CONCRETE ROAD GREAT HELP
Farmer Enabled to Double Size OF
Load to Market and Reduces
Strain on Horses.

No extensive road Improvement In
any community can be carried on with
out more money than can usually be
raised by direct taxation extending
through short term. II is unjust to
expect the taxpayers Of today to as
sumo the total cost of an Improvement
which Is to last into the next genera
ton. so bonds are usually issued to
finance the building of roads that will
permanently cut down m9intenance ex-
pefise and reduce hauling costs. These
bonds are sold and thus converted In
to money. Interest on the bonds Is
paid and the bonds retired by funds
obtained from current road taxes.
When the bonds have been paid the
community still has its concrete roads
In excellent condition.
No community Gun afford to spend
Its money with less caution than a pri-
vates individual would display. The
community should do likewise. When
you are asked to vote for bond issue
to build concrete roads you are not
raising public money to spend 1t, but to
invest 1t. AS concrete road mileage
In community is increased, the bur
den of road maintenance decreases,
and the saving thus resulting will not
only pay interest on the bonds, but
provide funds to retire them as they
fall due. In this way borrowing Is
made profitable.
Touring possibilities at all seasons
Of the year and every day in the year
go hand-in-hand with the concrete
road. Safety first" Is realized as the
result of the non-skid surface. Con-
crete boulevards through the open

They Walk With God.

Today, why should we seek the liv.
ing among the dead? Our vanished
loved ones are not in the dust Of our
cemeteries; they walk with God In
white. AS shone the angel faces and
the angel robes, so shine their faces
and their whlte-robed forms in light.
We walk alone for while. There are
empty places In horne and church /:
there are empty chairs and empty
arms but there is light still burning
where they were; light in the mourn
ing mothers arns, a strange, sweet
light in the home; something like n
glory In the very air, as though angels
had swept past on cleaning wings, and
left a train of light from earth to
heaven. Oh, seek the living among
the living! Lift up your sad faces to-
ward the light. toward the smiles
which are falling from heaven. and let
this Easter time be full OF faith and
hope and praise! 'Why seek We the
living among the dead?' "Jesus and
his own are alive for evermore."-F

CROSS IN HISTORY
Proof That 1t Was Mystic En-
bIem Long Before the Time
of Christianity.

TN the Latin vulgate the prophet
Ezekiel says In Chapter 9:4-6,
i that those whom the Lord wished
to save from the sword he caused
the man with the inkhorn to mark on
the forehead with the sign "thau"
which is the name of the Hebrew let
ter of the shape of cross. In the
English version this is thus trans
lated, the reading being:
"And the Lord said unto him: Go
through the midst Of the city. through
the midst Of Jerusalem. and set a
mark upon the foreheads of the men
that sigh and cry for all the abomina-
lions that be done in the midst there
Of" af
Prescott tells US that the Spaniard
found the cross an object of worship
in many of the native temples Of
Mexico.
Doctor Brinton in his myths" de-
clares that the Indians regarded the
sign Of the cross as mystic emblem
even before they ever heard Of Chris
tianity.
The hammer of the god Thor was
Of the shape Of cross. fact of which
Longfellow appears to have been ig-
norant. for at the feast of King Olaf,
he has represented the two signs as
made in opposition to each other.
The Rev. Barring Gould has said he
found no difficulty In believing that the
sign Of the cross was an important
emblem In nearly all primeval relig-
ions.
Cicero inveighed often and fiercely
against the use of the cross as an In
strument Of torture and death. He

BEER AND THE WAR.

Save, save, savei These are words
that we face at every turn, says Cora
Stoddard In the Union Signal. Money
for Liberty loans; food for the allies
and the war-tossed peoples; and for
the boys and youths who are to fight
the battle for democracy. Savei
Through all the grave or sometimes
gay aspects Of this many-sided thrift
endeavor there recurs a Earring ele-
ment Questions arise which will not
be sIlenced. What of the money, the
food. the man-power involved In the
production and use of beer?
We know from government statistics
that the amount of foodstuffs used in
making beer was greater in 1917 than
In 1916 or 1915. We knew the worlds
food supply was low yet we allowed the
brewers to use more foodfstuffs last
year than In either Of the two pre-
cedlng years.
A 30 per cent reduction In the grain
used in brewing has been ordered for
1918, but this still leaves an amount
Of food material to go into the brewery
watts, appalling under the circumstan.
ces.
Take the single item Of barley. The
barley used by American breweries last
year, II made into -four or sent into
France for bread, would have been
equal to the normal bread ration of s.
100000 people for year. This we
learn from no less an authority than
"A new book on food written by Yer
non Kellogg and DR.. Alonzo e. Taylor
of the United States food administra-
ton. which gives the bread values for
50.0O0.O00 bushels of barley-bread
enough for our army many times over,
or more than enough for all Belgium
or the smitten people Of the French
war zone.

