1t IS interesting to note that in the
newspaper reports OF the game some
writer's chronicled Alex Moffat as the
kicker of this record goal. In those days
there was not the organized handling OF

exciting moments the spectators would
rush out on the field. Tallyhos were in

it is good enough for the people Of
today Here is where energetic far
mers can set an example. Ia many
of the corn belt States Of the Middle
West farmers regularly drag and work
the roads past their farms without
cost to the county. They appreciate
the fact that good road past the
farm is a dividend payer. This idea
was suggested to a bunch of farmers
in certain South Carolina county
not long ago who answered, in effect,
that they paid their taxes and it was
up to the county to keep the roads in
shape. Of course his is true, but the
county in question is noC doing it, and
neither are the farmers, and who suf-
fers the most?
A very little work on clay road
will keep it in good condition. Any
farmer can make split-log drag and
with the mules or the tractor, or the
automobile, run up and down the road
past his place few times when it be-
gins to dry out after az rain. The
drag will fill up the ruts and smooth
the surface of the road nicely. We
have seen it done thousand of times
and know that it can be done with
very little effort and at very little ex-
pense.
The farmer who follows this practice
for short time will soon have people
talking about him. He will note
travel increasing past his farm He
Will be stamped as progressive busi-
ness farmer and his vicinity will be
looked upon as most desirable than
other sections where the roads go un-
cared for.
In some communities farmers turn
out together and improve the roads in
their neighborhood. 1t would be a fine
thing If the governors In the South
eastern States would set aside two
or three days at different times of the
year to be designated as road improve
ment days, during which the farmers
and townspeople in different sections
could join hands and drag and grade
their roads and repair bridges with
lumber furnished by the, county. No
one would question the oenefit to the
farmer of constructive effort on this
order.

REV. ilCCORD CHAIRMAN J
FOR CLARENDON COUNTY

~ atlanta, Ga, Oct 14-Rev. L. B.
McCord, we'll known minister of Man
ning, South Carolina, has been ap-
pointed chairman of the Third Red
Gross Roll Call, November 2-11, for
clarendon County it was announced
Spy authorities at the southern head
quarters of the American Red Cross
The Third Red Cross Roll Call will!
be a nationwide drive, participated
IN by the men and women of America
without regard to differences of class
or creed, for the sum Of $15,OOO,OOO
YSHd for 100000 members. The SOU
%Y"crn divisions quota for the five
F:ates of Georgia Tennessee, Florida,
North Carolina and South Carolina is
$4,000 and for 100000 members.
while it is the confident belief of
Red Cross leaders that the nation will
respond readily to the plea for $15,-
Uoo,o0o, they are ever more confident
mat every man, woman and child to
whom the appeal is made will not fail,
TO give the dollar thas makes him a
member of the greatest humanitarian
organization the world has ever
known.
The Red Cross, state directors Of the
campaign, comes before the American
people with a proud record of service
TO their soldiers and sailors in the
world war, a record which deserves
the acclaim of every American and
which has received the Endorsement
OF every man in blue or khaki who
saw it in the making. It's war work
nearly over, the Red Cross has come
nome to its own people to ask that
they support it in its plans to do for
america the same thing that it has
done for Americas fighting men and
for the suffering peoples of Europe.
The money that is raised in this
camnaign will be devoted only in
small part to finishing the administra-
ton of the relief supplies which the
United States government has en-
trusted to the Red Cross to distribute
among the stricken populace of the
balkans and other small European ma
tlons. The major portion of it will
be used to carry on the peace-t time
program of the Red Cross. which will
be directed toward making America
cleaner. safer, happier country for
all Americans. Community nursing,
prevention of disease, building ,up of
nublic health and hosc of other bene-
hcent ideas are included in the plans
OF the Red Cross for the future. The
Third Roll Call will make possible
the fulfllment Of those plans and in
sure the successful maintenance of
the great machine that has been built
up during the war for war purposes
and will now be devoted solely to the
activities of peace.

KEEP UP THE
COUNTRY ROADS

Good country roads are an absolute
necessity for the farmer. Good roads
attract travel and Increase farm
values very materially. The finest
kini of farm located on bad road
is severely handicapped; To begin
with. the cost of transportation from
the farm to town is a heavy drain on
the farmer. 1t is also true that few,
II any farms located in wilderness
ever sell for a good price. Isolated
farms are not worth the money that
farms located in we'll settled farm
ing community will bring. A good
country road past the farm is the key
to the situation.
County authorities in the Southeast
sadly neglect their duty in regards to
country road improvements. They
seem to work on theory that if a
trail was good enough for grandfather
