Possibly some Of yor thought all thii

REAL ROAD BUILDING.

That vast sums Of money have been

that much more win be spent in the

see that road improvement is carried
On according TO methods that have
proved successful. The new Okla
homa road Law opens the way for good
roads. provision being made raising
revenues for that purpose, but it is
up to the people Of the various com

taxation are spent in way that will
produce the largest results.
Simple as it seems, road building is

Mental anguish is the most acute