WORSE THAN WASTED.

The liquor men are wasting food.
Last year the waste amounted to
1000 100000 pounds of foodstuffs.
They are wasting labor. About
100000 men are engaged In the man
ufacture, sale and distribution Of
booze in breweries, saloons and res
taurants. as brewers, bartenders and
waiters-at time when every man
Is needed In some useful occupation
to help win the war.
They are wasting life. Bartenders,
brewery workers and walters in
saloons lose an average of six years
of life on account of their occupa-
lions. If the 100000 men who make
and sell booze lose an average of six
years of life. 1t makes a total of $780,
900 years of life. The average man
works about 80 years-so that the
liquor traffic is using up the equiva-
lent Of 10000 men in each generation.
And this is too great a price for the
nation to pay. i
For these reasons-(1) the waste Of
food, (2) the waste Of labor, 90 the
waste of life-we have a right to de-
mand that the liquor business be abol-
ished.-From Publicity Material Sent

FOE MOST TO BE FEARED.

"The foe that fear most" said Ar
thur Nee, author of Defeat or Vic
tory" at recent meeting In Queens
hall, London, ''is the man who is de-
stroying the food l shall want for lit
tie Marjorie Nee when famine comes"
And an outraged audience cheered to
the echo Mr.. Mee's indictment Of "a
trade which from the first day Of the
war till now, has never strained a
nerve to help this land; has hindered
It. hampered it. Kept back ships and
guns. caused the, loss of thousands of
our soldiers lives, and has all the time
been the greatest pro-German force

country make riding pleasurable by do
ing away with the jar, dust in dry
weather and mud in wet weather. A
smooth surface makes steering easy,
reduces tire cost, lessons fuel con-
sumption. These are some of the ways
In which concrete road benefits the
motorist.
Reduced to simple terms, a concrete
road helps the farmer haul two loads
at one trip instead of one load at two
trips; or, 1t doubles the size of the
load and cuts In two the tractive pow
er necessary to transport farm pro-
duce. With less capital tied up in
horses there Is more cash to put into
equipment to produce more cash. The
concrete road reduces the strain on
horses and lengthens their lives. 1t
reduces wear on wagons and harness.
Where motortrucks are used II les
sens tire and fuel expense. II puts the
farmer in state of preparedness to
reach markets quickly when prices are
best, and he can take his profits and
get home with more cash than he could
by slow hauling on a bad road. It
adds to the acreage value of farm
because It increases It's earning posi-
bilities. A concrete road makes all of
these advantages permanent, bringing
its toll of profit to the farmer daily
In the form of time, money and effort

HELD CONVICTION OF TRUTH
Greatest Spiritual Phenomenon In His
tory Seen In Transformation Of the
Savior,s Closest Followers. f

The Christian has more than ian in
timation Of eternity" Instead Of q
yearning, supported though it be by
analogies in nature, he has a positive
assurance that Jesus became "the first-
fruits of them that slept" Uncon-
yincipg as the proofs cited by st. Paul
In Corinthians and Galatians and the
stories Of the Evangelists might be,
standing alone. the. greatest spiritual
phenomenon In history gives the scot
fer pause. We refer to the transforma-
ton In the character and conduct of
the Galilean peasants, after their
dream of new kingdom and their
hope Of power and place were shat
tered by cruclfixion Of their leader as
a criminal. They were huddled to-
gether In an upper chamber, dreading
the same fate. Suddenly they were
turned into the boldest, most unselfish.
most fervent preachers Of a risen
Christ, defying the power Of Rome and
of the priestly crew of Jerusalem.
They testified to the resurrection and
ascension and counted it glorious
privilege to seal their testimony with
their blood. They had neither the pow
err nor the purpose of irnposture. They
welcomed dungeons, scourgings, fire,
sword, caldrons of burning oil and
cruel crosses. crying, with faces chin

RATIFICATION PLAN CONSIST
EMIT WITH AMERICAN DEMoc-


Prohibition in the organic law will
forever destroy the keyst In the
arch of true democracy" is the charge
by the opponents of the federal
amendment. They deplore the fact
that big. populous state like New
York should count for no more than
q small, sparsely settled state like
Nevada in the matter Of ratification Of
the amendment. They go even far
Their and insist that such n method Of
procedure is undemocratic and I'M
American. 1t Is certainly too late
in the history of the nation to mike
such a claim. AS has been logically
said, this method of amending the
Constitution not only Is not opposed
to the American system, 1t is inherent
In that system. If the principle In
volved In this method Is wrong, IL It Is
against public policy, the way to rem
edy 1t is to amend article 8. which
provides this method Of changing
the fundamental law, rather than to
denounce the provisions of the article
as inconsistent with American insti-
tutl0ns.
