has it had better reply than that
given in the achievements of Mrs
Joe Bledsoe of Oklahoma City.
Mrs Bledsoc was left n widow with
two small children. Her husband
left her some money but that was
placed in the hands Of the courts,
for the benefit of the children and
she had no funds to use for specula-
ton or to invest in a business en-.
terprise.
She was too active and too am.
bilious to remain contented with the
small work Of the average women,
business career for herself.
Her first venture was in the Miami
zinc district whore she undertook to
sell stock. in mining companies Her
work was not lucrative and, there
FORE not satisfactory.
Zinc excitement did not allure for
many weeks and Mrs. Bledsoe de-

She studied the SITUATION as best

She read and kept up with every

MONROEVILLE

Monroeviile, June -(speciaL)- Msmoers of the state highway commits slon have advised good roads advocates O. Monroe county to buy state highway bonds of the first issue to the amount or this county's allotment, and then to organize local construction company to build roads as provided by the new statute and amendment
 This subject has been very generally olscussed throughout the county dur Ing the past week and there is a strong disposition to adopt the suggestion of the commissioners provided the routes 10 be traversed by the roads connecting Monroeville with the county seats in the five adjoining counties are first surveyed and definitely determined.
 Two routes from this point to Camden have been proposed and both have their ardent advocates. One parallels the Louisville and Nashville railroad and the Vredenburgh branch, through the towns of Peterman, Tunnel Springs. Corduroy, Buena Vista and other small stations and is known as the railroad route. The other is from Monroeville to Fountain, Franklin and Tinela, cross ing the G. F. & A. railroad near Fly barts store, and is known as the Ridge route.
 The ridge route is the shorter by sev- era miles, though the railroad route has the greater number of inha bitants directly on the line of the proposed highway The voting strength of the precincts traversed by both routes has been shown to be about equal, and the resident population is presumed to be likewise equal
 Advocates of the two routes have been assured by members of the high

 G. l.. Bailes, finance officer of the post, says that it is perfectly in accordance with the policy of the American Legion to have members in post that live in other cities and towns.
