What is the use of building
roads and making no provision
for maintenance?
What is the argument for
waiting ten years to have good
roads?
Act now.
What excuse has a man for
voting against the 20 cts road tax
when he does not pay any taxes?
Charging for the right of way
to build roads is frowEed down
upon by good citizens.
Investigate and you will invar-
iably find that bad roads are
costing you more than good
roads and yet you are denied
the pleasure of a smooth ride
Find out for yourself what is
the matter with the road affairs
of your county.
Sixteen counties have voted
the 20 cts road tax. They are
as follows: Fulton, Livingston,
McCreary, Letcher. Pike, Mar
tin, Owsley, Wolfe, Estill, Mel
son, Shelby, Franklin, Henry,
Owen, Grant and Carroll.

Rritain's Glorious Part

by Hudson Maxim)
Since God broke chaos into light
And flung the stars upon the night,
And set the wonder of the day
Upon its high, celestial way,
Illuming into life and time
The unconditional sublime.
And vast insentience, touched with plan.
Felt that first throb whose end was
man.
An ali-pervading. frightening sense
Has led on toward Divine intenrs.
In darkest hours of sore travail,
When eviling airs from He'll were spun.
And woke the blood-lure of the Hun,
Who every Savagery combined
To conquer and enslave mankind;
Fair Belgium. greatened in her wrath.
Stood sword and soul athwart the pain;
All France arose in battle-cry-
Still, the unuttered Scourge of God
Rolled on, and slew and over-trod.
Great Britain, queen of every sea
And righteous champion OF, the Tree.
Led by that Tightening sense Divine,
Was quick on every battle-line.
Into the fight her all she hurled
Bled unto death to save the world.
In all of time since entered man
Upon the macrocosmic plan,
In all the heaven-drift and flight
OF stars that cOnstellate the night
And Join the World-reel with our sun.
Old Englands sort is numbered one.
Though we were, slow in getting right.
We were not slow when in the fight;
And though we served q lesser part,
We helped to pierce the tyrants heart,
And in the great summa tion-time,
We too shall walk with the sublime.

Some years ago a Bath boy
climbed a tire and secuted a chicken
crow from the parental nest He
brought it home and it grew up with
the family. becoming as much of a pet
as the kitten and quite as tame. When
it desired to JOIN the family circle it
would tap on the window panes TO be
let in. 1t would pursue members
of the family up and down the street,
flying from top to top Of the shade
trees. Prom the trees it would swoop
down and alight on friendly wrists
and feed from the hand. When 1t
grew into maturity, it never flew
away to join other crows in nearby
woods. But the pet became so much
OF a pest that it was finally disposed
OF and the children of that family
mourn its taking off even to this day.
