High Tribute Paid TO Ingenuity, cIev-

Paris.-"The Americans doubt moth
ing. That is the reason they realize
everything in the way Of making the
impossible possible and overcoming all
obstacles"
So says the Petit-Journal, in speak
ing of the enormous docks and ware
houses which the American army has
erected on the coasts of France.
"The Americans" the newspaper
continues, edo big things and they do
them quickly. The question Of time
and other rules which ordinarily de-
termine the possible do not exist for
the Americans. With them the i'm
possible becomes the rule and it is
because of that reason that the Amer
leans are always advancing.
! eThey have constructed somewhere
in France a depot of enormous pro-
portions-already the largest Of all
such depots in France and second larg-
est in the world. A year ago there
was nothing but bare land. Today the
site is actually city.
"To house the thousands Of work
ers-French, Americans, Algerians,
Chinese, Moroceans, German prisoners
1t was necessary to build hundreds
of barracks. Then the magazines,
warehouses, were put up. To get some
idea Of the place it is only necessary
to say that these docks cover % square
kilometers.

FORaER GOVERNOR HEYWARD
ENDORSES GOOD ROADS PLAN

Columbia, S. c., Dec. 31.-The con-
ssruetion of improved highways in
South Carolina would mark the begin
ming of new era in the history OF the
State, in the opinion Of Former Cover
nor D. C. Hayward, who is a very
ayowed supporter of the plan endors-
ed by the State good roads convention
for s25,000,000 bond issue. Governor
Hayward declares that the construc-
tion of a concrete road system connect
ing every county in the State would
be followed by an immediate advance
in the price Of the farm lands. This
advance would not be confined solely
to the farms located along the con-
crete roads, but would also apply to
farm lands in every section of coun-
tya because there will be no section OF
a county that is very far removed
from the improved highways. And, as
Governor Hayward points out, the
county officials will not have to de-
vote any Of their time to the concrete
roads, so that they can use all Of their
resources to improving and maintain
ing the other roads in the county. !.
. Governor Hayward thinks that the
completion of the concrete roads would
result in quickening Of community
Aife in the, country. There would be
better schools and better churches.
Life in the country would at once be-
come more attractive. The young man
could live on the farm and, owning his
own automobile, could, if the roads
were good, go to town whenever he got
ready.
3 The advantage to the farmer from
an economic standpoint would be tre-.
mendous. The market would be acces-
sible at all times for his produce. The
auto truck would solve the problem
of getting truck to town.
Governor Hayward thinks that all
sections of the State would benefit
alike by the improved roads, just as
they suffer alike from the bad roads.
The mud of the Piedmont section and
the sand Of the lower section are alike
drawbacks to the motorist.
ssThe Rhett plan appears to me to
be the best that has yet been offered
one that will come nearer meeting
with general approval" says Mr.. Hey
ward. '.I have discussed it with some
OF the best business men in the coun-
try, and they tell me it is one of the
best plans they have seen. ! believe
that our people can get together on it
and put it over and that it will mark
the dawning of new era for our
State"

WAR CAUSE OF GRAY HAIR
acolor Restoration" Is New Art Devel.
oped by London Hair
dressers.

London.-There has been a great In
crease in gray-haired young women,
due to the war. 1t has brought on a
new trade. Hairdressers have devel-
cped the art of "color restoration"
Bringing the natural color back, per-
r,anently is an expensive operation,
they say, and a difficult one, but it
takes at least ten years from ones ap-
pearance, and the art seems to be de-
yeOping rapidly.

Charles Flake Reported
Shot an Killed in Siberia

Word was received here last
week of the death of Charles
Flake, Snowflake boy who was
serving his country in the u. S.
army in Siberia. No particulars
have so far been obtained but he
is said to have been killed in a
battle with Kolchak rebels while
with the 31st infantry, meeting
his death with three others on
June 22.
Charles Love Flake was a ma
tive son of Snowflake, having
been born here on June IL, 1893.
He leaves a mother, Mrs. Belle
H. Flake, a sister and brother.
Mrs. I'illman Willis and Marion
Flake, all noWin Snowflake, and
a brother, Marshall Flake, now
overseas in the u. S. military
service, a wife and child from
whom he was forced to part to
enter the military service after
only a short period of welded
life, besides a large number of
relatives and friends to mourn
his untimely end.
Deceased was a member of the
firm of Flake Bros, merchants
of Snowflake, and we understand
intended after returning from
the army to establish a drug
store here, he having been a
pharmacist.
This is the second Snowflake
boy ito be killed as a result of
the world war.

THE cow AND THE WEED
CONTRIBUTED |

More about those obnoxious
weeds on the hill lots and else
where about our city.
The present council was elect
ed on the belief that they would
be standpatters on all matters
pertaining to a clean town, and
be progressive on the same lines.
1t would not be in keeping with
the facts, so far as intentions
go, to criticise accusingly of any
but the desire to rid the city of
the menace of the obnoxious
weeds. But is the use of one
menace. supposedly under con-
trol, the best method to combat
another menace? Perhaps a sur
vey of the situation from one or
two angeles might aid IN de-
vising a method of riding the
city of these obnoxious weeds
without retrogressing ra n r
than progressing. If possible
eliminate the nuisance without
adding another to it which was
supposed to have been elimi-
mated, in fact the very nuisance
for the elimination of which the
city was Incorporated. Were
there any obnoxious weeds grown
last year with the cows at lib
erty to eradicate them at will?
When did these obnoxious weeds
first make their appearance?
Under the open range system,
or just since the COW has learned
to stay off of the streets and
sidewalks and out of other peo-
ple's yards and gardens? At best
the cow in all the previous years
she has had an undisturbed op-
portunity to eradicate the OBJ
noxious weed has utterly failed
to fulfill the hopes of our city
council in this crusade. Right
about-face, gentlemen; handle
one public nuisance just the
same as any other and if a thing
has become a public nuisance
declare it to be such and handle
it accordingly. No retrogres-
sion, will mature progression.
Let all pull together for civic
betterment, not losing what has
already been gained, for there
are surer and better ways to
handle the OBNOXIOUS o WEED.
