While up there made a very pleas
ant and I hope helpful visit to the
Chappells school. / was glad to see
that the community league has had a
nice driveway made from the public
road up to the school house and fixed
up the entrances and planted some
trees. They need to give a little
more attention to the upkeep of the
building. This l am sure will have
attention at once.

At one time during the day the
weather was threatening, but about 8
or four O'Clock the sun came out, and
being so near home I decided to try
the old road from Chappels to river
and make a call at least long enough
to say the time of day to .he folk at
home. The road is not near so bad
as l expected, and with a little more
work right now would be in very
good shape, and as it seems that it is
going to be the good old summer time
before the federal government gets
ready to start something on this road,
it would be we'll to give the old road
at least another working. At any
rate, and in the bad condition of the
road, made the nine miles in half
hour and had half hour at home.
The road on the Greenwood side and
up that hill that used to be the main
dread of the trip, you can trot along
in high without the slightest trouble.
1t seems almost beyond believing that
such a road could be so much inn
proved, and then you wonder why the
people stood the old road so long
when by such little work good road
could be the result. But it is true
and the same good road extends or
to Greenwood. The improvement uE
this long hill is one of the most con
vincing arguments in favor of ,gooc
roads, if argument is needed to con
vince any one.

BOYS FATE IN
JURY'S HANDS

MORRISTOWN, July 14.-The
final chapters of the trial of Fran
els Kluxen, 3rd, charged with the
murder of Janet Lawrence, Madison
school girl, were enacted today
with the summing up of both sides
and the charge of Justice Parker.
It is expected the case will go to
he jury this afternoon.
Special Prosecutor Harrison
started summing up shortly before
1con.
Young Kluxen, who was fifteen
years old last January, was put on
the stand late yesterday. Even many
who had been particularly vindica-
tive toward him admitted he made
a remarkable witness. His memory
vas excellent. his demeanor cool, and
his nsw were to the point. When
the defense rested. the prosecution
announced there would be no rebut-
tai. and court adjourned for the
summing up today.
The boy was preceded on the stand
by his father and mother, who APP
peared nervous. The defense fol-
lowed two main lines. Elmer King,
counsel for Kluxen, tried to show the
boys actions on the day of the MUIR
der by his own testimony, that of his
parents and two neighbors, and to
bring out evidence duplicating Frank
Jancarek, who has been acquitted OF
the murder.
