ROAD WORK PROGRESSES

Those sections of road upon which
the State Highway Commission Is hav-
ing work done are progressing slow
ly. The demand for labor is so great
that il is almost impossible TO secure
sufficient men for construction work
70 make any great showing The road
way north of Wilmington is making
better progress than any of the other
sections and il is hoped that 1t will
be completed before winter. The
section between Smyrna and Bowers
will not be completed this year, and
il is likely that the end OF the war
will have TO be awaited until the en-
tire contract is negotiated. On the
dupont Boulevard from Glendale 10
Milford good progress in grading has
been made, bur no concrete is likely
70 be poured until after the close of
the war. In the western part Of the

is slow because OF lack of men.

THE EPIDEMIC has played havoc
with the plans OF some OF the districts
for raising their quota to the Fourth
Liberty Loan With numbers of act
i've workers confined 10 their homes
because OF this desease, il is the duty
of every citizen of each and every dis
trict in the state, TO take upon him
self the task OF soliciting. Every man
and woman knows how much he or
she can subscribe. They should sub
scribe for themselves. and so to their
bank to complete the transaction.
Unless this is done. their district will
surely fall down in securing its quota.
Now is no time for the money Stacker.
The man who has the money and does
not buy bonds at the present time is
a iit subject for the soorn Of his neigh
bors and in the future he will be
pointed TO as the Stacker OF the dis
,rct during the great war. The time
is short but the need is pressing.
10 it today Buy your bonds.

been perfected. the canvassers should
be thoroughly instructed. The third
requirement. that OF securing the
money, comes easy when the people
are approached in the right manner.
