PIVOT POINT IN
THE BLOCKADE.
By the British Of the North Sea
BIZ and Control of All the
~ Channel Waters.

WASHINGTON, Feb 10.-"Sheer-
ness is the pivot point in the English
blockade Of the North sea and control
oBall the channel waters" according
toia war geography sketch just given
out by the National Geographic So
ciety. "This port, situated behind a
powerful shelter OF ratification on the
southern shore Of the Thames estuary,
is the strategic nerve center OF the
great English war fleet, as regards its
campaign in west European waters.
Portsmouth, 1t is true, is the first
naval port and arsenal Of Britain, and
the threads directing war upon the
seas run from this port to every quar-
ter Of the world. However, it Is at
Sheerness, and neighboring Chatham,
that the battleships destroyers, scout
cruisers and torpedo boats have their
base for the patrolling Of channel wat
els, for the closing Of the seas to the
north, and for guarding the troop and
Munitions communications from Dover
and Brighton to Calais and Boulogne.
1.-THE garrison town and seaport are
situated on the Isle Of Sheppey, where
the Midway estuary Joins with the
Thames, fifty-one miles east OF Lon
don, and Joined with the metropolis
by the southeastern and Chatham rail-
way. Thrown around the port are a

constitute the most important part OF

Private automobiles in Berlin have,
ever since March, been so extremely
limited as to be almost nonresident.
A few physicians and others working
in the public service have been allowed
to run their machines solely for bust
ness purposes.
Consequently the sight Of luxurious
lmousines carrying the diplomatic
ladies' to afternoon teas and to Inter

some people, and complaints have
poured in on Police President Won

The latter has dashed all tho hopes
OF the complainers by ruling that at

population.

VIENNA, Feb. 11.-Not-
withstanding all the misery and
unhappiness caused by the war,
the number Of suicides and at

far smaller than usual last

unenviable notoriety among

1926 in 1914, and only SS1

|. c. Hindman Reelected Road
0VerSeer.

The Fiscal Court met last Saturday,
inspected the road work and being
highly pleased, reelected Mr.. L. G.
Hindman as master oyerseer. Mr.
Hindman had rendered his resignation
the day before, but on the consistency
of interested parties in the building
of the road he consented to continue
the work if the people on the road
and the court desired his services and
were willing to make a moderate in
crease in his salary. There was no
mistaKing the fact that abundant ev-
idence existed to warrant the court in
the decision to continue him in
charge. The work done met the
hearty approval of the magistrates
and convinced that Mr.. Hind
man was giving splendid results for
the money being used, stated that
they must retain him and were not
willing to make a change and we say
it was a wise decision.

Road Work Pushed.

Work on the Columbia and Liberty
road is now being pushed and from
present indications the money avail
able will be sufficient to build splen-
did road from Columbia to Purdy.
This distance covers the toughest and
most costly part of the entire road
and offers asplendid outlet and inlet
to the Blue Grass counties, save about
two miles from the Neatsyille bridge
to the top of dug hill. If this dis
lance was graded the upper part of
this county and Columbia would be
brought in closer touch resulting in
good to both sections 1t would also
give an unobStructed outlet from Co.
lumbia to Liberty and that entire
part of the State. There being no
money available for this purpose we
believe that a volunteer force will
meet the requirements at the proper
time. We have suggested such move
to many on this end of the line as well
as to those in the upper part of the
county. Every one says it ought to
be done and that they will help do it.
The people at Pellyton, Neatsville and
vicinity are anxious to get this grade
established and good roadbuilt. They
are ready to join in making the grade
and willing to begin grading the road
as soon as possible being thou
sands of loads of fine gravel as ever
was used on a road convenient for the
work. In view of the Importance OF
this opening, in view of saving the es-
tablished grade now shown by the re-
cent survey, it has been decided TO ask
every enterprising man at both ends
of the line and all along the road to
meet at the top of dug hill on the first
Monday in November for this purpose.
Later on an organization will be made
to do this work to the best advantage.
This town ought to join in this move
ment with vim and enthusiasm. 1t
is not a big or costly undertaking and
if met as it should be two or three
days will open a broad path. The
County Judge will furnish all blast
ing materials needed, the people ought
to do the rest. Magistrates Ellis and
Shepherd are enthusiastic and will dc
all within their power to accomplish
it. Let's open the road to Liberty!

Died at SparkesVllIe.

Last Wednesday morning, at I
O'Clock, Mr.. Elroy Roe, who had been
sick for several months, crossed over
to the other side.
He was forty-two years old and was
a victim of pulmonary trouble. While
he was in delicate health for more
than year, he did not take his bed
until two weeks before his demise.
He was a devoted member of the
methodist Church and was a Jealous
Mason, being a member of Sparkes-
vile Lodge. He left wife and nine
children. May God comfort them in
the time of their great sorrow.
The funeral and burial was at An
tioch Church Thursday morning at
10 O'Clock, the Masonic fraternity
being in charge.
The deceased was born and reared in
the community where he died hence a
large congregation of relatives and
friends attended the last sad rites.
Obituary will appear next week.
