PAY DIRT

In state as we'll populated as Mis-
souri,, the building of good roads is not
an expenditure but an investment.
Every dollar put into a durable road
surface multiplies itself over and over
and produces dividends for the farm
er, for the merchant, the manufac-
turer and the state.
The farmers money returns to him
in time and labor saved, in lessening
of wea: and tear on equipment, in
bringing the narket to his door,
The merchant and manufacturer
reap direct profit by the increase in
the amount of raw product and by the
decrease in expense Of delivery.
AS the taxpayer prospers, so does
the state State revenue is based on
the prosper ~ of the human units of
that state
Money breeds money"-and good
roads prove a most efficient incubator

NO BEER. NO WORK

mo beer, no work." is the slogan
adopted by 100000 union workers in
New York City When the nationwide
prohibition law goes into effect July l
they intend to strike, their officers
say. Hundreds of thousands of union
workers all over the United States,
from Maine to California, are in
dorsing the same slogan.
Much stress is being placed on the
assumption that if such numbers of
laborers do strike the effects will be
disastrous. Union leaders say that
so many men will be thrown out of
employment if prohibition is adopted
that the returned soldiers will have
no chance to obtain employment. That
argument is offset by the fact that
nearly all the large brewers are turn
ing their plants into manufacturing
establishments of other natures.
AS far as the mo beer, no work."
slogan is concerned, it would seem
that our Government is not to be die
tated to by few hundred thousand
workers who think they can demand
things pleasing to their own tastes
regardless of the effects upon millions
of other people. These men need to
be educated rather than humOred.

INCREASING THE LAND

England is reclaiming land on a
large scale.
Using at first German prisoners OF
war, and since the return of demob-
iliZed soldiers and consequent food
ing of the labor market, using men
who would otherwise be unemployed
that nation is doing great construc-
tive work.
For years local boards have been
at the job, but lack of sufficient au-
thority or appropriation has result
ed in negligible accomplishments.
Today central authority created
by war needs is doing what before
seemed Herculean task. 1t is plan
ming the redemption of a million acres
of land from the sea. Inundated land
is being converted into rich farms
through the building of walls, and the
constant erosion is being stopped by
engineering schemes.
In England the national food sit
uation is responsible for this con-
verted action. But the nation has
found it an excellent partial solution
for the soldiers-employment problem,
not only through the work of redemp-
ton alone but in the subsequent
farming necessary.
America has not the problem of re-
claiming land from the sea so much
as that of draining the swamps. There
is plenty of this to do. Hitherto state
and municipal boards have put this
off as disagreeable job, and since
it was not pressing need the swamps
were left swamps.
Now America might study England's S
methods for a solution for her own
problem of unemployment And in
giving work to large number she
would be adding greatly to her food
production.

GERMANS MAY YET BE yICTORS
Unless Russia Is Restored to Family
of Nation Says Ambassador Francis.


of Nation Says Ambassador Francis.
Il am persuaded that if peace is
negotiated with Bolshevist rule con-
tinuing in Russia, Germany in twenty
years or a decade will be stronger
than at the beginning of the war;"
said David R. Francis, United States
Ambassador to Russia. Ambassador
Francis returned to the United States
on the George Washington, and while
on that ship had several conferences
with President Wilson.
Mr.. Francis has been in Russia for
two years and is undoubtedly as ia
miliar with the conditions there as
any man can be. He made several
shevist menace by action on the part
of the Allied and American govern
ments with a view to restoring Rus
sia to the family of nations and there
by removing her from the sphere of
Germany influence. The ambassador
will disclose these plans later when
he appears before a congressional
committee. He will remain in Wash
ington for some time to advise the
State Department and Congress on
the Russian situation.
Mr.. Francis doubts the success of
any attempt at a lasting peace while
the Bolsheviki reign in Russia "a
reign of terror instituted by the Boil
sheviki, with the purpose of main
tanning themselves in power, is pre-
vailing in Central and Northern Rus
sia," he said. "The outrages they have
committed are incredible. / think it
impossible to restore peace to Europe
with chaos prevailing in Russia. In
fact, with Germany practically unin-
jured industrially, am persuaded
that if a peace is negotiated with Boil
shevist rule continuing in Russia, Ger
many in twenty years or decade will
be stronger than she was at the be-
ginning of the war. She is familiar
with the Russian character and for a
generation has been studying it to
influence it If this turns out Ger
many. instead of having been defeated
will have gained a victory"

