Net To Be Envied, Decides
The "Victim"

In frontier days an "old scout" when
nightfall arrived, would sleep almost
anywhere and enjoy it.
Frontier days are not what they're
cracked up to be, however, according
to the tale of young high school lad
of this city, who lives on the west side
and who tried the stunt of spending
the evening almost anywhere" a
night or so ago.
This young man had called on his
best girl, who resides north of. the ci-
ty. After bidding her fond farewell
he tried to crank his automobile. The
pesky thing wouldn't work. After what
seemed like hours and hours of labor
he finally gave up and started to ex-
plore the neighborhood for a conven-
lent place to sleep.
Walking through a woods. he came
to country school-house. Ah!-ideal.

WOULD DRAW TRADE
FROM UTICA HERE
Hitch Lies In Fact That
Road Would Injure
Sperry Property

In the matter Of the Improvement
of the Utlca-Mt. Vernon road for
which D. P. Campbell offers to donate
brick for five miles of paving if the
railroad crossings are eliminated,
Mr.. Earlywine, one of the Knox coun-
ty commissioners, was here a few
days ago in consultation with G.. w.
Sperry through whose land the change
would be made, says the Utica Her
aid.
One of the difficulties is that, to
continue along the west side of the
railroad, the highway would occupy
the entire 27 feet of ground that lies
between the veranda of Mr.. Sperry's
dwelling and the right of way, great
ly iniuring the desirability of his
home
The Herald has interviewed Mr.
Sperry and finds that he Is in line to
grant the change if properly compen.
sated. It is suggested that il the
commissioners will build or furnish
money for building another home of
modern style, such as would cost
approximately $4,000, and will release
him from assessments for the road,
he will give the strip necessary to
put the road through his farm. Mr
Sperry would probably have his new
home on the high ground nearer town,
and would retain the present dwelling
as a tenant house.
In order to take care of the Range
Line road, the Weaver road Hugh
Bell, Charles Tulloss and others III
that direction, it would seem desir
able to have the new road follow the
west side of the railroad track to the
gasoline station on F. S. Sperry's
farm, then run west to join the pres
ent road on high ground. This would
avoid damage to farms further north
by taking the road from near their
buildings.
These details can no doubt be

act in good faith, and we hope to see
all yield to sufficient extent in case OF
differences, to make the improvement
a fact and at an early date so that we
can get the good of it.
The Knox county business men are
enthusiastic over the proposition of
Mr.. Campbell, as they realize that it
would bring to their city much of
the trade that otherwise would go to
Newark from Utica and from the
Martinsburg pike territory.
Mr.. Campbelrs donation is equiv
alent to about $4,000, which would
make the assessments on abutting
property small, as the state would
pay half the cost, the county 25 per
cent and the township Is per cent.
