GOOD ROADS.

Perhaps no other feature of civic
reform or improvement of recent
years has attracted so much atten-
ton as has that of road building.
All over our broad land, from ocean
to ocean, from the lakes to the gulf,
the wave of enthusiasm is rolling.
The people are realizing that they
must have better roads, and the ma
chinery of government in it's taxing
capacity is being even more and
more strained to meet this demand.
But while there is certain re-
sponsibility resting upon the state in
the maintenance of our highways, we
are in danger of forgetting that an
even greater responsibility rests up
on us, individually, as citizens. The
reason why we sometimes lose sight
Of this responsibility is that we Am
orleans have gotten into the habit of
working out all such matters through
the medium of taxation. If we want
a new road opened, we levy tax. II
we want an old road macadamized, we
tax some more. Is bridge to- be
built? We impose another tax. We
tax and we keep on taxing, and this
regardless Of the fact that we all
know that the hardest money to give
Up is that which is pid in taxes.
Many a man will come to town and
spend in a day enough to pay his
yearly taxes. and think nothing of it.
But he will sweat drops of blood
as it were, when the tax gatherer
rounds him up.
We depend too much upon taxes.
We should depend more upon indi-
vidual and personal effort. A lively
neighborhocd interest in good roads
is worth all of the taxes you can
wiring from unwilling pocketbooks.
A determination by united citizen
ship of a county that their roads
shall excel is worth more than. all
of the road commissioners in exist
ence. Road commissioners through
devious ways to reach their object.
The united sentiment of the people
works direct to the object: It deter
mines what is wanted and then takes
the most direct route to accomplish
its ends.
Do you favor better roads in this
community? Then go to work and
arouse q healthy community senti-

PROGRESS.

We pride ourselves on our inven-
tiveness, but we have nothing to brag
of, suggests James J. Ford in Am
erica The insects are just as good
inventors as we are. In many things
they surpass us.
The spider made the first suspen-
sion bridge. Some spiders make air.
ships. One variety makes a diving
bell The silkworm makes a fabric
that man cannot equal. The bee
lists power The bee preserved his
honey from fermentation by using
formic acid long before man learned
the use of benzoate of soda. The bee
and the wasp used hypodermic
needles uncounted ages ago. We
can't beat the ant for digging sub
ways nor the mason bee for cement
work nor the wasp for waterproof
paper-made of wood pulp, which
we have only learned to use lately
nor the peacock moth for wireless
telegraphy.
In one respect, however, we are
far ahead of any of the insects. We
are still learning. Every day we are
making new discoveries and perfect
ing new inventions. There's no evil
dence that the bee or spider or ant
knows any more today than his an
cestors when our ancestors were liv-
ing in fireless caves, with no tool or
weapon but club.
Any insect that has a tendency to
gloat over the human race should re-
fleet that it isn't so important where
you are as in what direction you're
going.

FORMER HIGH SCHOOL STAR
PLAYS SENSATIONAL GAME

The Duluth Herald of Monday has
the following in regard in regard to
"Fuzz" Johnson, former Bemidji
high school star, who played with
the Grand Rapids eleven at Duluth
Sunday: johnson, halfback for the
visitors, was. applauded all through
the contest, and every handicap was
thoroughly deserved. This boy had
three sweaters torn from his back
and at the conclusion of the game
was about half naked. He was
somewhere in every play and when
carrying the ball fought like demon.
Although the busiest man on the
field he was not injured once and
time never had to be taken out on
his account"
