Road Bonds Tested On Short

The S5OO,O00.00 bond issue for
good roads is to be promptly

those looking after the matter
that by the time the surveyors

port, about the first of May, that
the .technicalities will have been
disposed of and work on the

people liberated by war; the
American Red Cross as a part OF
its program of shipping one
million garments to refugees
monthly, will conduct a mammoth
collection of clothing, shoes,
and blankets throughout the
United States during March.
Red Cross representatives

of the European Relief Admins

mediate supply of every kind OF
clothing is absolutely vital to the
health and life of millions of men,
women and children, freed from
the German yoke.
The field for relief in northern
France, Belgium, Italy, Rumania,
Serbia, Greece, Montenegro,
Palestine, Albania, Czecho.slova.
kia and Poland is so vast that the
main problem can only be coped
with by Allied governments.
Very valuable supplementary
relief can be rendered by the Red
Cross, however, and. accordingly,
its millions of members and the
American people at large will be
asked to assist by the donations
of clothing that will prove a veri'
table Godsend to those who have
borne the brunt of Germany's as
sault on civilization.
Collection will be made just al
q time when practically the whole
country is discarding winter
clothing, much of which woule
never again be donned by
owners. Thus, at a minimum 0
sacrifice, American people wi Il b.
able to show in a most substantial
way their brotherhood to thos
who still suffer. At least tel
thousand tons of clothing ar
needed in the drive, which will b
conducted by all Red Cross chap
ters. Without delay garment
will be shipped to a concentra

Bill introduced In Senate and

Church Organization Will
Also Give Practical Aid.
WILL PROMOTE EDUCATION
The Significant Movement OF the
Times Is That of the Centenary
of the Methodist Episcopal
Church South---Will SpenS Mil
lions Among the Uneducated.

The fact that several thousand sol'
diers were unable to understand the
orders given them from their superiors
and that many, many thousands coulo
not sign their own names to thelr
missionaries brought to light con-
dition 80 serious that two Southern
Representatives at Washington are
now introducing bills to promote the
education of illiterates throughout the
length and breadth of America. Sena'
tor Hoke Smith, OF Georgia, has intro
duced a bill in the Senate ito promote
the education of illiterates, OF persons
unable to understand and use the Eng
lish language, and other resident per-
sons of foreign BIRTH" and the same
measure has been introduced in the
House by Hon. William B. Bankhsad,
of Alabama.
The introduction of this important
bill means a great deal to the South,
which, because of its negroes and
mountain whites, has long borne q
reputation for illiteracy out of proper
ton to that of the rest of the coun'
try. Just what steps will be immedi'
ately taken as the result Of the passage
of the education of illiterates bill at
Washington cannot be stated at this
time, but, certainly, practical meas
ures will be put into operation for the
establishment of schools in both rural
districts and cities.
Other organizations besides that OF
the government are at work on the
same problem-the establishment OF
schools in the heart Of tenement dis
tricts and rural communities being q
