MORE ABOUT ROADS.

There is nothing more to it,
good people, the community with
roads that are decent the whole
year around has a hundred ad-
vantages to any section that
boasts of roads that can be travel
ed over in comfort about four or
five months in the year. There
seems to be no man so blind as to
argue against this statement, yet
there are thousands, and many of
them right here in Montgomery
county who do not appear willing
to raise their hands to better con-
ditions.
In the first place perfect roads
are .time-saver, and time has
come to mean money. They open
up more and better markets to US,
because we can haul farther and
faster. And they put us in closer
touch with other markets because
we can get. that which we want
from the outside world, and have
to have, right at our doors more
quickly.
We are now about to enter upon
another winter. 1t means about
six months more of hard travel.
But a lot of it could be remedied if
each man would do his best to help
the road contractor put the roads
over which he travels most in good
condition. The old-split log
drag has proved one of the most
successful maker of good roads in
the world. Help the contractor by
dragging in front of your place.

CANNED SERMONS


A Presbyterian conference, held
at Lake Geneva, Wis, recently re-
ported that 5000 out 100000 pull
pits were vacant and pastors to
fill them could not be found at
the present, at least. A high
churchman suggested that until
pastors are found for these
churches that photographic re-
cords of approved sermons" be
ground out to the members-can-
ned sermons, if you please. And
maybe it wouldn't prove a bad
thing. But, this brings to mind
the serious reflection that the
number of-young men of ability in
America willing to devote their
lives to the service of God, as a
profession, is not keeping pace
with the growth in population or
in church membership. Of course
there is a reason for this. It may
be because of the orgy Of extrava-
gance in the world today. The
preacher and his family must live
must eat and wear and enjoy at
The Brandon news. (Brandon, Miss.) 1892-1961, 1919-09-25

least some Of the comforts of life
Are the salaries paid preachers to-
day sufficient to meet the present
day requirements of their position
as teachers and leaders in the
communities in which they I've and
serve? Another thing: Preach
ers who really teach and inter-
est their congregation today must
possess the qualities of leadership
they must possess mental as
well as spiritual power. This is
the day of universal education and
the preacher must be able to inter-
est and instruct an educated con-
gregation and establish his lead
ership or he can accomplish little.
So in the church as in other af-
fairs there is a shortage Of Tabor
ers" and the question is what
will the harvest be?"

Dandruff Surely
Destroys The Hair

Girls-if you want plenty Of
thick, beautiful, glossy, silky hair,
do by all means get rid of dandruff,
for it will starve your hair and
ruin it if you don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out The only sure
way to get rid of dandruff is to
dissolve it, then you destroy it en-
tirely. To do this, get about four
ounces of ordinary liquid arvon |;
apply it at night when retiring; use
enough to moisten the scalp and rub
it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, Of
your dandruff will be gone, and
three or four more applications will
completely dissolve and entirely
destroy every single sign and trace
of it.
You will find, too, that all itch
ing and digging of the scalp will
stop, and your hair will look and
feel hundred times better. You
can get liquid arvon at any drug
store. It is inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need, no mat
ter how much dandruff you have.
This simple remedy never fails

According to the testimony, Jen-

to the detectives testimony.

soldier who was absent without

even had Coleman been a deserter,
the law does not confer upon civil
officer the authority to shoot a per-
son supposed to b. deserter.
Coleman testified he was p years
old and weighed lS5 pounds at the
time of the shooting. knudtson
said he was Sc years old, had served
in the army four years, and in the
police department FIVE years. He

Probably people will never be
able to get such bond bargain

take. It ought to be considered an
opportunity instead of merely duty
