Road Improvement Develops The
Country

The way the highway building
spirit is taking hold of the peo-
pie of this county speaks well for
the future. We have people
that does not believe in putting
off things for some other genera
ton to do, but believes in doing
them and enjoying the benefits
thereof now. Only a few years
ago every chamber of commerce,
every commercial club and every
real estate company and all the
newspapers preached the doctrine
of going after foreign investors
to come into our state and develop
our great resources for us. We
were overlooking the fact that
the developers Of a country are
those who reap more largely Of
the fruits. We were also unmind-
full of the fact that foreign capital
is slow to take hold where the cit
liens themselves are backward.
Today we have come to know that
the rewards are greater if we do
these things ourselves. Others
are still welcome, but that is sec
ondary. We are going to put this
thing over; we are going to build
a greater state and a greater coun-
try, and we mean to be on the
ground floor. That is why the
highest prices being paid for land
are being paid by home people.
That is why that when a meeting
is called to build one little road it
results in plans to build two or
even three. We are not afraid Of
our money here in Little River
county. We nave learned some
things. We have quit chasing
smoke-Stacks and gone to develop
ing our great agricultural lands.
The smoke stacks and the skyline
will be another result.-Ashdown

A New Day For The Railroads

We believe that the railroads
are on the eve of great expansion.
With the increasing growth Of
population and the immensely of
commerce, the people will demand
and will get for the railroad cor
porations the cash they must have.
The people have not lost faith in
the railroads; on the contrary,
their attitude toward the disad-
vantages under which the rail
roads are laboring because of gov
eminent control is one Of the eyi-
dences of their desire that they
would have the entire system back
to its normal state, that is, as pri-
vate lines, so there might be less
restricted opportunity for deyel-
opment. This will come. 1t can
be advantageously carried out on
ly by the companies themselves,
without undue interference by
government authority.
= We are not so unreasonable as
to expect that the government
will release its hold entirely on the
railroads, for we believe, as do
the railroads themselves, in . wise

found in the outfit. 1t turned
cold. We could have no fire be-
cause of the smoke. We shiyered
IN our misery, We were downright
cold. Grub became scarce and we
went hungry. We huddled to-
gether at night to benefit from the
warmth of our bodies. Darkness
was before US, but what beyond?
We thought as never before. Our
entire outlook on life seemed diff
ferent We pondered long on ques-
tons which had held no interest
ever for US. Our relation to cur
fellowmen seemed something new.
We We're understanding the mean
ing of devotion, duty and service.
How we yearned to get out of
those woods Each day seemed
week. Anything would be bet
ter. Nothing could be worse. Oh
for some excitement to take our
minds off rain and mud, cold and
suffering
The order came up to move up
for the attack. We knew we were
going into one of the big events Of
the war. We refused to think
very far ahead but our vision took
in all our past lives. Inwardly
and secretly we told every loved
one good bye. We were a rather
solemn bunch as we pulled out of
those woods just after dark and
started forward.

THE GREAT ADVENTURE

The last night of the hike found
US physically exhausted We
plugged along, so tired We were
ready to drop. Each step was
added torture. \ binding rain
was driving straight into our
faces. Terrific flashes of light

clothes chung to our bodies. The
road was filled with mud. Horses
and men slipped and slid along.
On every hill carriages stuck IN
the mud. Horses could not bulge
them. Men put their shoulders
to the wheels and showed the guns
up the Mill. A wild desire to do
or die thrilled US and no one
would drop out.
Break of day found US cutting
our way into the woods where I'M

When The Roads Go Back

These are critical days for the
nation and especially critical for
the. nation s economic system. The
public has indicated that it wishes
a continued trial of private own
ership. That being the ease, it
should give such ownership and
operation fair and square treat
ment. Reasonably remunerative
rates, at least moderate supplies Of
new capital al figures that will
make it possible to use the funds,
and support in the maintenance
of a Just and equitable position
with respect to labor, are among
the essentials which must be fur
nished in order to make the res
toration of private control sue
cess.
On the other hand, the roads
themselves, recognizing that they
are on trial as never before, must
mike every effort to throw off the
paralysis of inefficiency which
has crept over them under gov
eminent management and must
endeavor to meet the needs and

Children Need Wholesome Food

At least one-fifth of all the
school children in the United
States are under nourished today,
it has been estimated. This con-
dition is not the result, as i'll many
lands, of lack Of food, but comes
about because in many cases
American mothers are not giving
their children the right kinds
Of food. The right kind is not
necessarily more expensive than
the wrong kind and oftentimes
costs less. An mdernourished
child is physically, mentally and
sometimes morally below par and
shows its appearance, school work
and conduct.
In order to arouse the attention
of parents to the necessity of Civ
ing a child proper food, at many
fairs home demonstration agents,
working under the United States
Department of Agriculture and
the State agricultural colleges,
have measured and weighed the
children brought to them at their
booths. At the Windsor fair in
Connecticut III boys and girls
were weighed and measured by
the home demonstration agent.
The majority were from s to II
years of age. OF the IS boys who
were weighed, 43 were under
weight Of the 90 girls, 30 were
under weight. Arrangements
have been made with the home
economies committee of the town
to follow up the cases where there
were marked signs of malnutri-
ton. The children themselves
were much interested and were
keen about learning how to gain
weight and health. Bulletins on
child feeding and suggestions as
to changes in diet were received
with appreciation.
Talks on proper diet for child
are sometimes given to the chill
dren in school rooms. In Potta-
watamie county, Iowa, the home
demonstration agent in September
talked to 5,029 children in schools
on the value of milk, cereals and
vegetables in their diet.
When possible a second weight
ing is made several weeks after
the first talk, when the children
have had time to obain results
from changing their diet. The i'm
provement is marked in those who
have followed instructions.

That the mail bandits were en-
