TO HAVE ROCK ROAD

Wednesday the road com missioners of this district com posed of T. A. Jeffries, J. H. Crossett and F. Lewis sold $150,O00 worth of bonds to the Mortgage Trust Co.,, of St. Louis and the proceeds go to- wards the hard surface road which will run from Fakes to the Cross County line.
 About two weeks ago the commissioners of Cotton Plant sold bonds for the purpose of building a road from Cotton Plant to Grays and the road will connect the new road of this district making a direct route from Des Arc via Me- Crory to Memphis.
 The new road will also ,ex- tend two miles north and south of McCrory. This will be one of the best envestments thatMcCrory has ever made from the fact that we depend entirely upon the farming in terests of the surrounding country for our prosperity and when the road is completed, which will be begun very soon it will attract much trade to this city and in a few years McCrory will be the best town in the state.

IN MEMORIUM

Again the Missionary So- ciety of the Methoist church is called upon to mourn the loss of one of it's most faith full and devoted members, grandmother Patterson, as she was lovingly called. She was one of the charter members of the McCrory Auxiliary.
 During the years of her ac- tive life, she was then one of few but faithful who gladly bore her part in establishing the work of the Womans Mis- sionary Society. In later year because of advancing age and enfeebled health her active work was brought to an end, yet through the remaining years her interests were una bated and her love and devo- tion has an abiding inspira- spiration.
 Whereas, it has pleased the Heavenly Rather to call her from her earthly friends to her Heavenly home. Therefore be it resolved:
 First, That while we miss her and mourn her loss we bow in humble submission to the Father who is too wise to err.
 Second: That we extend our heartfelt sympathy to the be- reaved family.
 Third: That we cherish her devoted and consecrated life and express our appreciation of her gentle character.
 Fourth: That copy of the Resolutions be furnished the family, and that a copy be sent to the paper for publication and a copy be placed on the minutes of the Missionary.

per cent for capital invested, to turn over
all the profits to the workers, to be divided
as they deemed best. At first, he said, the
laborers hailed this with JOY. 1t was that
goal of fairness for which they had long
strved But he was amazed TO find that
the officials Of the union, after carefully
considering the proposition, TURNED 1T
DOWN.
He was utterly unable 10 understand why,
until one personal friend in the council OF
the labor leaders told him. "If you run your
factory that way" he said, what would
become Of US? You would have no use
for Union because you would have no
Trouble"
The cotton manufacturers and the pow
der makers naturally don't want any
League of Peace, for they thrive on war.
So do all the military gentlemen, who find
promotion painfully slow when there is no
war on.
But there is a sounder, better attitude.
The best physicians, for instance, are more
interested in Preventing disease than in
curing il. The best railroad men devote
more thought TO Preventing wrecks than
in cleaning up after them. The wisest re-
formers finally saw that TO Prevent alcohol
ism was better than rescuing drunkards.
And premium should be placed upon
those Labor Leaders-and there are some
who, while working to improve conditions,
yet seek TO Prevent violence and strikes,
and not TO gain glory by making contention
and loss.

Man Whose Craft Is in Danger.

Every organization must, Of course have

preachers, priests deacons, trustees or
whatever be their prominency's title.
And every job Holder is for the Status
Quo.
Because. IL you change things, what is to

This has a very direct bearing on Labor
Troubles.
Labor Leaders are no worse than other
leaders have been, since Time began, and
no better. They may be high-minded and
honest AZ a class. but they are human.
And 10 Is unfortunate for the general
public that the jobs Of some of these walk
ing delegates and organizers depend on
trouble.
Disputes are the meat they feed on.

woe. He had proposed TO build a factory
