One Reason for Unusually Large VOL
ume Of Business in kcokuk at
This Christmas Time Is
Found.
MANY AUTOS COME HERE
Argument for Permanent Roads IL
Found In Unusually Big Amount
OF Business Done in This
City.

One reason for the unusually heavy
Christmas trade in Keokuk stores
this season is found in the fact that
weather and roads permitted large
share Of the surrounding country to
come into Keokuk stores to shop.
The weather was ideal so far as the
roads were concerned, for two weeks
before Christmas. Main street was
filed with machines nearly every day
,of the trading season, and on Satur-
days it was next to Impossible TO
find parking space on any but the
side streets.
That kind of trade should argue for
good roads and for permanent ROADS
in the opinion of good roads enthusi-
asts in the city. They point out the
fact that good roads mean every
thing to city, and that by making
permanent roads into trading CEN
ter like Keokuk. trade is drawn from
every direction.
The advantage of good roads such
as give access to the country north
of Keokulr. and out through tine
county, is shown in the large volume
of business that has come from Fort
Madison, Montrose, Donnellson and
Vincennes. Had the weather been In
clement the last two weeks, or the
roads not in condition there would
have been nothing like the volume
of business from the territory out
side of keokuk.
1t is pointed out that when the Alex
andria road Is completed, which will
have to be done this spring. Keokuk
will have another trade territory
opened up and will have permanent
road, similar to the river drive which
has opened UP big trade territory in
Montrose and Fort Madison sections.
