remove the excuse which has been
used for the propagation sof the doc
trine of greater preparedness"
Earlier in the day Mr.. Bryan had
this to say of the national defense
propaganda.
II think the military preparedness
which is being advocated by the Ma
tional Security leage and the Navy
league would provoke war instead of
preventing IT, We cannot have the
preparedness which they are asking
unless we subject ourselves to the
leadership Of the men who believe in
1t and they would not only provoke,
future wars. but they would lead us
into the present war II they could.
ST we were surrounded by nations
greater than ourselves and separated
from them by an imaginary line, 1t
might be worth while to consider what
nations so situated should do. But We
are not"

Splendid Laxative
For Elderly People
Has Been Prescribed by Well Known
Physician for Many Years.

The infrmities of age are especial
ly manifest in a tendency to consti-
patton, and call for treatment that
will afford relief in an easy, natural
manner. The rapid action of cathar-
tic remedies and purgatives that
shock the system should be avoided,
more especially as the relief they
offer is only temporary and Is usual
ly more than offset by disturbance
to the vital organs caused by violent
action.
Nearly thirty years ago DR. w B
Caldwell, Monticello, III, prescribed
a compound of simple laxative herbs
that has since become the standard
household remedy in thousands of
homes. 1t acts easily and gently,
yet with positive effect, without
gripping or other pain or discomfort.

Up To Us Now.

There is a steady, persistent ano
growing movement sweeping over
this country for the improvement Of
roads. You can hardly pick up q
paper from any section of the coun.
try but what you will find the ques,
ton agitated in its columns.
1t is a'good sign, and speaks well
for the future of the country as q
whole.
But what of this community?
What are we going to do toward
improving our own roads?
No one else is going to answer this
question for US. It is clearly up to
our own taxpayers.
If we want good roads we must
make them ourselves. Other peo.
pie in other communities will not
do it for us.
We suggest the formation of a 10.
cal organization that will take ur
this question this winter and thresE
it out to a logical conclusion, and
then let that conclusion produce
results.
There are plenty of. brains in thi;
community to settle this question il
a manner highly satisfactory tc
everyone.
Let's start them to working.

Taxpayers, Get Busy.

A communication signed Tax
payer appears in this issue OF The
Record under the heading What
Say You, Citizens?" It's writer in
vites an expression of public opin-
ion on questions that are OF vital
concern to every taxpayer in Will
liamsburg county and this news
paper would be glad to publish
their views on any question that is
of such paramount importance to
the prosperity Of the county as her
public schools and public roads.
We believe that these two great de-
partments should undergo a change,
of course, for the better, and as it
will require legislative acts to bring
about any change in the school or
road system of the county, now is
tine time for taxpayers in every COM
munity to get their heads together
and formulate some plan of inn
provement which they can submit
to the county delegation before it
meets in regular session early in
January.
Stop all your grumbling about
the miserable condition of the roads
you have to travel over and get
down to thinking out some scheme
whereby they may be improved.
Talk the matter over with your COM
munity neighbors, discuss ways and
means with them and then hold a
general mass meeting of taxpayers
to formulate and put into tangible
shape plans for your delegation to
work out in thesGeneral Assembly.
A general mass meeting of the
county's taxpayers at the county
court house for the discussion Of
such public questions as road and
school improvement, law enforce
ment, etc, might, it seems to US, be
held once year. Then if it were
found that there are defects in the
law governing these questions the
matter could be at once brought to
the attention of the county delega-
tion and an effort made TO remedy
it at the next meeting of the General
Assembly.

What Say You, Citizens?
Editor County Record

Editor County Record
| desire to call to public attention
a few matters in which l believe
our people are interested, and to re-
quest that you invite, If you think it
worth while, a general discussion of
plans or ideas suggestive of reforms
and improvement in certain depart
ments of our county's government.
The General Assembly will. soon
convene, and the legislative delega-
ton will have an opportunity to en-
act into law such measures as would
correct the defects, if there be de-
fects, in our present system. 1t is
hardly fair to expect the delegation
to do all the brain work necessary to
develop and formulate the best prac-
tical and economic plan of govern
ment to produce ideal results in
education, road building and law en-
forcement and the affairs in general
which are of vital Importance to the
progress which Williamsburg county
is making. Besides, the task is too
great for any individual to perform,
unless one could be found possessing
information complete and judg-
ment infall;ble. The safest plan,
therefore, is to have men with ideas
come forward and publish their
views, for good results have always
followed the honest, persistent agi-
tation of any subject.
Take the public roads question,
for instance. Is our county system
of road building an efficient one? Is
the upkeep of the public highways
satisfactory to the demands of trav-
ell? Do practical results tally with
the annual expenditures in this de-
partment? If not, then why not? A
reason would suggest remedy.
Take the conditions existing among
our public schools. Are they as they
should be? Is it right to permit the
children of one school district to be
restricted and limited to a three
months term, while the children of
an adjoining district enjoy the ad-
vantages of nine months term?
Should a condition, the result of
natural physical circumstance. be
allowed 70 enrich the one, unless, at
least to some extent, it be required
to assist the other?
Our poor and paupers is the plan
for their care effective, or is it a
farce?
Could current expenses be cur
tailed?
Is the machinery for law enforce
ment running smoothly and lessen
ing crime, or is it out of repair and
in need of an overhauling?
These are public questions. Others
might be raised, but the principal
idea is this: Has Williamsburg coun-
ty outgrown its present "old" form
of government, or is that form suffi-
cient in its provisions to meet the
demands imposed by the county's
development and progress and the
new conditions? What say you, citi-
zens? TAXPAYER.
