NEW TINE. NEW SPIRIT.

THE New Time is instinct with New Spirit
Old things have passed away.
New things must replace them.
New Ways thoughts. new deeds.
Those who attempt to do things in the new time In
the spirit Of the old time will find themselves Ineffective

That's the New Time spirit in action.
Sacrifice OF self for the general good.
Comradeship Of the high and the low
Meeting problems on a common level.
Disregard of artificial distinctions
Recognition Of essential brotherhood

Each man must realize that when other men prosper
he cannot fail to share in that prosperity The employer

The Berlin immune"
(From ihe New York Trlbune.)


I Berlin 'bler-stuben" are not nurseries
of terrorism
The Ebert government has treated the
( Sparatacides with great tolerance. Ebert
himself issued a proclamation yester-
day In which he said: I'VE have hesi-
tated too long" AT the same time
Schiedemann was saying in front Of the
Reichstag building: I'VE Will not allow
the minority to terrOrize the majority
any longer. The government will sup
press the Spartacus movement with
arms"
The government undoubtedly has the
power TO suppress Liebknecht and Lux
emburg. They have lost their influence
with the Soviets. They are a tiny ex-
tremist minority. But the government.
itself a minority, has been reluctant to
end the Spartacus nuisance because, to
a certain extent, its own position with
the country has been strengthened so
far by the fact that the chief Opposi-
ton to IL has come from the irrecOn-
cilables and Bolshevists II has avoided
military repression for fear Of starting
a civil war.
The Ebert government is reluctant 10
tight Il has never had a chip on its
shoulder. But If its resolves to fight, 1t
ought not to have any great difficulty in
restoring order.
Street lighting will not appeal greatly
TO the German temperament. In the
present crisis, when Germany needs,
above all things, TO show patience and
10 mark time. it would be madness TO
try 10 ape in Berlin the monstrous
tragedy of Russian BOlshevism.

Here is legislation which the current

It's final passage. But the recommen-
dations Of the general staff should be
laid l-rfOre Congress as soon as they
are ready, that there may be ample
time for discussion and for perfecting
the details. What Secretary Baker
thinks about the proposals will have
very little weight with either house
and probably less with the country.
When General Wood first made these
proposals Mr.. Baker sneered at them.
II he espouses them now, after the war
has been fought and won, it will only
be because he Is as much afraid TO Op-
pose them now as he was TO support

THE BRITIsm ON THE SEA.

From the New York Times.
The difference between Great Britain:
control OF the sea and Germany's army
on land Is that nobody had any reasor
to be afraid OF the former. The Brit
lsh fleet is for defensive purposes only
Great Britain Is an island, and would
have small chance OF defence by an
army II an army OF an enemy invaded
her. She must have a greet fleet as
her only sure protection. She has one,
but never has she used It. as Germany
would have used it, to strangle the
trade OF other nations. The seas are as
free TO trade as II Great Britains navy
were the size OF Nenezuela's.
This Is why Germanys conception Of
the freedom OF the seas" in time OF
peace was always without a grain OF
foundation. AS for the war. Britain
has used her fleet as fairly and legiti-
mately as in time OF peace. Her navy
is unstained by any OF the atrocities

Editor Nevada County Picayunc
 Will you allow me to say Il few words in Ghe columns of your paper about the good road proposition?
 As it seems to me that most people dc not understand the proposition or benefits of the good road and we live in free America. where we have free speech and free press. so let Us talk about the good roads pro and con.
 First. we must all admit that at present we have no roads in the rural districts so during the rainy season we can not travel the trails, so that peo- pie that live twelve to eighteen miles from town are compelled 10 stay home Therefore the farmer loses as well aS the merchant A one time last spring a learner had two bales of the staple the price suited, farmer needed the money. but the roads could not be tray elcd.
 The good road l claim is more bene- fit to the people of the rural districts than they of the city, because the good roads bring the city market to the farmers door. l have seen and know of places in Illinois, Indiana and other states where ten years ago roads were like they are in some parts of Arkan- sas, but now they have good roads with good markets. with motor truck lines and that is not all, land that was worth S75.00 per acre ten years ago is today selling at S225.00 to S30000 per acre. Of course some objects to the tax, but many places i'll the north it

 Brother Barham filled his regular ap- pointment at this place today. Bro Barham does not claim to be perfect but l know that he is man that loves the cause of our blessed Lord above everything else on earth. l have talk ed with some of his neighbors, they say he is true man.

So it looks 10 me like the man that fights goQd roads is standing ill his own light and is knock ing the progress of the country because with good roads. we'll have better schools. better churches. better farm Improvements, more enlightenment, in fact q befrer country.
 Well, some say it costs so much to build good roads. Yes. but who wants something for nothing Not Arkansas folks, So lets all yell good roads, preach good roads. help pay for good roads and build good roads right here in Arkansas.
