In all there were about 30 different
types of motor cars. shown by about

ROAD MEETING TUESDAY
Good Roads Movement Given Impetus
In Big Gathering Here.

The good roads meeting held at
the court house here Tuesday was
attended by a large number of citi-
zeus, all of whom displayed a deep
interest in the purpose of the gath
ering.
S. P. Turner Of Hardy, who has
lately been very active in the in
terest of better roads for Sharp
county, was the principal speaker
on this occasion, while shorter ad-
dresses were made by Atty. T. |.
Herrn, County Judge Horn and
Atty. W. T. Gray.
MIR. Turner gave a thorough ex-
planation of the Alexander law,
under the provisions of which it is
hoped to build a model highway
from Wirth TO Cave City, by way of
Hardy and Evening Shade. Under
this act the territory along this
route would be organized into a
special improvement district, bonds
floated and funds borrowed for the
construction of the road. The most
practical route for the road would
be laid out by engineers from the
State Highway Department, and
the work of building the road would
be in charge of practical road max
ers from this department.
Mr.. Turner showed that the use
of this method is the only means by
which this section can ever hope to
secure good roads, and at the con-
clusion of the meeting the crowd,
by unanimous vote, agreed with
him.
The necessary papers were for
warded this week to the State
Highway Department, requesting
the services of engineers to lay out
the route from Wirth to Cave City,
and from the enthusiasm of the
crowd here Tuesday it seems Ger.
tain that the good roads movement
has received an impetus in this Sec
ton that will result in a substantial
boost for the roads and the country
in general.

LIGHTNING STROKE FATAL
W. R. Davidson Of Love Is instantly
Killed While Shocking Wheat.

Thursday Of last week at Love
lizard county, eight miles northwest
of Evening Shade, lightning struck
and instantly killed W. R. David
son. MIR. Davidson was in the deld
shocking wheat when the fatal
stroke came. Four or five other
men were in the field at the time,
but none of these were injured. as
they were all some distance from
the slain man at the time Of his
death. The bolt struck the unfor-
tunate man on the head, tore the
hat he was wearing to pieces, made
a slight abrasion on the breast,
burned both lower limbs slightly,
tore open the shoes he was wearing
and passed into the ground, making
two small holes in the earth.
MIR. Davidson was a son of Mr..
and Mrs. W. E. Davidson, old and
we'll known residents of Love. He
was about 33 years of age, and a
worthy, upright, capable citizen,
who had host of friends, to all of
whom his sudden death came as a
great shock. His death cast a deep
gloom over the entire community
where he had lived so long and
where all the people, old and young,
were his friends.
The deceased is survived by his
wife and three small sons, the par
ents and two sisters. The stricken
family has the sympathy of a large
circle of friends
