The hopes of the American profess
sional golfers in the eleven hundred
guinea tournament now rest mainly
on the shoulders OF Jock Hutchinson.
Of Chicago.
Hutchinson finished the first days
stroke competition over twenty-sev
holes with 107, giving him a tie for
second and assuring him of a good
position in todsy's round when the
same number of holes were to be
played. The. nrst sixteen to qualify
in the two-day stroke competition
win enter match play tomorrow.
Emmett French, captain of the
American team may get into the
flight for match play. but Walter
Hagen has a big task on his shoulders
and the positions of the other Amer
leans are almost helpless.
The members OF the invading team
were sorely disappointed with their
showing. which they easily traced to
the state of the greens. All com
planned that they were unable to
avoid DOGGY of three puts.

Says Most Messenger Boys Are SO Slow That

BY JOHN p. MEDBURY.

wire, and they bloomed twice before
the messenger boy delivered them.
One messenger thought a tortoise
was a race horse.
There's so little action to a mes
senger boy that it's hard to take
moving pictures of him.
If he was going to race a worm
UP the street he'd want head start.
And then the chances are that the
messenger would come in all out of
breath.
Whenever you see a messenger
walking fast you know he's on his
way home.
When he's barely moving, you
know he's either delivering a mes
sage or going to work.
OF course, all messenger bows
aren't slow, but the ones who rush
haven't been working very long.
Everybody makes mistakes when
they first get job.
But most Of them are so slow that
they won't even buy shirts with fast
colors in them.
Science has discovered how to get
n message from New York to San
Francisco in an hour, but it hasn't
found out how to get 1t delivered In
less than six hours.

CONGRATULATIONS. IN ORDER

This morning congratulations are in order.
First the Good Roads Committee Of the Chamber of
Commerce is to be congratulated
Second the members of the Board of Supervisors
to be congratulated.
Third, the Chamber of Commerce. as a body and as an
organization, is to be congratulated.
Occasion for congrauaton is the putting over of the
plan for the building of the two missing links two of
the most important highways in Lowndes county,
For months The Dispatch has been hammering away on
these projecsurgng the necessity and the advantage
Of connecting the highways and believe that strong
sentiment developed in favor of any plan that would
take care of the situation
So, when the issue came thanks to the Chamber of
Commerees Good Roads Committee, the people were
ready for the question, and it went through without
ron cal'
The enterprise and public spirit exhibited by the Board
of Supervisors is to be commended The board responded
to the will of the people, and speaks we'll for the wis
dom and Judgment of that body.
The Chamber Of Commerce Good Roads Committee
headed by Mr. Thomas j. Locke, and the Chamber itself
presided over by Doctor James W. Lipscomb to be
congratulated for this piece Of constructive enterprise
1t all about by spirit of cooperation the part
Of both the organization and the Board of Supervisors
There must be unity of spirit and purpose and action

day is dawning-a and with it a new spirit-and
out Of these will come bigger and better things for

CLOSING MISSING LINKS HELPS. ALL

Every dollar that comes into Lowndes county, whether
il lands niCoumbus out in the county, contributes that
much towards the total wealth of the county.
Adding to the total of wealth tends towards lower
taxation Or it holds down increase in taxation with
larger funds for public service.
The more money that comes into the county-that
comes here in the form Of radethat here for all
of the commodities Of life-lightms the burden Of
taxation
This is just what the building of the two "mssing
links to the North and to the South Of Lowndes county
will do.
1t means a widening Of Lowndes eounty's trade terri
tory The bringing in of more money and more people
brings added facilities for marketing poducts Successful
marketing depends absolutely volume and operation
and the greater the number Of people ind the number Of
communities participating the greater the advantage to
all the people.
We should keep these thoughts in mind in the construc-
ton of roads Communities and individuals should lay
aside their purely local personal interests for the
good, and then all will wgefit, lotd@Gi ~ 1tHs
We should be broad and liberal in our views Of and in
consideration Of the problems that affect the whole
muniy Such policy will bring prosperity and progress
to all of our interests. 1G4ii NGt
Comparisons may be odous, but we are constrained to
cite incident which happened in Tupoo and Lee county
last year.
An adjoining county, Itawamba, planning the
struction of fine road leading to the Lee county line
After figuring all out the county found that they would
be short about 100000 the project. Mr.. Robins a
of broad and liberal views and one Of the most con-
structiye thinkers and doors in road work in Mississippi
told lttawamba to go ahead with their road and he would
that the money forthcoming Then he went before
the people of Tupeo and put the proposition up to them.
They voted the 100000 the city Tupco and gave the
money to Ittawamba.
1t was good investment for Tupelo. And it was good
for Lee County too
In all community activity we must look to The larger
future developmentthe gradual expansion and growth
that will have tremendous cumulative value in the years
that to come Cities are not buded in day; great
agricultural communities not developed in single
season. We must build today for tomorrow and the
munity the city that builds and plans now with an eye
to the future will profit in the end
