VALUE OF A ROAD

virtues are social; not a few of the
vices are individual.
Thus the transportation problem
is a moral as we'll as commercial
proposition. The road builder Is a
forerunner Of civilization. He is
adding immensely not only to the
market value Of things. but to the
moral values of life, who enables
US to get together.
Every ship that sails the seas and
every train that tunnels q mountain
or bridges a river becomes an evan
gelist of human BROTHERHOOD and
an apostle of internationalism.
We begin to see what Jesus meant
when He said: Il am the way" He
is the road through the jungle. He
brings men together. He estab-
fishes social contacts. He is the
foe of ignorance, superstition, big
otry. and hate. He is the worlds
highway, for His humanity is SO big
that all men may find their way in
Him. AS they meet each other
along this road and establish the
relations of life there suggested HUI

One would have imagined that she had

she was shouting for victory for the visitors.
But this was not SO, for the reason that

Occasionally he would urge her to not be so
demonstrative, but she refused to heed him.

minute of play, when, SO hoarse that she could
barely speak above whisper, she took her

for her favorite team. Folks 60 to sporting

to see Rock Island win. Rock Island people
don't feel that way when Davenport is con-

Men Must Sacrifice.

Last week there was called an important
meeting of the Rock Island Chamber Of Com
MERGE. One OF the matters scheduled for at
tention was nomination of officers to be voted
upon in January. When the hour for converting
the meeting arrived it was discovered there
was not a quorum present and an adjourn
ment was necessary.
The Chamber of Commerce u.s. or ought to
be, the civic handspring of Rock Island. 1t
has membership Of several hundred repre-
senting all lines OF business and the profes-
siOns. Such body of men, acting harmon
iously, can accomplish almost anything it sets
out to do.
Simply joining an organization and paying
dues does not fill ones responsibility to his
community. The Chamber Of Commerce will
be only as strong and useful as its personnel
determines 1t shall be. A secretary is helpless
unless he has the impetus Of cooperation be-
hind him.
In other cities the Chambers Of Commerce
are getting results for their communities
There is much OF good to be done in Rock

Rock Island is a city Of $4,000 population
There are men here who know how to dc

All that they lack is the purpose to get to-
gether and the will to do.
II the Chamber of Commerce is to be what
it was intended that 1t should be when its

awakening among its membership Men mus,
be willing to serve. even though in doing Sc

want to forget him. 1t is useless tt
expect him to come back to you

write will make him think less Of
you. Doubtless he loved you at tn,

The thing for you to do is to TAKE
