of devising good road systems, of careful selection of roads, of formu- lating projects, of developing plans and specifications, of having all mat ters considered on their merits by competent men, seem to me to lie at the root of this business. If, as the result of this act, the people are in duced fully to realize the necessity of placing skillful and experienced men in charge of road building and road maintenance, great advance will have been made and the efforts of those who have labored to secure the legislation will have been reward ed. l assume, as a matter of neces- sity, that this law will require the employment in every state of experts, of real experts.
 q repeat this act will necessitate trained intelligence in the service of the state as we'll as in the service of the federal government. The act re- quires the state to accept it. That, as l understand it, implies the assent of the state to every provision of the act. One of these provisions is that projects, plans, specifications, and contracts shall be submitted and ap- proved; and l have suspicion that plans and specifications will not be approved unless they are submitted by people who know about such things. So the assent of the state in- wolves the calling of trained men into the service of every state which is now without them.
 "The law involves another thing, the pledge of the faith of the state to meet in full the federal appropria- tion for the entire period covered by the act. The state legislature may not be able to appropriate money one year for the whole period covered by the act, but it can pledge the faith of the state to meet the financial pro- visions of the act for the period cov- cred by it. This is as it should be. It would be unfortunate if it were otherwise. It would be wasteful not to make plans at the outset for the full period covered by the act; it would mean piece road building and much dissipation of effort and misdirection of funds. These require ments hold whether the state as such, under the existing law, may engage in road building or not. The provis- ion that where the state may not en- gage in highway improvement the

SCHOOL FAIR, CLUB
 SHOW, CARNIVAL TO BE HELD OCT. 1920 Three Events Are Consolidated and Will be Held as One Big Affair
 At Conway this Fall.

A decision to consolidate the first annual county school fair, the boys and girls club shows and the third annual school and civic street carni- val and hold them all as one event at Conway on Thursday and Friday, October 19 and 20, was reached at a meeting yesterday afternoon, at which State Agent c. w. Watson of the county demonstration forces and Miss Emma Archer, state agent for the canning and poultry clubs were present.
 The school fair had been set for September 15 and 16, and was inau- gurated at the June Teachers Insti- ute. The catalog for this event has already been issued, but there will be no change in the program, except as to dates. The list of prizes in the boys corn, pig, cotton and peanut clubs and the girls poultry and can ming clubs will be published complete within a short time, the prizes having already been secured.
 MT. Watson said some experts from the United States department of agriculture will be detailed to attend the events here and one of the fea- lures will be free moving pictures showing the work of various boys and girls clubs.
 The new dates, it is believed, will be more convenient to everyone and will also afford more time in which to prepare exhibits. Corn would not be fully matured as early as Sep tember 15, MT. Watson said, and it would probably be too hot to bring the pigs to town. It is thought one of the largest crowds ever present in Conway will be in attendance.

CORRESPONDENTS DELAYED.

Due to a delay in the mail from some unknown cause, 10 communica- tions from country correspondents reached the Log Cabin Democrat too late for insertion in the weekly edition of August "A. All of the delayed let ters came through the Greenbrier postoffice and were stamped August 22, but were not received here until the night of August 23, after the weekly edition had gone to press. The Log Cabin Democrat is endeavoring to ascertain the cause of the delay in the mail.

money may be secured if counties raise an amount sufficient to meet the apportionment to the state involves the necessity on tine part of such counties of raising an amount sufii- cient to meet the fuii apporttonment for the state, the existence of high way commission, and compliance with all the other terms of the act. l speak of this because there are evil dences that individual counties think that, if they raise a certain sum of money, they will of necessity get corresponding sum from the federal treasury. That is not my construc- tion of the act and not the one that will likely prevail.
 'The duty will rest upon you gen. tlemen who represent the states of informing the people as to the mean ing of this legislation and as to the procedure under it, because the initia- tive under the law lies with you. We are directed to cooperate with you; with the state through the state high way department. It is your duty, if your state accepts the law, to agree with us on roads to be constructed and to submit projects, plans, and specifications. Therefore, individuals, associations, and counties will or ne- cessity take up such matters directly with you, and we shall hear from them through you for the most part"

DENY REPORT OF
 BOYS CONFESSION

A report in general circulation yes terday to the effect that Herman Ster- mer, nine-year-ol son of Former County Surveyor Frank Stermer, had confessed that he set fire to the Reeves school building, two miles west of Con- way, Sunday morning, was emphatic ally denied by Mrs. Stermer today. Over the telephone Mrs. Stermer said the report was malicious falsehood :; that the boy had not confessed to the crime and that he was not guilty of it. She stated that the fact the boy had happened to pass the school build ing shortly before the fire was discov- cred had caused some unfriendly per sons to say they suspected him, and as the gossip spread it was changed to a report that he had confessed.
 Prof w. N. Warren, principal of the school, also denied the boy had made any such confession, and said he did not believe Herman was guilty. "He is a good pupil and has never been angry with any of the teachers, as was told about him." Prof. Warren state. q have talked with the boy about the affair and I am convinced that he is innocent"
 Being under 12 years of age, the boy could not have been convicted of the crime, even if it were proved he committed it. The law presumes that a child under 12 years is incapable of knowing right from wrong.
