MORE GOOD ROADS BIG NEED

To determine the average mileage

western city of around 100000 popu-

would make longer trips if the roads
permitted, 50 per cent stated they usu-
ally made their trips out into the

From these figures it is easy to
see that more good roads will in

RULE FOR BORROWING MONEY
Farmer Should Make Sure That Pur.
pose Will Return Greater Re-
turn Than the Debt.

Farm credit is good agency in the
hands Of those farmers who know how
to use ii, but it is dangerous element
of farm business If its nature and
purpose is not fully understood. An
unproductive enterprise is not a safe
basis on which to borrow money un-
der any conditions. 1t is more i'm
portant that the enterprise shall be
productive than that the rate of in
terest at which one can borrow money
be high or low. Farm-credit special
lists of the United States Department
of Agriculture lay down one essential
rule TO be followed by the farmer who
proposes to borrow money: Make sure
that the purpose for which the Dor
rowed money is to be used will pro-
duce a return greater than is needed
to pay the debt.

Cliff Bragdon, Veteran Actor,
At Gayety on His An

A veteran in burlesque and
ranked among the most popular
comedians Of this amusement, Cliff
Bragdon is back to Washington on
his annual visit. playing with Sam
Howe's New Show" at the Gayety
this week.
Bragdon has graced the bur-
lesque and vaudeville stages of the
country for nearly twenty years
and as yet has not signifed his in
tention of leaving either of these
two fields of amusement. Each
year, during the wait between the
burlesque seasons Bragdon takes a
sail along the somewhat rough
waters of vaudeville. playing only
the better class of theaters, and he
finds increasing popularity each sea-
son as he plays to the two-a-day
audiences.
Cliff has worked" every charac-
ter known to even the older of bur-
lesque patrons. He claims that II
burlesque producers were to pro-
duce reviews similar to Broadway
productions. without any Of the
the cast. the show would fail.
Bragdon asserts that the present
day, theatrical conditions are due to
the uncertainty OF conditions
throughout the world. He says,
The producers life of today Is Just
one continuous gamble. The the
atrical gone is similar to the popu-
lar 'put-and-take" game-the pro-
ducer puts a lot into production
and takes long chances on getting
1t back. OF course, the producers
OF today are presenting the best
burleesque shows that have ever
been produced. but as soon as busi-
ness conditions throughout the
country are settled. bigger and
more lavish burlesque revues will
be placed before theatergoers."
