WELL PLEASED
WITH ROAD WORK

The following news item comes
from Brush Creek:
The people thru this section are
highly eIated over the progress the
highway commission is making in con-
structing the road leading from New
Middleton via Brush Greek to the De-
KaIb County line near Alexandria.
Work began about the middle of Feb
ruary working from railroad crossing
at Brush Greek in opposite directions
as provided by law. There is no con-
tractor in the United States or Canada
who can equal these men when it
comes to speed, economy and durabili-
ty. In fact, that seems to be their
motto Machinery was a little slow
in showing UP but one by one they all
drove in. The first on the job was
Mr.. Catipiller Tractor who can cross
a ditch or climb a wall for this ma
chine is the master of them all. We
also have a grader, a scarifier, too.
Put these three together and there's
nothing they can't do. The only thing
in our way now is fences, telephone
and electric light poles and when we
get this obstruction away we are gone.
One mile of new road was graded
and ditched in two days at a cost of
seventy dollars with the above men
toned machinery and five men. Who
can better that for economy? Two
miles of road has been sub-graded
with from six to eight inches of rock
graded and scarified for less than half
the money appropriated for road
building in Smith County. Authori-
tatives have estimated that we are
saving with this machinery fifty cents
per cubic yard in our road building
which means if the county can be sup
piled with enough of this class of ma
chinery we can have more roads and
better roads

BODY FOUND
NEAR ROME

The body of w. D. Young, who
drowned in the Cumberland river by
falling from gasoline boat at the
Carthage wharf on the evening of
March 3rd, was discovered yesterday
Wednesday, short distance below
Rome, which is about Is miles below
Carthage by water. The BODY. which
was discovered by Frank Presley, was
hanging in a drift against Rome is
land.
Presley Immediately reported the
discovery and the body, which was
considerably decomposed, was brought
to Rome and examined by a jury of
inquest. 1t was very easy to identify
the body as being that of Mr.. Young.
both on account Of the clothing that he
was known to be wearing at the time
he was drowned and a ring on hi
left hand bearing his initials. Tn
remains were taken in charge at Rome
by an undertaken and conveyed to his
home at WatertOwn where they
were laid to rest today in the family
burying grounds. Rev. T. Riley Davis,
pastor of the Carthage Baptist church,
was called to WATERFOWL to conduct
the funeral service.
Another identification was the watch
worn by Mr. Young. The hour Mr.
Young was drowned was near z o'clock
and his watch stopped at o'clock.
It is the opinion of old river men that
his body must have risen Tuesday
night near Carthage and fioated to
the scene of the discovery, while
others claim that as the body was
floating quite high when found that
it must have been floating some days.
Mr.. Young, with his family, moved
RI f1ao of oh
four years ago, and established a
produce business here, and he and
his family moved back to Waterfowl
only few days before his death. He
was about so years of age and had a
number of friends in Carthage who
extend sympathy to the bereaved fam
lily.

Dixon Springs To Have
Beautiful Cemetery

Perhaps the most beautiful loca-
ton for a cemetery surrounds the old
public cemetery at Dixon Springs.
Last June d. d. Martin of Hickman,
J. NJ Cox of Carthage, H. B. Cox of
Dixon Springs and j. NJ Freed of Dix
on Springs bought lands adjoining the
old cemetery for the purpose of beau
tifying, opening up and selling to the
public burial lots.
They have cut out the old hedge
and leveled the land and sowed in
bluegrass, set out number Of shade
trees, surveyed and laid off walks and
driveways, giving each lot a front, so
that its owner may go to and from his
lot witohut interfering with any other
lot. The location and arrangements of
this cemetery will make it the most
desirable place for burial purposes of
any in this section of the state If
interested see any of the above named
parties.
d. D. Martin was here last week
looking after the cemetery and assist
ing in arranging for decoration and
memorial services at 2 p m. the last
Sunday in May. At this annual event
the relatives and friends of departed
loved ones assemble and deposit flow
ers as a token of love Then pro-
gram of songs and talks of one hour
will be rendered. The committee of
arrangements will announce the pro-
gram soon AS this is on the fifth
Sunday it does not interfere with any
monthly meeting so all preachers of
all denominations are especially re-
quested to be present and assist
