business in Kiowa last Thursday. Mr.
Harlow took them over in his auto.
There has been quite a few remarks
made in regard to the roads. The writer
made a trip to Kiowa one day last week
and we noticed that the only places
where the roads were good was where
the same had been worked. This shows
that we cannot have good roads unless
they are kept in shape. We hope that
the county commissioners will keep up
their good work as they cannot expend
any OF the county money to better ad
vantage and where it will benefit more
people than to pay it out to get good
roads, as good roads will be benefit to
everybody

When are you going to commen ce
working for the establishment OF an ad-
ditional high school class. There are
ten pupils in The ninth grade this year
and next year there will be demand
for the tenth grade. Its always a good
plan to discuss these problems, so let's
begin talking it over. Ask the other
folks what they think about it and tell
them what you think about 1t.
There's something on our mind.
Every parent OF every child ought to
visit the school; every taxpayer in the
district ought to visit the school; every
one ought to visit the school.
Fathers, you have as great a duty as
the mothers toward your children. You

need not be stated, they are too numer :
GUS and plain. Ask yourself about it.
