at Nashville, the Ten
nessee at Florence and the Tombigbee
at Columbus, Miss, thence to New
Orleans by Jackson's military road.
AS result of the meeting of the
national highway convention in Wash
ington City in January, 1912, the au,
thor Of these bills substituted for them |
a bill providing for general highway |
foundation to promote. the building Of |
the nationa' roads, and attempting to
develop the llan on which this and
other similar roads should be built
This bill was INTRODUCED January Is,
1912.
NWe, however, are not claiming au.
of the route, for it WIS Gen. I
Jackson's direct eye that fixed it.

Alabama Secretary Jackson Military

using it.
Marks Real Beginning.
This road marks the real beginning
of good road building in Forrest corn
| ty. It cost, including tie cut on the
hill and the construction OF the new
bridge. just about s2,25O. The com
mittee's success with this road was
noted by all the copnty's citizens and
the good road movement began to
grow. 1t eliminated in 1918 when
the citizens in beats one and three
voted bond issue of 100000 for the
construction of good roads.
The supervisors appointed M. D.
King, e. L. Robins and ]. X. Denham
as road commissioners in charge Of
this fund. All of the 100000 has now
been expended and the roads have
been accepted by the commissioners.
The net result is about thirty miles, of
splendidly graded and gravelled roads
in the two beats, and the residents in
these beats are so pleased with the re-
suits that the other three beats in the
county probably will take similar
steps within short time.

ty all were built under the direction of

FROST MAPS WOULD SAVE CROPS

Placing troops in exposed and dan
gerous positions during an attack and
planting crops on points of land most
likely to be affected with early killing
frosts are alike foolhardy and wasteful
practices.
Why not make a frost may of the
farm? Now is the best time to do it,
when the first signs of the winter soils
tice begin to appear, according to Eric
R. Miller, forecaster, U. S. Weather
Bureau, University of Wisconsin, Mad
ison.
such surveys are simple thing
to make on some morning after an
especially hard frost has left its
mars upon vegetation" declares Mr..
Miller. with the data obtained from
survey of this kind, or from SER
les of surveys, it is easy to draw a
frost map of the farm for future ref
erence at crop planting time. Crops
with an extra long growing season,
or with an uncertain date of maturity
could then be planted with greater Sc
curity from early frost damage"
Crops injured by the August frost
of this year already serve as indica-
tions in the making of farm frost maps
while farmers whose fields have not
been touched by the killer" still
have chance to learn a lesson in
frost damage in relation to topog

AUGUST
BY JAMES WHITCOMB RILEY.
(Iooser Poet birthday

A day Of torpor in the sullen heat
OF summers passion. In the sluggish stream
The painting cattle lave their lazy feet,
With drOWSy eyes, and dream.
There lives no cloud to hint of Natures grief;
The sun blares ever like evil eye,
And withers flower and leaf.
Upon the cleaning harvest field remote
The thresher lies deserted, like some old
Dismantled galleon that hangs afoat
Upon a sea of gold.
The yearning cry of some bewildered bird
Above empty nest, and truant boys
Along the rivers shady margin heard,
A harmony OF noise
A melody of wrangng voices blent
With liquid laughter, and with ripping call
Of piping lips and thrilling echoes sent
To mimic waterfalls.
And through the hazy veil the atmosphere
Has draped the cleaning face OF Day
The sifted glanceS OF the sun appear
In splnterings OF spray.
The dusty highway, like cloud of dawn,
Trails DER the hillside, and the passerby,
A tired ghost in mighty shrOud, tolls on
His journey to the sky.
And down across the valleys dropping sweep,
Withdrawn to farthest limit of the glade,
The forest stands in silence, dripping deep
It's purple wine of shade.
The gossamer floats up on phantom Wlng
The sailor-vision voyages the skies,
And carries into chaos everything
That freights the weary eyes.
Till, throbbing on and on the pulse OF heat
Increases, reaches, passes fever's height,
And Day sinks into slumber, cool and sweet,
Within the arms of Night.
