FAIR VISITORS BY Frank Wing

A SMART young fellow
"A once wrote q story, and
called It Pigs Is Pigs" His
story was a mighty good one
but I'd like to wiring his neck
for the dirt he did the hog
business. As though it wasn't
possible for One hog to be bet
ter than another. It's too bad.
With most peoples it's, I'll

of wheat cakes, and some lit

it'll be pork chops" or IT'S
spare ribs for mine" Beyond
that they don't care If a hog
has three legs or five. They
Just think Of a hog as a mud
wallowin', greedy, gruntin'
animal, and let 1t go at that.
Now, what's the remedy? I
was talkin' this very question
over with a friend of mine the

Tractor And Grader
Build Roads With
Energy Army

The huge 14-ton caterpillar tractor,
owned by Shelby county, and the big
road grader were demonstrated on the
Mil Branch road south Of Memphis
Monday.
The big mogul with its 12-foot sera-
per scooped up the earth from the
bitches and poured in onto the road
bed, making a road in a short time.
These machines with two men driving
them will build more roads in a day
than 200 men with picks and showels.
The small bridges on this road were
crushed In like egg shells as the mon
ster tractor crossed them and nosed
its way from the creeks and gulleys
to the other side. II crushed them In
and came out in the same manner as
the giant British tanks crossed the Hun
trenches In France.
The small bridges are old and will
DOR wear out and SO no particular
damage was oocasioned by their demo-
lition. A special bridge gang win fol-
low the giant tractor and build stronger
bridges behind Il.

THINGS WORTH HOLDING

Taking IN the thread where l
dropped it in my last, let me say, by
all means, hold on to the happinesses
of every day. There is only one way
to be really happy in life, and that is
by being delivered from evil. We do
not possess real and positive good. The
blind man may say, "happy is the
man who Sees" The invalid is apt
to think that only those who have
health are happy. False happiness
is like counterfeit money. 1t passes
for a time as well as good and serves
some ordinary occasions, but when it
is subjected to the touch we detect it's
lightness and alloy and feel the loss.
The best recipe for this boon and
the surest way to get it is to try and
make others happy. This we must re-
member and the very summit of our
happiness is God; and the way to it is
the Christian religion Till we arrive
at Him we are like vapors, tossed
about at the mercy of inconstant
winds. Happy is the man whose
God is the Lord"
Another thing we must hold on to
is Duty. There is much contained in
this little word. How easily we are
diverted from this. Idle criticisms,
or censures, or even the insipid re-
Elections of silly world are enough
to turn US aside. Your duty, my rea-
