ARE CLAY ROADS HARD ROADsi

A Florida man went to Georgia
last week and was disillusicned. He |
had heard folks down the state brag-
ging about the roads in Georgia and
jumping on Florida commissioners
because we didn't have them, too.
He had heard Georgia people boost
ing their clay roads until he figured
things out that all he had to do was
to take things easy after he left Way
cross.
He was up in North Carolina and
heard Georgia folks up there talk
good roads so much that nothing
would do him but he must take the
trip by auto from Asheville to At
lanta and be able to go back to Flor
ida and tell the home folks what It
felt like to ride over these paragons
He started out in good shape. Oh,
but those North Carolina roads are
fine. They build roads up there.
From Asheville to Hendersonvilie the
roads are simply wonderful. Much of
the distance is regular concrete
boulevard except for a space where
there's fierce detour through two
miles of mud). Yes, stree, he was
going to have something to tell the
folks about roads, all right.
And over the mountains between
Hendersonville and Greenville it was
just fine, except for the sharp curves
where you have to go slow for fear
Of hitting some fellow coming the
, other way land going over the bank
! with him), yes he still thought he
would be able to tell about some
travelling. Most of the roads he'd
been over had been built of concrete,
gravel and gravel-clay and the going
had been so fine that it seemed al.
most as If conditions couldn't i'm.
prove.
But soon after he left Greenvile he
| got into those wonderful clay roads
Say you Floridians who have been
forced to travel over broken shell
roads just thank your lucky stars
they were not clay.
Shell gets so full of holes that you
get cramp in your wrist trying to
guide the car around them-but the
shells don't get slippery and skiddy
and shells don't stick to your wheels
when they are wet.
Well (getting back to clay roads)
the party found the road from Green

Now all this is not knocking Geor'

just a sorter knock on clay. the same
kind of knock that she'll deserves.

DAYLIGHT SAVING
ACT AGAIN VETOED
President Holds Law Is Nee
essary to Stimulate In
dustrial Production.

Washington. -President Wilson Fri
day vetoed the bill repeating the day
light saving law. The president said
he returned the bill without his ap-
proval with "the utmost reluctance"
because he realized "the very consid-
cradle, and, in some respects, very
serious inconvenience to which the
daylight savings law subjects the
farmers of the country"
The presidents message vetoing the
bill follows:
"To the House of Representatives
II return this bill, H. R. 1854, an
act for the repeal of the daylight saw
ing law without my signature, but
do so with the utmost reluctance.
realize the very considerable and in
som respects very serious inconven-
fences to which the daylight saving
law subjects the farmers of the coun-
try. to whom we owe the greatest
consideration and who have distin-
guished themselves during these
recent years of war and want by
patriotic endeavors worthy of all
praise. But l have been obliged to
balance one set Of disadvantages
against another and to venture judg-
ment as to which were the more SER
ious for the country The immediate
and pressing need of the country is
production, increased and increasing
production, in all lines of industry.
The DISCRIMINATION and dislocation
caused by the war have told nowhere
so heavily as at the industrial CEN
ters-in manufacture and in the many
industries to which the country and
the whole world must look to supply
needs which can not be ignored or
postponed. It is to these that the
daylight saving law is of most service
It ministers to economy and to eff
cheney. And the interest of the
farmer is not in all respects separated
from these interests. He needs what
the factories produce along with the
rest of the world. He is profited by
the prosperity with which their sue
cess brings about. His own life and
methods are more easily adjusted,
venture to think, than those of thC
manufacturer and the merchant
"These are considerations which
have led me to withhold my signature
| from this repeal l hope that the,
are considerations which will appes
to the thoughtful Judgment of tn,
house and in the long run to tn,
thoughtful judgment of the farmers o
the country, who have always show
an admirable public spirit"