Round About

In the month following the lifting
of the sugar restrictions we sold less
sugar than in any one of the several
months before" said w. T. Coffman
of the Wabash Market. 81 do not
know the reason for this unless il be
that people knowing that they could
get sugar didn't want it. 1t may be
that while the ban was on they bought
the limit they could and had enough
on hand to last them for a while"
But my sales in potatoes and on
ions are not falling off. Almost the
year around these two staples prove
the two most in demand"
Some people may wonder why let
ters that come to them through the
mail are often sticky with jam or
jelly or greasy with lard or oil. In
postoffice as large as the one in Co.
lumbia there is seldom a day, accord
ing to R. H. Gray, the postmaster here,
that something does not get broken or
spilled. Frequently, he says, a mail
bag will be opened and jar of jam
found to be running over everything.
Not long ago an old woman mailed
some lard in a tin bucket with a slip
lid. Before the lard got sent out of
the office the cover came off the buck
ct. the heat melted the lard and a great
many things were flooded with grease.
When a thing like this occurs the
writing on many letters is so dimmed
that the addresses can not be made
out and they go to dead letter office.
"Carnation Jack" is the accepted
name of a certain travelling man who
comes to Columbia frequently. He is
called this because he always wears
a red carnation in the lapel of his
coat, according to c. C. Bateman, sec
retary of the Columbia Floral Com
pany, who has sold him many of the
flowers.
Mr.. Bateman says that he has OBJ
served, since being in the floral bust
ness, that almost every mans first
choice of flowers is carnation. Wom-
en-, he has noticed, will take sweet
peas or violets, or, if it is not a ques-
tion of cost, they will often prefer
roses. The old lady's favorite flower
is usually the Easter lily, while a
child will pick spring blossom every
time, says Mr.. Bateman.

 I will now let speak for himself and tell
 you something of his musical achieve-
 ments and his ambitions for Birming-

 "In the first place Mir. Carr said in
 his beautiful talking voice which is
 but an indication of the mellifluous
 quality of his vocalizing medium. '1 am southerner-a Virginian. born in [ Richmond where I lived during my childhood until my family removed to other climes. l am often asked if my

 Rutledge came of such stock; her great
 grandfather was one of the signers of the declaration of independence. She inherit ed beauty to a notable degree; a rare gift of song, and an unusual endowment of mind. In any community she would have seemed desirable, but doubly so in the rude environment of her Illinois home.
 The story of Abraham Lncolns love for Ann Rutledge is inextricably bound up with the development of his uniqua
 character. He wooed and won her after
 a long probation. The story revives, in
 the pioneer setting of the time, one oi

 in history. It is a story that has never
 been adequately told before, and which
 shows the first American at his finest

Russia Loses a Coveted Prize

Charlton Bates Strayer, in Leslie's.
 America did not go to war with Turkey and will, therefore, not be able to take part in the carving up of that odious empire. But America is interested in the future of the Sick Man of Europe and moro particularly in the disposition of Ccnstantinople. The agreement of the allied powers at the beginning of the war was to give Constantinople to Rus sia. This would have been Russa's chief reward. It was a prize she had coveted for centuries. Lacking it, Russia was shut out from the sea except on her northern shores during the open sum- mer months. Had the British succeeded in forcing the Dardanelles, thus estab- fishing contact with Russia, the course of Russia and hence the course of the war, would have been entirely different.
