GOOD
HIGHWAYS
GRADING AND PAVING ROADS
Average Figures for Whole Of United
States Given Out by Bureau Of
Public Roads.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
What part of the cost of i road goes
into grading and structures that are
more or less permanent, and what part
goes into the paving, which may
eventually wear out?
This question is answered fully by
statistics compiled by the bureau Of
public roads Of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture on 1850 com
pleted federal-aid roads, involving T.
500 miles of road, at total cost of
$112,00000. OF the total cost, u per
cent went into grading, II per cent
into structure, 62 per cent into paw
ing, and per cent for engineering.
These are the average figures for the
whole of the United States, but there
is considerable variation in different
sections.
In the Middle Atlantic states.
where grading is not heavy and paving
must be built for heavy traffic. the
cost Of the paving rises to 70, per cent
and the grading and structures fall to
ID per cent and 9 per cent, respective
ly.
In the Mountain states the prob
lem Is very different, much Of the
work being new construction with
heavy grading, and the highest type

SELMER HIGH SCHOOL

The school is progressing nice
ly. The first month has passed
and we feel that we have the
best school we have ever had.
The base ball team went to
Henderson last Friday and. was
defeated 5 to3. This is the first
game they have lost since school
began.
A large number of the students
are attending the Evangelistic
meeting this week.
Both literary societies are Civ
ing splendid programs, and the
public is cordially invited to at
tend these programs.
Miss Ross conducted chapel
Wednesday morning. She had a
splendid program.
If some one would push the
matter ahead we could make
many improvements on the Col
lege Campus.
Let us all work together and
we will have a school second to
none.
The girls have organized q bas.
ket ball team and will soon be
playing. With so many large
girls the other schools in the
county will have to hustle if they
beat the Selmer High School

New England.

Hsw large Is the average truck and
how fast does 1t travel? This question
and others of interest to truck owners
and users of the highways are an
swered by information obtained in a
recent traffic. census taken by the bu-
reau of public roads, United States
Department of Agriculture, on one Of
the most Travelled highways In New
England. The census discloses that
40 per cent of the trucks were Of ton
capacity or less; 33 per cent between
and 21s tons; per cent between
2is and tons; and that less than 4
per cent Of the trucks were of more
than 5 tons capacity.
On a level stretch of road, over
which the speed of motor vehicles
was timed, 1t was found that more
trucks travelled at speed of 20 miles
an hour than at any other rate. Thir-
ty-sesen per cent Travelled 20 miles
an hour or faster One truck. whose
driver said he was In a hurry to get

THE BIG REVIVAL

The churches of Selmer are
united in a great Evangelistic
campaign. The Rev. G. G. Kin
ney and wife of Carterville, ILL.,,
are the leaders.
Mr.. Kinney is well known in
many States as a Bible teacher
and revival preacher. The meet
ings are being held in a big tent,
just in the rear of the court
house. Great crowds are attend
ing these meetings.
The illustrated Bible lectures
at IL O'Clock in the morning at
tract large congregations. AT
night the tent is full of intensely
interested hearers, while many
stand on the outside, to hear the
appeals that come from the ready
lips and warm heart of the
preacher.
Mrs. Kinney, with Mrs. w. K.
Alternately at the piano, leads
the choir of many voices. The
splendid song service of half an
hour before the evening service
is a drawing and most inspiring
feature of the meetings.
Evangelist Kinney in his morn
ing Bible lectures and evening
Evangelistic sermons brings to
the people of Selmer and Nc
Marry county an unusual oppor-
tunity.
The undersigned Selmer pas
tors and ministers take great
pleasure in inviting all citizens
of Selmer and McNairy county
to these meetings:
R. M. VAUGHN, Methodist.
J. w. WALLACE.

one season. but any farmer can
subsoil a few acres each year,
and in that way the whole farm
can be subsoiled, and will be rem
dered more productive and more
easily cultivated.
1t is not lack of knowledge of
how to do things that is the
trouble with many farmers, but
the trouble is to get them to- do
what they know should be done
and can do. We can climb a
ladder only a rung at a time.
We should do our best. and if
we do that we will find that we
are on the road to success and
prosperity.

GRAvELHILL

Hon. H. B. Lewis, the NOM
inee of the democratic party for
representative, spoke here Sat-
urday night,
Our school opened Monday with
Prof. Horny Browder, as princi-
pal, and Miss Bonnie Armstrong,
assistant. There were ga pupils
present, anxious to take up their
work, encouraged by the pres
ence of a goodly number of the
patrons who are ready to COOP
crate in the school work. and the
prospect for the best school we
ever had, is quite encouraging.
The school will continue 6
months. Plans have already been
laid to build a model brick build
| ing next summer and have an 8
or 8 months school next year.
Several of our citizens went to
Selmer Monday and were disap-
pointed in the court not taking
some action on the bond issue.
AS for me and my house, we are
ready to act. So we insist that
we do not let this opportunity
pass.
Being one of the number who
made the trip to Memphis last
week will be expected to say a
few words about the trip. 1t
was an enjoyable one except for
the dust we had to contend with
over the dirt roads. A nicer
bunch of men never represented
any county than were on this
tour. and if there was a one that
didn't enjoy every inch of the
trip, | haven't heard of it. We
were shown all the courtesy pos
sible by .the Memphis Chamber
of Commerce in welcoming us tc
that great city.
