"IF YOU WANT TO HAVE A GOOD
TIME"

"If you want to have good time
just jine the cavalry" was civil
war cry. If you want n good time,
and are so fortunate as TO get nm
invitation from road engineer Mar
tin, accept at once, and see what will
happen. "The lightning" struck the
writer of these few lines, metaphor
ically speaking on Wednesday and
away he went, Mr.. Martin at the
wheel and we whirled along down
through the Cove via Cedar Bluff,
until we reached the historic and the
bumptuous booming little city of
Richlands, bringing up at the road
headquarters, the convict camp, on
the banks Of the Clinch. We picked
up Capt. French, the Superintendent,
on the way and while at the camp two
things happened. One was the dad
fetchedest rain fall Of the season.
and the other thing, which touched
us more vitality, was splendid din
ner in camp, corn-bred, buttermilk,
butter, onions, and lemon pie, canned
peaches ct cetera, and two men whose
appetites had been whetted to a
feather edge, needed no urging OF
what they thought of this well-cookcd
dinner
Captain French, after completing
the work at Wardell, moved camp to
Richlands and is now closing up gaps
between Cedar Bluff and Richards
and then will move down to Raven.
The gaps" in the highway are
flies in the ointment" About 1-2
miles to the Russell line, several miles
in the Baptist Valley road, mud, ruts
and rocks between Cedar Bluff and
Richlands psoil fine drive. They
will all be closed up after while. It
takes money and time and good
deal ofboth, to build roads. 1t wont
be long until there will be broad
smoother Macadam, wind-burning
road from Lebanon to Roanoke and
beyond.
Crops Looking Fine.
The corn and wheat and oats in
the west end of the county is as fine
in appearance now as ever grew.
Great fields Of grass, thousand cat
tie on the hills, beautiful farm homes,
well, if there is anything anywhere
to beat it these eyes have never be-
held it.
And so, we come back where we
started from: If you want good
time and get an invitation from the
road engineer to seat in his car
headed west, accept it on the spot
and climb in quick, and see what
will happen.

100000 in ARMY
Over Half Million Men Have
Volunteered Since War Was
Declared - Regiments of
Railway Men Ready For
Duty Abroad.

More than half Il million men have
volunteered in the American army
and navy during the period of less
than three months that has elapsed
since war was declared. The army
navy and national guard represented
an aggregate strength of little more
than 100000 men when the war
resolution was adopted. At the
present time between 700,0O0 and
100000 are enrollde in the various
branches of the fighting services and
the great majority of them are
equipped and under training. They
will be joined at the end of the sum-
mer by nearly n million men selected
for the new national army from the
millions registered for war duty on
June 5.
The regular army totalcd little
more than 100000 men three months
ago; it is nearing the 250,000 mark
now, and War Department officials
backed by the press of the country,
are bending every effort to bring it
up to 100000 during the present
week.
The national guard, 10000 strong,
when war was started numbers near
ly 100000 at present, according to
the best estimates available. Of that
number nearly $4,000 actually are
under arms, guarding against Ger
man plotters and doing the job in n
thorough and soldierly way.
The Marine Corps, whose slogan of
"First to Fight" has been respected
by the government in attaching a
seasoned regiment Of sea soldiers to
Major General Pershing's expedition
airy force to France, has becn raised
from 1900 to 10000 mon.
The regular bluejacket force of the
navy, the men behind the big guns
who are already trying their metal
against the enemy in waters of
the Irish coast under Vice-Admiral
Sims, or upon armed American
freighters, has raised from less than
10000 to 10000.
An entirely new force of railway
engineers for duty in France to ham
die railway problems behind the fight
ing lines also has been created. Re-
cruiting figures are not available, but
it is known that some of the rcgi-
ments are now at full strength and
ready to go. Probably 10000 men
have already Joined these regiments.
