NEW YORK, October 30-The pro-
nounced strength in Gulf Oil Of Penn
sylvania stock was the one outstand-
ing feature today in the trading on
the curb exchange. The shares were
actively in demand while the rest of

the movement of prices on the stock

attributed to the successful flotation
of new $33.000,000 issue of 5 per
cent debenture gold bonds. The pro-
ceeds viii be used for the retirement
OF the company's per cent sinking
fund bonds, which will be called for
redemption on February /. 1923. The
new bonds were quoted on the curb
exchange around their subscription
price of 81.

suspended toward the end of last

Collections Poor

There seems to be more travel
ing statesmen than ever before.
They all tell us that business
would be better, but for the poor
collections. They say the mer-
chant does not pay them when
due because the consumer does
not pay the merchant promptly.
This makes a drag in business
that SIS not very encouraging.

few ex. service men as guards.
Those having overseas experience
preferred. They must be sober,
honest and trustworthy. One or
more men from this county are
invited to make application for
such position.
In applying, write plainly your
name, age, military experience,
weight, height, education, politi-
cal affiliations, whether married
or single, age limits not less than
twenty. four.
This position rs entirely out of
politics and no person connected
with the institution is permitted
to engage in political activities

Saturday, April Is, is Farmers
Sales and Market day in Clay
City. This will be the third day.
The Times has learned of much
live stock to be here on that day.
Likewise many buyers have said
they would be on hand to supply
their demands. Remember this
is farmers day and the success of
these market days rests with
them. If the farmers of Powell
county will bring what they have
to sell here on market days and
If the buyers of Powell county
Will come here for their wants,
the success of the sales days is
assured. There has always been
a crying need for better stock
market in the county, and now
that market has been supplied.
AS to whether 1T will develop into
good or bad market altogether
depends on Us the FARMERS.
Come, let us make it a good mar.
ket. The two first market days
were a success, and indications
are that the market day, April
l5 will be another good day.
Let all come determined to be
sober and quiet, while there are
sufficient officers to keep order as
on former market days. They
do not want to have TO make
single arrest.

Our Position Clearly

Senator Moss, of Bell county,
really sincere and capable good
roads man, has written the Times
for an expression on the $780,
600, 600 bond issue for roads.
AS the issue has been proposed
and discussed the Times emphat-
ically says "No" to any further
tax or bonds for roads or any
purpose.
If the state will survey and
contract for the construction of a
brick or concrete road from Stan
ton, Clay City to Campton from
Stanton, Clay City to Winches-
ter; from Stanton, Clay City to
Irvine from Stanton, Clay City
TO Mt. Sterling, have it so ar
ranged that the voting of these
bonds automatically closes such
contract and the roads to be
built within four years or less,
then The Times is for the road
bond issue, if other counties fare
equally as well.
The reason why we oppose any
other provisions We fought for
the change in constitution few
years ago, and it started out well.
When the State collected $780,
600 for road purposes Powell got
$4,000 of this. But as the road
fund grows larger and as the
Legislature tampers with the law
we find up to 1921 when the road
fund reached s7,000.000 Powell
gets $4,000 The law was fixed
right in the beginning, that's the
reason it was changed later
The Times wants roads, but at
this time, we see but one way to
get them-build them ourselves.
No other system presented can
get our confidence except as
mentioned above, and we know
that will not be accepted.

Crabtree Sells Farm

II. q. Crabtree sold Tuesday to
VIM. Barrett, of Lee county, his
home place comprising seventy
five acres for $4,000. Immediate
possession. This is a splendid
little farm and from its location
is very desirable. The sale did
not include any portion of the
Noe land across the river.

To Reopen Road

Legal steps will be taken at
once to open the newly construct.
ed section in Powell county Of
the Irvine road that was feuc.
ed up January 30, by G. w. Nc.
Intosh. This county jointly with
Estill built a bridge across Plum
creek here, and the people spent
several hundred dollars in mon.
ey and work. The road was
opened up and travelled for more
than go days when the Reverend
Sir put fence across the road in
two places. The people who put
in their money to build this road,
but not until after the owner of
the land told them the right of
way was settled, are very indig-
nant, and will seek a mandatory
injunction to reopen the road for
travel.
The use of that good section of
road built largely by the people
to connect Estill with this county
has been rendered useless be
cause of the closing of this road.
