State Highway Commissioner Cole
man, of Virginia, has decided that a
state road will be built across Clarke
county from the Opequon Greek
through Boyce and Wildwood to the
top of the mountain on the Berry's
Ferry and Paris road. The portion
of the road from the Opequon to Win
chester is being built now. AS it will
be part of the Washington Winches-
ter highway, it will be one of the finest
constructed highways in the state and
will be wide enough for the passage
of two vehicles. 1t is understood in
state road circles that it will be only
matter of short time before the
state takes over the Berryville and
Wildwood turnpike and the Berryville
and Charles Town turnpike to the
West Virginia line, making it state
road and free of tollgates.

VICTORY CAMPAIGN
4O,OOO,OOO BUTTONS READY
Special Trains Carrying War Booty
Touring Country-Predict Over
Twenty Million Subscribers

Washington, Apr. 21.-Through-
out the United States the Victory
Liberty loan campaign opened today,
the last. and. probably the most spec
tacular Of the five money drives
made by the government as the prin-
cipal means OF financing the war.
Several hundred thousand citizens
have enrolled as volunteer speakers,
or solicitors for this issue of Victory
notes. and for many months the
treasury, through the IL Liberty
loan district organizations has been
perfecting selling plans.
From public platform, theatre
stage. movie screen, and street cor
ner box, citizens will receive the ap-
peal to buy notes to provide the
funds which virtually have already
been spent for war purposes since
the signing of the armistice. From
door to door volunteer canvassers
will go in an effort to make the num-
Der of subscribers to this loan exceed
even the 20.000,000 OF the Fourth
loan
Among the spectacular publicity
features arranged by the treasury to
call sharp attention of the American
people to the loan, are aerial demon
strations. war exhibit trains, posters.
exhibition of captured German sub
marines. and military exhibitions.
Three special trains will tour the
country, carrying squadrons of air.
planes. manned by celebrated Ameri-
can, French and British aces, to
make circus flights over cities. Four
teen captured German Fokker planes
will be used in these demonstrations
together with the best type of Amer
lean planes.
To each community oversubscrib-
ing its quota a community honor
flag will be awarded by the treasury
as an official acknowledgment Of
the achievement. Similarly an in
dustrial honor flag will be given to
each business firm, church. lodge or
other Organization with IL or more
members, whose members subscribe
according to a prescribed proportion.
More than 100000 of these flags
have been placed in the hands of
distributing agencies.
Medals made from captured Ger
man cannon are to be given to each
member of Victory loan commit
tee. The medal is about the size of
a half dollar and bears design of
the United States treasury building.
Space is left on each medar for the
name of the recipient.

SNOW AT Crater LAKE

Klamath Falls, Ore. Apr. 21.-
There is nine feet of snow at Crater
Lake now according to H. E. Nom
yet, assistant superintendent OF Cra-
ter Lake park, who keeps the re-
cords there during the winter
months. This is the normal amount
OF snow for this time OF year, he
stated. There is twice as much now
as at this time last year.
The Crater Like highway is open
and in fair condition between Med
ford and PROSPECT; closed on account
of snow between Prospect and the
park boundary. 1t probably will be
open by July /. On account Of the
heavy snowfall 1t is doubtful II autos

park before July.

Washington, Apr. 21.-The de-

Is expected a proposal that the en-
forcement be entrusted to this
agency will be submitted to Presi-
dent Wilson on his return from Eu-

Discussion OF where the power 70

was prompted here by the recent an
nouncement of Internal Revenue
Commissioner Roper that his bureau
had not the force TO police the ma
tion adequately with respect TO pro-
hibition violations after July 1.
Attorney General Palmer has not
stated officially that he will welcome
the additional duties of enforcing
prohibition, but II is said that his
advisers in the department of jus
tice have told him that enough secrei
service agents are available to take
on this function.

OF his address he said:
"The reconstruction days are here.
The best results OF the war should
he taken advantage OF. The days OF
selfish consideration are gone. II
Is no longer every man for himself,
but every man for every other man.
The outstanding facts OF this war
warrant the belief that we are on
the verge OF great day OF commun-
ity development. The nations re-
sources are to be laid under tribute
for the good OF the white people. The
supreme sacrifice OF our American
soldiery will go for naught unless
the nation at large is willing to learn
the lesson OF this conflict and ap-
proprlate them to its own develop
ment. Grants Pass Ia not Josephine
county. Portland is not Oregon, each
isolated section must be reached
with whatever blessing the nation
itself enjoys. The back TO the farm
cry will not be realized until every
remote section OF the land has felt
the impetus of the nations recon-
struction plan. The country boy and
the girl In the out-of-the way places
OF the country are entitled to all
that the city boy and girl enjoy, only
as this is so will the development,
OF the whole people be realized.
'one OF the ready means OF com.
munity development Is that OF COM
munity singing and community rec.
reation. Men and women are only
children grown, and the play instinct
Is In every normal man. Nothing
will so develop this and AFFORD It ar
opportunity for expression like com
munity song. A singing communit,
Is harmonious community and 9
harmonious community is n winning
community. Life becomes worth
while.
"a movement is now on foo
which promises to become natior
wide in which the gospel OF commun
ity song is to be carried to the re
motest bounds OF the country. The
value OF this as community asse
cannot be overestimated. Genera
Pershing has said that song was on'
OF the big factors in the success o
the American soldier. What is tru'
as war time measure Is true 70
our peace times. Let's sing"
Then DIR. Polling proposed that tn,

in a never dying recollection OF 1t
