Widespread Report Of Bust
ness Growth Causing
Realty Holders To Take
Notice

The advent of the Government
S%hipyard in Morgan City and the
widespread publicity given to Nor
gan City and Berwick as a result has
created a quickened interest in
local affairs by realty holders. Own
ers Of rent houses and vacant lots
in the sister cities are beginning to
consider making their property take
some active part in the general bust
ness growth Of the community.
Transfers of lots and buildings are
becoming more numerous, but es-
pecially marked is the tendency of
owners of rentable property to anti
cipate the growing demand for bet
ter houses by rebuilding and repair
ing where such changes are needed.
The properties bringing the high
est rental prices in the towns and
holding the most satisfactory class
of renters are those which have the
best accommodations to offer. Rent
houses that can supply city water,
sewerage, well-screened doors and
windows and drained yards are the
ones most in demand. These per-
quisities will ordinarily double the
rental income while their cost of in
stallation will usually represent less
than one-fourth the cost of the pro
perty. Many house owners are now
finding that the additional invest
ment necessary to make their rent
property modern will pay the great
returns of any part of their in

CIVILIZATION"

Civilization" Thomas H. Ince's
million dollar film spectacle which
comes to the Evangeline Theatre on
Friday, Aug. 3rd, is remarkable for
the fact that it presents on the
screen the first filmed record of
how a submarine operates when at
lacking a big steamer.
It was through the instigation of
Mr.. ]. Parker Read, Jr., Mr.. Thos.
H. Ince's personal representative,
that the United States Government
agreed to cooperate in the taking Of
this portion of the "Civilation,"
film. It is customary for the Navy
in its quarterly off Point Iona, San
Diego to use for target practice an
old discarded steamer or freight
vessel. Nj. Read agreed to furnish
the ~battleship seen in Civilization"
for this purpose, and on behalf Of
Mr.. Ince to pay for the expensive
torpedoes and shells used in the
fray. The Government agreed to
furnish two battleships, two tarpe-
do boat destroyers, one cruiser, and
two submarines, the latter being Of
ths H-Boat class.
The battle as fought for the
movies actually lasted ~ minutes:
There were 600 shots fired by Uni
ted States Jacktars and Soldiers, to
say nothing Of. anther 600 shots
fired in the air for the most part by
the hired motion picture soldiers.
OF the 600 real shots fired by the
United States Navy men,-each one
carefully timed and placed,-nine-
tytwo per cent were effective, which
is a record Uncle Sam may well be
proud Of.
The sinkings Of three enemy ships
takes place in full view Of the audi
ence, and one boat is blown 500
feet in the air, while all about the
sea is tortured into q thousand
seething spouts by the bursting
shells.

ASPHALT In UNIVERSAL USE
First Pavement of Any Importance
Was Laid in Washington in 1876
Wearing Qualities.

The use Of asphalt in paving con-
struction has become so universal that
one never thinks Of it as a compare
lively recently developed material. Yet
probably the first sheet Of asphalt
pavement Of any Importance was that
laid in Washington, D. c., on Pennsyl-
vania avenue in 1876 and on Vermont
avenue in 1879. The latter is still in
existence today, and it is an evil
dence of the wearing qualities Of
this type of pavement even when laid,
as it was, without the scientific meth
ods of the present day. .,,-

ROAD SYSTEMS IN NEW YORK
Total Designated Mileage Placed at
! 1898 Miles-Work Hindered by
Scarcity Of Labor.

The total designated mileage Of
state and county highway systems in
New York state at the present time is
1883, Of which 1926 miles had been
completed and accepted on January 1,
while contracts in force at that time
covered 1,1S5 miles. This with the
contracts awarded during the year
1916, leaves q balance of designated
mileage not yet cared for of 4,21O.
Highway construction during the past
two years has been gravely hindered
because of the fact that surplus labor
has been largely absorbed in muniticn
making and other abnormal industrial
activities. In New York state during
1916 it was impossible to secure even
at largely increased cost, more than
quarter of the labor actually required
for highway work.

4 BOY At HOME
FOR EVERY ONE
At THE FRONT
Organization of Fulton County Youth
to Help Put Across" a Movement
of Worldwide Significance.

At an enthusiastic meeting of the
boys, boy leaders and many others in
terested in the work, held at Fayette
last Sunday afternoon, an organiza-
tion was perfected for the county
whereby the youth of our county in
years ranging from IA to 21 and
."grown-ups" as well, are to put on
campaign to raise their share of the
great Y NJ. C. A. fund that is doing
SO much to save our boys who are in
the army camps.
Ex-President Taft has said, "This
fund is second only to the Liberty
Loan, for it will be needed long be-
fore our boys are physically wounded
in battle" Dr. John R. Mott has said,
"It is not optional with US; it is OBJ
ligatory." The Y. M. C. A. hut is the
nearest thing to HOME we can give
our soldiers and prisoners of war.
Red -blooded Aperican boys all over
our state are saying: 81 cannot go to
the trenches, but can do my bit at
home, so that a man may go to the
trenches; I cannot give fortune, but
l can work and give my earnings; |
can do my bit of sacrifice for a SOL
der at the front; will be one of the
$4,000 boys to earn and give $150,000.'
Ohio's share of this fund is for $780,
900 boys to give $150,000 Fulton
countys share is for $50 boys to give
$40 each, or a total of $1,000. The
boys are given until April 1 in which
to earn this money.
Every boy in the county is urged tt
enlist in this great work. The county
is divided into nine divisions CORE
spending to the nine high schools, anc
each division is given its quota as
follows: Delta, 35; Fayette, 50; Ly,
ons, II; Metamora, IA; Swanton, 81
Wauseon, rs; Fulton centralized, 16
Chesterfield, centralized, 10; Archbold
IA.
The campaign will last from Fri
day, November 16, to 7 o'clock p. m
of Friday, November %. Every adul
is urged to get back of this move
ment in his respective community an
help the boys to Ego over" They wi

you have the boys to do the work.
For further details in the matte
inquire of your local school superin
J tendelt, who will have charge of tn
organization of the campaign in hi

Miss Helen Fink was hostess at a
very cleverly planned announcement
party at her home on South Fulton

Eighteen young ladies were invited
to participate in kitchen shower for

had been served, Miss Fink announc-
ing that, inasmuch as her guests had
partaken heartily of the refreshments
they might need medicine to counter
act unpleasant consequences, distrib-
uted capsules which she asked the
young ladies to open before taking
Within each capsule was found small
strip of paper, and on all but one OF
the strips was inscribed simply ques,
