William Goodrich Ellis, go year
old, died early Sunday evening at hi
home on Church street after a lon,
illness that dates back to 1896, whel
he went to Rainbow in the Adiron
dack mounta ins for his health. H,
towns business men and was borI
here Feb. 81, 1858, the son o.
Leonard and Natalia Goodrich. Wher
three years old he was adopted by
Rev. William W. Ellis, his uncle,
who saw that he was educated in the
local schools and the Monson academy.
In 1871 Mr.. Ellis went to New York
city to accept a position with Lord
g. Taylor as floor walker, but gave
this up to go into the furniture and
undertaking business here in the block
now owned by John Sena. The
same year, 1874, he was married to
Miss DRILL E. Weeden, who survives
him. In ] S77 Mr.. Ellis entered the
grocery field, continuing in it up to
the time of his death, a total of
thirty eight years. He built up his
grocery to the point where it has the
distinction of being one of the best
in this region, coupled with the fact
that it had the second Oldest merchant
of this place back of it. Mr.. Ellis
was director of the Stafford Savings
Bank. One of his marked charac-
teristics was non participation in
politics. He will linger in the minds
of many because of his wit, which
was time and again tested to the
delight of the host who came in con-
tact with him in business or social
sense The truth that he always
look ed on the humorous side of life
and had no place in his makeup for
the entertainment of worry, no matter
what occurred, was big factor in
his success. His removal creates
regret in a community where he had
established himself as one of its
valued citizens Mr.. Ellis leaves,
besides his wife, one daughter, Mis-.
George J. Gordon of Hazardville, a
son, Richard ". Ellis of this place
who will take over the grocery
business, a sister, Mrs Everett L.
Davis of Springfield. Mass, and two
brothers, George Goodrich of North
boro, Mass, and Dexter Goodrich
Of Worcester, Mass. Funeral services
will be held in the home this after
noon at 2.3O O'Clock. Rev. Walter
P. Buck will officiate. Burial will
be in the Springs cemetery. The

CHILDREN ROAD BUILDERS.

The mere fact that Col, Sidney
Suggs is no longer head "highwa.-
man" in the state. hasn't caused him
20 lose any of his enthusiasm for good
roads. The colonel is now engaged in
organizing the children Of Carter
county as road builders. Already &
club has been started in one school
district and il has undertaken TO build
mile OF highway under state super
vision Meetings have been called in
two other districts which propose to
follow suit and the movement is grad
ually gaining headway.
AS an evangelist OF good roads. Col.
Suggs is probably without a superior
In the country. He breaches his doc
triens with all the fervor OF Billy Sun
day and he never fails to bring EN- to
the mourners' bench. For one thing,
the colonel is tremendously in earnest
about 1t. He firmly believes that good
roads win furnish one of the most i'm
portant factors in the solution of the
problems affecting the economic and
social welfare of rural life and anyone
who takes the trouble TO think ii out
must agree with him.
In beginning his evangelistic work
among the school children Col. Suggs
lis opening up field which promises
to be fruitful, The boys and girls az
ricultural clubs are doins wonderful
work. laying the foundation for in.
creasing the production of the soil.
The coloners chiIdren's clubs will
tackle the next important phase of the
problem, that of rural transportation
Col Suggs and Carter county have
started something which the rest OF
the state con profitably follow up
Why should not the school children ol
Grady county get into the game as
good roads builders? A mile of frs
class highway built by every distric
would mean much progress and il
educational value would be incalcul
able. The Carter county way is 1
mighty good one. Let Grady count,
20 and. do likewise.
