ORGANIZATION NEEDED.

Some time ago the question of
water-works was taken up by the
City Council and some of the citizens
of Cloverport. A consulting engineer
was paid to come here and go over
the situation and to give an estimate
on what kind of water system could
city can bond itself
When the consulting engineers re-
port was made everybody who was
not on the main line Of the feeder,
went right up in the air One man who
lived on the out skirts of the city was
one of the very hardest kickers. He
pays 81 so a year poll taxes. Rome was
not built in a day, neither was there
any city in existence that laid down
a system of water-works at one time,
unless it was at some government
camp.
The line as proposed by Mr.. Gillig
was a starter, a fire protection to the
main part of the city. But when the
knockers saw this, cold water was
thrown on the enterprise and at the
last council meeting instead of taking
it up, the matter had to be laid over
to give way to ashphalt streets
through the main part of the city
OF the two enterprises a good water
system would benefit everybody. II
would stimulate the building trades
make the city more sanitary and give
home comforts that are denied many
If the city can be bonded, for
enough to put in the pumping station

the rest of water mains be laid by out

This Man Who Endorses Vola-
Tonic Knew Cincinnati As
A Village Z

When James Dryer, 425 Gin
ton street, Cincinnati, o. gave
statement about a7Tonic for
publication recently the entire
city of Cincinnati was interested.
Mr. Dryer, who is 90 years old,
moved to. Cincinnati in 1885 and
knew that city as a village of
about 1000. He probably is one
OF the Oldest residents of the
city yet living and everybody
was. interested in what he had to
say about VIOLA Tonic.
Stating that Vola-Tonic had
made him feel years younger, Mr..
Dryer went OH to explain his case
fully.
Unfortunately, I had influenza
last winter and have not been
strong SINCE" Mr.. Dryer said
MY vitality was low due to my
age and the influenza further
weakened me- L couldn't sleep
well and was very nervous at
times.
.Vola-Tonic is excellent for
elderly people and for anybody
else who needs more strength"
There's wisdom in the words OF
a 93-year-old man. Years before
most of us were born, James
Dryer was studying conditions
and accommodating knowledge
You can have faith and confidence
in what he says. And he says

body needing more strength. Il

TESTING ROADS FOR HEAVY
TRAVEL

State highway departments are Wit
ally interested in the successful out
come of comprehensive experiments
and tests now being made by the
Bureau of Public Roads of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
One state engineer recently declared
that millions of dollars in his state
are involved in the proper design of
road surfaces, which makes up one of
the problems being Investigated by the
Federal engineers.
The coming into general use of the
heavy motor truck has practically re-
volutionized the science of road build
ing. Big new problems came when
loads of vehicles that placed a weight
one-fourth as much or less. The road
built 10 years ago were constructed
before this fact could be realized
which is one of the reasons. why man,
permanent roads have proved to bo
impcrmanent.
One of the testing experiments be-
ing made by the Federal bureau in
wolves the use of a 49-section road
way in the Arlington farm, owned by
the Department of Agriculture. Each
section was built from a different type
of material, or with different mcthod
IF construction. The same use is
given to each section, SO that even
tually the type of construction best
suited to heavy traffic will prove it:

Thrift Stamp Week Now
On For The Children

Nh y w 1kG A>A1kh&U Ga
Every child in America should be
made acquainted with the fact that
25 cent Thrift Stamps are a splendid
means of saving money. Parents
should know what a fine thing it is
for their children to cultivate saving
habits through the agency of the
Thrift Stamp.
To accomplish these two ends the
Savings Division of the Treasury De
partment has designated the first
week in March as the time, when in
schools, and homes in every part of
the United States interest shall be
aroused in Thrift Stamps. Through
the public press, school journals
notices on school bulletin boards, ir
college papers, women's club pro.
grams, lodge meetings, ETC., the mes,
sage of the 25 cent security will BIZ
universally carried.
This week not "drive" whose pur
pose is to dispose of a tremendou.
number of Thrift Stamps during tn,
days named. Rather it is an inten
sive educational movement to i'm
plant thrift in the minds of the young
1t is hoped that every superintend
ent and teacher in the United State
will aid in making Thrift Staml
Week, March l to 6 an impressive
success.

NECESSARY FOR BUSINESS

What would happen in community
if newspapers had to go out of bust
ness is told by the Fourth Estate:
A dispute over print paper charges
caused newspaper proprietors of Win
nipeg, Man., to suspend publication.
A recent dispatch from Winnipeg fur
nished the sequel.
The customary activity and gayety
Of the street largely disappeared.
Widest rumors became current as to
local and worldwide news develop
ment, with the great mass Of >popula-
ton unable to tell what to believe.
Tremendous decrease in business was
felt. Mercantile houses usually crowd
ed by bargain hunters and other Gus
toners at this time Of the year suffered
great losses. Traction companies, the
atres, and other enterprises and indus
tries reported decline in the volume
Of business.
The conclusion generally drawn from
Winnipeg's experience is that business
cannot be effectively transacted and
the daily life Of the city cannot func-
ton without newspapers.
