CATCHING THE STRIDE

Vernon has sold her road bonds al
premium.
Now the Parish Jury is going to be-
gin awarding road-building contracts,
Strengthening out crooked roads, and
doing the preliminary work toward the
realization Of this expenditure of mon
ey.
Louisiana is boosting for good high
ways, and in many Of the parishes
large appropriations have been made.
A community is Judged by its pub
lie works. Strangers cannot Judge
in any other way. Any community
that must be reached by wading thru
the mud is not considered worth reach
ing BY the prospective investor. But
the community that extends such ma
terial invitation as a good road implies
is bound to entertain many visitors,
Vernon has begun. Let the good
work go on. Let this parish do its
part toward finishing the work Of con-
Meeting the north and the south ends
Of the state with a good highway.
Then watch the auto traffic that will
come this way. People who never be-
fore knew that West Louisiana existed
viii find il out from the good-roads
maps. They will come this way be-
cause it is a new route. They Will
want TO see the cut-over lands which
have been given so much publicity in
the papers over the country.
Tourists are one Of the most profit
able lines Of trade in parts Of Florida,
Southern California, New York City
and some other places. The tourist
crop is unfailing and highly remuner-
ative. In all parts Of the country il
IS a source Of more or less revenue
Tourists buy automobile accessories
groceries. stay at hotels. buy gasoline
and oil, have work done, spend money
in many ways. Many Of them who vii
come to this part Of the country viii
come as home seekers. They will in.
crease land values. They win buy
land that can be reached BY good roads
Thus it is clear that good roads hav,
a value that is purely commercial, al
well as the many other reasons why
they should be built.
That Vernon realizes this and is tax
ing her part in the state road building
campaign is a promise Of increased anc
varied prosperity. There can never b
too many good roads

ditions, that between 100000 and T.
100000 of these undernourished peo-
pie died Of influenza, and that 75,-
100000 receive barely one square
meal in two days? This starving peo-
pie contributes to Imperial Britain in
drain of one sort or another for the
benefits of administration and interest
on capital an amount estimated at
from $l00,000,000 to $200,000,000.
Her new budget calls for an expendi-
ture of more than $200,000,000 on
the military about 1871 Of the total
budget.
These figures give the background
Of Indian unrest. which is today econ
omic even more than political. The
Montague-CheImsford home rule bill
will not meet this economic situation.
Meanwhile its passage has been held
up in Britain while in India not con-
structive legislation but extremely CO.
ersive anti-sedition laws have been pas
sed. In consequence Of this miserable
situation there have been series of
strikes among the grossly underpaid La
borers in British owned industries, and
political riots in the leading cities.
Fiinally-and most significant of all
the hitherto apathetic peasantry have
rebeIled in district after district not on
" against British rule, but in favor of
the ancient system of communal land
ownership. The Viceroy is satisfied
that open rebellion exist" and has put
about one third of the country under
martial law. This revolt is the achieve
ment of people deprived Of all arms
and Of any general popular education,
attained by methods ranging from pas
sive resistance inspired by that extra
ordinary modern saint and friend of the
oppressed, M. K. Gandhi and Mrs. Sar-
ojini Naidu, the poet, to terrorism aft
ter the Russian pattern organized by
the Young India Party. No sane OBJ
server can believe that India will imme-
diately gain her independence; that
she should show so rapidly growing a
desire for it is fact more significant
even than such important European
news as the fate Of Fiume. 1t vitality
concerns the workers of America and
Europe, whose radicalism too generally
ignores Asia. No solidarity of the
working class. no human brotherhood,
is complete or secure which ignors or
excludes the vast populations Of the
ancient and virile civilizations of India
and China. Lajpat himself an
Indian home ruler, not an extreme ma
tionaIist-writes in The New Repub-
lic'' for April 10Th, "A feeling of unity
against the West is developing in the
Orient. and he points out the terrible
possibilities Of this spirit Of hatred fos-
tered by our western imperialism. II
is obvious that iii the nature Of things
the competitive system cannot bring
about fair solution Of the relations
between Asia and the West; the poinI
we must emphasize is that IN the long
run the acid test Of all forms of cooper
alton will be found in their capacity
to assert an inclusive brotherhood il
which the free peoples Of Asia may
share.

.f<T UNE BUG DAY"-it's al
81 most herel And those who
keep the day Of the June
bugs are now feeling its spell.
You'll not find it circled in red on
printed calendars; you'll search in
vain for it in holiday lists; papers
will not announce its arrival or
herald its departure. June Bug day
is the sunshine holiday of an Oma-
ha woman-Mrs. Franklin A. Shot
well;l her original and own day
that's celebrated in her eyes, her
heart and spreads into the eyes and
hearts of all her friends, who, with
her. bow to- the appearance of the
June bug. Think just a minute
that June. the month of all months,
should be holiday-less! There's
monotonous yearin-and-year-ou
holidays in dreary months and cold
months-month of snow and months
of rain, but June, the princess month
of the year, when the holiday spirit
is on, there is no holiday to cele-
brate.
Mrs. Shotwell thought OF this two
years ago-and the result? She
coined June Bug day.
You know him-the fat, little,
shiny, puffy. wiggly June bug! He
comes with the first breath of June
and he seeks the warmest of sun
shines. he kicks up his funny little
feet. and plays and plays. He
spreads his gauzy pretty wings,
shakes himself and awakes to life
with a glad-to-be-a alive feeling. He
hurts no one in particular. but says
unto the winter-saturated world:
Spring is over and summers here,
the playtime of the year"
It's this first new bug that has
day of its own. June 2 Mrs. Shot
we'll chose for his day" For when
they first come they're the spark
that kindles happiness-they haven't
lived long enough to be stepped on
and "sauashed" and bruised and
hurt. Life is the present-May is
gone and July is of no consequence.
What matters is that June and the
sunshine are here.
Their little wings are natural and

have Stepped on them" during the
winter months; they forget that
likely there will be Others who will
hurt them during the coming
months; they forget that even June
bugs cease to be. and that some
times when their wings have been
