the payrolls the names of state en-

There are two ways to have good
roads One is to build them properly
and then rebuild them every few
years. The other is to baild them
properly and then keep them in re

big sums in matchmaking then look
look at the result and pronounce it
good, and promptly turn to something

we proceed to do the same costly
work all over again. And its much
the same with city paving.

R. L. (Bob) Arant of Valdosta has
