Onto the Band Wagon.

That Kentucky will soon vote
on a State wide measure was as
sured by the recent primaries.
In fact, the question now seems
to be not will the question be
submitted, but who will get the
credit for the submission. Gov.
ernor Stanley, with his eye on a
seat, IN the U. S. Senate and his
ear attuned to the voice of the
people, is trying to change his
course and head into the dry
camp. This sudden affection of
politicians for the camel is get.
ting to be quite frequent.

Another Big Timber Deal.

One of the biggest timber deals
made in Eastern Kentucky in
many months was closed Monday
when Joe Ledford, of Lombard,
KY, sold to the Brodhead- Garrett
Company, of Clay City, 5000
acres of fine timber in the coun.
ties of Wolfe and Menifee. The
timber includes some of the very
finest in the State. The price
paid for the entire tract is said to
be about $4,000. The purchase
of this fine boundary of timber
insures the operation of the NADIA
mill for five years to come, and
this in turn means more lumber
for the planeing mill here.

Timely Hunting Tips

It.. is lawful to kill squirrels
from July 1st to December 10th,
including both dates. The squir-
rel law heretofore closed on the
10Th of September and opened
again on Nov. 10Th and ran to
lst of Feb. of the following year,
but this was changed by the last
Legislature.
1t is not lawful to kill more
than fifteen doves in any one
day. Some think if they fail to
kill the bag. limit one day, they
can make up the deficiency on
the next day, and others think
that after securing their own bag
limit they can help their friends
to kill their bag limit, but these
are both violations of the law.

County Schools and County Roads

Nothing is more domoralizing
to any community than combin'
alton of ahominable roads and
inadequate educational facilities.
In a country district having poor
roads you, quite likely, will Sind
the only schools to be one or two
room shacks under a single teach
er.
The school population in such
community is usually very
sparse. If the roads are poor,
only children in the immediate
neighborhood can attend the
school. In consequence, the en-.
tire burden of supporting it de-
wolves upon the parents OF these
children and 1t is financial i'm
possibility, in many instances, to
provide modern school equip
ment.
But, no matter how isolated
the community, good roads are
Immediately followed by central
graded schools. Good roads make
possible the use of vehicles to
convey students to the schoo!
from a wide radius of country.
This, in turn, distributes the bur
den of taxation for the upkeep of
the school over a great many
more people. Thus, through a
per capita tax, little, if any, in
excess of what the country com
munity hao been paying for the
upkeep of one and two room
school buildings, educational
facilities are provided with rival
the most modern and complete
institutions found in the cities.
The rapid growth of the com
munity an1 the better ideals of
citizenship inculcated by the
school cause a spirit of progress.
Roads are steadily improved.
More and more central schools
unite the people, and an old,
back ward, ingrowing countryside
is transformed into a thriving
community of thrifty, prosper
Gus, and public spirited citizens.
