For the Good of
the Community

y
DURING the past summer the state de-
- velopment committee of the Louis
vile Board of Trade put on rural de-
velopment campaign. Forty-two meet
ings were held, at which 86,713 persons
heard the gospel Of rural development
preached.
The speakers, all especially. prepared
for the purpose, discussed agriculture,
education, roads, civics and other subjects
closely related to the Improvement of the
state and the uplift of the people.
Kentucky is an average state, with a
rich and cultured Blue Grass Region,
grain and tobacco farms in the west and
north, and rich mineral deposits and large
illiterate population in the eastern noun
tains
Some Of the early tangible results of
the meetings are touched upon in the
October issue of the Board of Trade Jour
nal" says the Louisville Courier-J ournal
"Tolesboro, Lewis county asked for of the
meetings and booked AS result, A. D.
Keith, cashier of the Bank of Tolesboro, tells the
Board of Trade Sd 500 has been subscribed for
graded school and the fund will be increased to
$4,000. The County Board of Education will
match the sum subscribed and Tolesboro will
have modern school. The awakening Mr.
Keith terms it, has resulted in liberal subscription
for improved roads and other matters affecting
public welfare.
1.-The Pantsville Herald says much Of the credit
for the 100000 road bond issue in johnson
county due to the community meetings The
Enterprise, of Snithland, 500 miles from Paints
vile, says that a result of the meetings there is
little doubt that road bond issue will be voted
by Livingston county. DR.. j. H. Hopper of
Springfield, writes that the Fiscal court had voted
not to retain the Home Demonstration Agent but
after the meeting reconsidered the vote and re-
tanned her A public health nurse will be pro-
cured by the Fiscal court of Henry county. At
Stearns plans for modern school had been sub
mitted and discussed, but nothing further had
been done. After community meeting there

school building is in of construction.
Fern Creek, in Jefferson county, where the first
meeting held, caught the vision Of the bene-
fits of consolidated school that will be
an efficient factor in the life Of the community
Sundry counties have asked for agricultural
agents and home demonstration agents, the w ON
ans Welfare department of the Red Cross says
that as result of the lectures of DR.. Brewster
nine community have been applied for
But after all the immediate results not the
big thing, says the Board of Trade Journal.
"Assuredly! The big thing is that the eaven
is working. Far than the 86,713 Ken
tuckians who attended the meetings are inter-
ested as never before in seeing their communities
make the best of their opportunities, and that is
the big thing accomplished"
