The people Of York county want
good roads and they are willing to do
whatever is necessary to get good
roads OF course they know that good
roads is not Christmas prop
osition. They understand that the only
way to get good roads is to build them
and that the building vill cost money.
The whole problem is squarely up to
the legislative delegation. If that dele
CATION has the brains, and ability to
devise and establish a system that will
give good roads. the people OF the
county will not only say well done, but
they will pay the bill without unrea-
sonable criticism. II the delegation is
unable to devise such q system, then 1t
should take the responsibility Of its
own incapacity and not try to place the
blame on the people.

RENEWAL OF SUBSCRIPTIONS

After an exceedingly strenuous ten
days Of it, the work Of revising The
Enquirer's mailing list for 1919 has
about been completed.
This work has involved the handling
of about two thousand names within
the period mentioned, and under con-
ditions where one man Is doing as
much as is ordinarily required Of two,
that has been quite an undertaking.
The process Of getting name prop
erly on the mailing list involves: l.
The receipt Of the name from the club
maker with authority for renewal. 2.
Entry of the name on the subscription
book with proper postoffice address
and date Of expiration. 8. Putting the
name in type, and placing it in its
proper place in the mailing list.
This operation looks simple enough
and it is simple enough; but 1t requires
time and labor and care. Otherwise
there can be mistakes as the result of
which the subscriber will not get his
paper even after he has duly returned
it to the clubmaker, or perhaps paid
for It. After the name is properly en-
tered in the mailing list the label Is
placed on the paper by means of ma
chine and there is but small chance
that 1t may go wrong.
But that there are errors in the
mailing list from one cause or another
there is no reason to doubt.
It is the desire Of the office to cor
rect all these errors as soon as possible
and to do so, the assistance Of the sub
scribers, clubmakers and others con-
cerned is earnestly requested.
The subscriber who has duly return
ed his name and who is not getting his
paper should 1. Apply to his club
maker, or q. Write us direct.
In order to locate the trouble with
facility we must have: l. The nature
Of the trouble. 2. The name of the
subscriber. 8. The name Of the club
maker who returned the subscription.
4. The postoffice address Of the sub
scriber. With these points Of informa-
ton it is an easy matter to get things
Strengthened out
But all subscribers should remember
this No matter how intimate may be
the acquaintance between the subscrlb-
cr and publisher, in the mailing list
the name Is one of 5000 or more, and
the publisher cannot keep track OF 1t
unless the subscriber provides the in
formation necessary for its location.
The publisher keeps a card index sys-
tenn, but the subscriber can give the
information desired in much less time
than it requires for the publisher to
find the necessary card.
And subscribers and clubmakers In
returning names or transacting any
other business are requested to write
where possible, instead Of using tele-
phone. The telephone is good for
business with the details Of which both
parties are familiar, but it is very un-
reliable in the transmission of names
and addresses.
1t Is never safe to use the telephone
in business Of this nature, unless the
news transmitted over the telephone Is
afterward confirmed in writing.
Subscribers Of course are assured
that the publishers desire absolute ac-
curacy as in matter concerning the
mailing lists ard they are also assured
that the publishers will appreciate any
assistan e Ill the correction Of any and
all errors Of whatever nature.

CAPTURED GERMAN CANNON

If York county does not get a cap
tured German cannon, it will not be
the fault Of Congressman Stevenson.
Mr.. Stevenson thinks that York
county has fully won and deserves
such a trophy and he Is asking con-
gress to make the award.
The necessary bill was introduced
yesterday and Mr.. Stevenson is prepar-
ed to back up the claim with facts that
would seem sufficient to convince any
body.
Not only are people Of Yorkville
heartily in favor of the idea; but rep
resentative men and women from all
over the county would be gratified to
have one Of these captured German
guns in the courthouse yard.

There were somewhat exaggerated
rumors Of the local influenza situation
in circulation yesterday, one story
having 1t that there were twenty-eight
children out Of school from one grade,
with many more from other grades.
Upon being asked about the matter
last night Prof. Rambo said that there
were eleven CHILDREN sick with influen-
"a from the seventh grade and few
more from other grades. The school
board and local board Of health have
had the situation under consideration
for some days; but have not yet seen
proper to close the scho u, and may
not do SO. According to Prof. Rambo,
the consensus Of opinion on the board
Of health is to take no drastic action
unless conditions grow much worse
than they are Low.

RESERVATIONS from the cabinet bt

designations from the cabinet be-
cause of the necessity Of looking after
personal fortunes. suggest one Of two
things, either that the pay is not suf-
ficient for a modest living or the posi-
ton furnishes tempting opportunities
that men of ordinary calibre cannot
withstand. We are not altogether sat
isfied as to which Of these two things
furnishes the strongest consideration,
but somehow in the case Of Mr.. Greg
ory, we suspect that it is little OF
both.

The legislative delegation will confer
a most practical benefit on the farmers
If they will provide system under
which no cotton may be bought or sold
