Chosen at Closing Session of the Sun
day School Convention--Had
Big Enrolment

The County Sunday School conven-
tion came to a close Tuesday after
noon, the attendance at the sessions
on both days having far exceeded the
expectations of the convention organi-
zers. There were sixty enrolled dele
gates at the convention, besides the
many local workers who attended the
meetings without enrolling. Out of
nineteen churches in the county invit-
ed to send delegates, seventeen were
represented in the convention, record
considered rather remarkable by the
state officers, in view of the fact that
the county had been unorganized.
At the afternoon session yesterday
the business of organization of the
county was completed and the follow
ing county officers were elected: Presi-
dent, the Rev. 7. R. Faville, Kenosha,
Congregational vice president, the
Rev. G. r. Lawrence, Salem, Metho-
dist; recording secretary, Miss Ada

Oil The Highways.

Ii oiling roads were only an expert
ment we should still advocate it, be-
cause it promised to relieve an unbear-
able situation. 1t would be well worth
trying. But it has long since passed
out OF the experimental stage. 1t is a
practical means of securing smooth,
solid, enduring surfaces on almost all
KINDS OF highways. 1t does not, of
course, relieve road commissioners of
other duties. It doesn' It fill up the gull

Fully three hundred Of the Jeffery

affair a success.
The supper was served on the lower

Sections of the enclosure of the up

the county as it is for the city, but we
are convinced thai there are lot of
appealing features in the plan to issue
the road bonds.
The payments on these bonds will
amount to somewhere in the neighbor-
hood of $4,000 a year. One-third of
this amount must be paid by the town
interested and that will leave some
$4,000 to be paid by the county for
whatever the state pays will in the
long run be assessed against the county.
AS the city must pay some sixty-fve
per cent of the county road tax it is
just an easy problem to figure that the
cost to the city will be in the neigh
borhood of ST., 1000 year. But there
will be the comfort that at the end of
the ten years the city is through for a
time at least with paying road tax
for the towns Of Somers and Pleasant
Prairie.
There are a lot of people in the city
who want the roads-probably more
than in the towns and for this reason
1t does not look as if it should be the
part of the city to oppose the proposed
bond issue.
The building of the roads may not
improve property in the city, but it will
open a wider anG better avenue of
trade for the people of the county.

to the durability Of the road and the
comfort Of travel. It saves money, not
only in the cost of keeping the road in
repair but in the cost of repairing
vehicles, and the injury caused by dust.
Likewise, it saves health and promotes
comfort. All this is well known. No
argument is needed. The question is
whether this county will avail itself to
the utmost Of the benefits of good
roads. Now is the time to begin

"Some of the most necessary things

An urgent appeal is made to every
woman to come for such length of tine
as she can give and do something, even
though it be but little, toward the
great work the association is striving to
accomplish.
A number of societies have given or
