hold from Monte di Valbella to
the Brenta and were moved
down by artillery as fast as they
were sent forward, never gaining

OLLIE JAMES FOR
GOOD ROADS
Senator Ollie NJ. james Shows His
Interest In The Good Road
Question Here.
Feb. II, 1918

Senator Ollie NJ. James shows
his interest in the road question
in the following letter to Rodman
Wiley Commissioners of public
roads. Frankfort.
| am glad to have your letter
Of the 4th., instant asking me to
give you my opinion as to the
Importance of building good
roadways in our state. ] feel
that this is movement that is
worthy of the united support of
the people of Kentucky. 1t is a
vel known fac that any section
OF country develops much more
rapidly if the roads are in good
condition, making it accessible
at oil times of the year and
greatly facilitating buying and
selling operations.
Coed roads are uplifting TO
civil cation. They brng the
mail to the door Of every man
daily, they open up the way to
the church and the schonl house
for all classes.
At a time like this when every
resource OF our great Matt n
should be utilized TO the utter
most. II seems 10 me that II is
highly iml ortant for our high
ways in Kentucky TO be put in
such condition that the products
of our farms, our dairies, our
mines, etc., could te easily trans.
ported to the markets of the
cities and to the railroads TO be
sent out for distribution gen
orally. ! shall be pleased to co
operate with yourself and other
public spirited citizens in Ken
tucky in every way possible to
further the building of good
roads.
With kindest regards. | am.
Very truly your friend,
Ollie NJ. James.

BECkHAN SHOWS
HIS Interest
In The Following Letter To Rodman
Wiley, Commissioner OF
Public Roads.

| am in receipt of your letter
of February 4th.. asking me to
make some expression of opinion
as to the need of continuing the
work of building good roads in
our State.
| feel that it is hardly neces.
sary for me to say much upon
that subject, because. as is gen.
orally known, | am in favor of
every possible effort being used
to improve the roads that we
have and to build new ones
wherever needed. OF course,
the fit consideration of our peo-
pie in these times is to spend
their best energies toward those
things that will enable US to win
the war, but hope that in doing
so our system of roads in the
State will not be neglected. In
recent years much excellent
work has been done in that dir
ection, and | am hopeful that it
will be continued, and that the
progress made will not be al.
lowed to slacken.
| feel sure that the people of
Kentucky will realize the impor-
tance and necessity of this work.
and will do their best to keep it
up.
Verv sincerely yours,
J. c. W. Beckham.

Simple Menu May Be Arranged and II
10 Easy Way for Woman Without
Maid to Entertain.

An easy way for woman with no
maid to entertain in the evening, is to
give chaflng-dlsh party. Invite six or
eight friends to come In for cards or
music. or after the movies.
Everything must be gotten ready be-
fore the guests arrive, the table set
with the cloth or the doilies. and the
chatting dish with the lamp filed, in Its
place ON one end of the table. Many
women who do much of this sort Of en-
tertaining, have a speciaf chatting dish
set of doilies. 0yster-white linen with
and old blue, cross-stitched hem or
crochet edge, and little figures in the
corners to match would be most effec-
tive. These doilies are not as fine and
dainty as the usual luncheon set, they
should be more .art-and-crafty" One
young hostess has such party set
made out of common kitchen toweling
crOss.harred on red with narrow edge
crOcheted In red cotton.
