WANT SPECIAL Z.
ROAD AID FOR
MOTOR ROUTES
LARGE DELEGATION APPEARS IN
INTEREST OF THE WILLIAMS.
PORT PIKE BEFORE BOARD.
STRONG ARGUMENT IS MADE
Insist That Unless the Road Is Over
hauled and Very Much Improved
No Schedule Could Be Maintain
et.
Tuesdays Daily Herald.)

Insisting that since the federal
government had established motor
mail route from Columbia to Centre
Vile via .Williamsport, making it one
of the important inter-county high
ways, the. road board ought to make
the Williamsport pike the next road
on the list for special aid, large
delegation Of representative citizens
from that section of the county, sup
plemented by a number of citizens
from the ninth district, appeared be-
fore .the county road commission this
morning.
In the delegation from the Williams
port pike were such we'll known citi-
zens as Justice of the Peace Joe T.
Wilkes, Joe Frank Porter, Representa-
tive w. ]. Russell, John Stockard.
Hugh Porter, DR.. Ragsdale and large
number of others. From other Sec
tons were large number of promi
nent citizens who agreed with the
request of the delegation
1t was insisted by the representa-
tives that the county court had al
ready by an overwhelming majority
selected three roads for preferential
aid, not zone of which probably
brought more farm produce to Co
lumbia than the Williamsport pike;
that the Williamsport pike connect
ed at the county line with the Hick-
man county highway and that in or
der to make the star mail route really
serve the convenience of the people
of that section it would be absolute
ly necessary to maintain schedule.
1t would be impossible under existing
conditions, they declare, to maintain
a schedule and it would be very doubt
full if the government would longer
continue the route unless the road
was very much improved
1t was shown how the citizens of
that section had always gone down in
their pockets and contributed liberal
ly to building roads. The delegation
made strong impression on the
members of the board who reserved
decision
The arguments for the delegation
were made by J. l. Finney, editor of

CONF|SCATED LIQUOR
WAS NOT AUCT|ONED
GOVERNMENT NOW HAS Diff
GUILTY IN GETTING 1T MOVED.
TO NASHVILLE.

The 80 gallons of coniiscated liquor
advertised to be sold here Saturday
was not sold, Deputy Internal Revenue
Collector Horace Frierson, ST., having
received instructions to announce that
it had been bought by the government.
This announcement created profound
sadness among a number of local citi-
Zens who had planned to bid on it, re-
CARELESS of the fact that they would
run the risk of being nabbed by state
officers when they started to trans
port it to their homes. The govern
ment is now having some difficulty in
getting the confscated wet goods
away from Columbia. The American
Railway Express Company refused to
accept it for shipment to Nashville
and it was held here for further in
structions. It probably will be car
ried to Nashville in government au-
tomobile.
The other personal property contis-
Gated from John Skillern in Law
renee county when he was arrested on
charge of violating the federal liq-
uor laws was sold for about $50. 1t
consisted of double barrel shot gun,
a single barrel shot gun, a wagon and
team and a few other articles, none
of which was of much value.

The Lawn Mower.

How dear to my heart are the
thoughts of the winter, the winter
that's gone with jump and jerk,
when lawyer and banker and tin
smith and printer got snow in their
ears when they went to their work.
Oh, winters a season of laughter and
loving, of singing the ballad and tell
ing the yarn; but spring is at hand
an ] soon must be showing the rusty
old mower that stands in the barn;
the clanking old mower, the Shrek
ing old mower, the back breaking
mower that stands in the barn. How
sweet is the snow when it's sweeping
and sitting! I'd gloat Ger a snow
bank, I'd greet it with smiles; how
pleasant the snow when it's whirl-
ing and drifting-we don't, have to
NOW it or rake it in piles. The
snow is all gone from the hill and
the valley, it's melted and gone from
the tor and the tran; I'll have to
quit playing baseball in the alley,
and push the old mower that stands
in the barn; the back action mower,
the stem winding mower, the man
killing mower that stands in the
barn.-Walt Mason

Home.

i Cherish the home with infinite
tenderness. You canot love it too
much, nor give it too much time and
thought. Remember life has moth
ing better to offer you; it is the eli
max and crown of Goo gifts
Make every day of life in it ricn and
sweet. 1t will not last long. See to
it that you, plant no seeds of bitter
memory; that there will be neglect
and harshness to haunt you in after
years. Your little ones will die and
go hence with your words and spir-
its planted in their eternal nature.
Sons and daughters will go from you
into the great world, to live as you
have taught them, to be strong or
weak according to the spirit you
have engrafted upon them. How
you will yearn for them whether liv-
ing or dead. How sweet Or how Bit
ter will be the days when they. pratt
tied about you in the home from
which they have gone forever! So
live with them and train them now
that when they are gone you ard
they can look back on the past with
thAnkfulness and not regret.

''The price of peace" of which the

be necessary. Had the war lasted as
long as these leaders anticipated, hun
dreds Of thousands of American youths
and millions more of their allies would
have been called upon to pay the SUI
preme sacrifice.

their lives is in no small measure due
to our governments preparations to
crush the enemy completely. The in
dustry as we'll as the man power of
the nation was called into the govern

was created which the German general
staff saw meant complete humiliation
for their forces if they fought on, SO

army had 100000 rifles and 10000
