PLEA FOR WELL-KEPT ROADS
Neglected Streets Not Alone unhea!th-
fuI, but Create Bad impression
on the Visitor.

There are 15,450 incorporated
places" in America. OF these 1880
cities, towns and villages only $500 ex-
coed population of $500 people each;
yet these $500 "urban places" contain
100000 people, while 1900 rural
places" contain 100000. Nearly all
the 100000 residents of the $4,000
s'rural places live on unpayed streets,
and the same holds true of large per-
centage of the residents of urban
places" There are no statistics to
show how many miles of streets there
are in the 15,40O incorporated places"
so that we cannot estimate accurately
the percentage Of unpaved streets.
Even without such statistics to indi-
cate the extent of unpaved streets, 1t
would be evident enough to any one
who travels much that most of our
small towns are inadeQuately paved.
Mud half the year and dust the other
half are characteristics Of their
streets.
When we grow unduly elated over
our progress In paving our highways
such facts as these should bring us
to earth-yes, literally to earth-to
the dirt streets that are typical Of most
of our small towns and villages and
also of many Of our larger cities.

SIX REASONS FOR THE
BOYS AND GIRLS CLUBS

First: a boy or girl adopting a
modern practice has from 40 to SO
years to use it as against 20 years
for the average man who adopts a
new practice.
Second: Boys and girls are more
easily Influenced to take up the new
methods advocated by the Agricul-
turai Colleges than are adults.
Third: More boys and girls can be
reached than can adults because de-
mands are not quite SO great upon
their time and they can be readily
formed into clubs.
Fourth: By reaching the boys and
girls, the adults are reached at the
same time SO that the results obtained
In changing the agricultural practices
OF communities are very great.
Fifth A dollar expended for boys
and girls work will produce two to
three times the results for the same
amount expended in adult work for
the reasons above given.
Sixth: Boys and girls club work
reaches the masses (there were $780,
800 in the clubs In 1921, and approx
mately 100000 now and Is feeder
for the agricultural high schools and
colleges. Banker Farmer.

PARKS OF DISTINCT WORTH
Boost Property Vaue-Wise City
Planning Also Factor of Health,
Authority Says.

DR.. George f. Kunz of New York,
president of the American Scenic and
Historical Preservation society, pro
duced a mass of evidence to show how
greatly the presence of any beautiful
natural feature such as park in
creases the value Of surrounding prop
erty in dollars and cents. After dis
cussing the case Of Central park, Doc
tor Kunz continued:
IF, when the plans for the city Of
New York above Tenth street were be-
ing prepared, there had been land
scape architect, or some one with judg-
ment, he could have used the various
ponds for small lakes, he would not
have eradicated every hill, but would
here and there have given us small
park, and would not have laid out the
city on the lines Of a checkerboard,
with q loss OF both beauty and aces
sibility.
INSTEAD Of giving us few avenues
and many streets, he would have re-
versed the order and given us many
avenues and fewer streets, with the re-
suit that traffic would not have been
rendered difficult for many years and
almost impossible as 1t is today. More
over, as the sun rises in the east and
sets in the west, it would have meant
that two or three times as many homes
as now would have had sunlight all the
day, whereas at the present time in
many of the side streets the sun is
never seen and the streets are filled
with Ice, and the death rate Of the en-
tire city has been notably increased by
the little knowledge shown of what
New York was to be in the future. -

What the cltv Needs.

A revival of morality and old-fash-
toned honesty is the most urgent need
of our American life today.
The explanation offered Of the hor-
rible condition in Russia is that men
could not keep UP with the rapid de-
velopments Of civilization and, drop
PING. behind the procession. they are
slowly reverting to barbarism.
Our trouble In America Is that In
the midst of the wonderful scientific
and mechanical development Of 1922
Integrity of character is too lightly es-
teemed and dishonesty in public life is
too easily condoned by the voters.
Our municipal voters have quite
frequently demonstrated that their
standard of accountability has changed
but little from that of the men who
acclaimed Robin Hood as a hero about
FIVE and half centuries ago. 1t mat
tered not to them that he was thief
and an outlaw, SO long as he gave to

of trade. 1t indicates trustworthiness
and responsibility. 1t measures the
vast confidence which millions of citi-
zens repose in institutions that can
be trusted
It is well, occasionally, to ask our
selves what life implies, what our per-
sonal and corporate life implies. 1t is
wholesome, at such time as this In
human affairs, when the world hears
many expressions of lack of conf
dence, when distrust and sorrow are
speaking loudly in economic, social
and political life, to remember that
there are some men and some instftu-
tons that arc and can be trusted.
TIE note of trust cannot be too loudly
sounded in the entire world today.
America Is the worlds Trust Com
pany at present. She Is the worlds
largest creditor, and that imposes an
outstanding responsibility. Our cred
fter position is still new to us, but
after several years of 1t we are able
to perceive that having changed from
a great international debtor to the
greatest international creditor calls
for something more than complacent
reliance on our new position.
What is most needed at this mo-
ment is a general conviction, such as
the Individual banker must always

itor, that it Is creditors duty to
keen his credit sound, to keep his

THE COMMON INTEREST
OF BANKERS AND FARMERS

Bankers and farmers alike are In
terested in a permanent, profitable
agriculture. Banks have ceased to be
mere money-changing institutions;
they are public service stations that
expect to pay in service for what they
secure in profits. Agriculture at the
present time is going through a seri-
GUS crisis There are many problems
in production and marketing to be
solved. There is a call for close and
sympathetic cooperation, not only be-
tween bankers and farmers but be-
tween all intelligent citizens of our
great commonwealth H. Puel-
icher, President American Bankers

Homecoming Always Worth While.

Owning a home is one of the most
satisfactory forms of investment which
can possibly be undertaken. AS with
an investment of any kind, it should
be entered into only after due and
sufficient thought, and one must be
careful not to undertake more than can
be performed. Ordinarily, however, the
objective to be gained is Of sufficient
Importance to justify considerable eff
fort, and even making great sacrifices
to accomplish the ownership Of home
will be worth while In the end.

The Story Of
Our States
By JONATHAN BRACE
XXV.-ARKANSAS
- A RKANSAS
~ sSS|sM n was NAM
MMs @M .M ed after the
NIfMSSsANzN river which
VaIEss IgWSH flows diagon-
WVEAcAS ally through
MSg>SIIM this state and
~ is one of the
chief tributaries of the Missis-
Sippi. 1t Is said that the early
settlers found in this territory,
an Indian tribe named Arkansas,
but the actual meaning Of the
word is not known. 1t probably
has some relation to the word
Kansas. There has been much
confusion as to the correct pro
nunciation of Arkansas. TO re-
move this as far as possible a
resolution was passed by the
state senate In 1881 which speci-
fed that the true pronunciation
was "Ar-kan-saw."
Originally Arkansas was a
part Of the Louisiana Purchase.
It's first settlement was made by
the French about 1885. Except
for the few years during which
by secret treaty 1t was coded to
Spain, it remained under French
rule, until purchased by the Uni-
ted States in 1903. For nearly
ten years after this, it was a
part of Louisiana territory. With
the admission of the State Of
Louisiana In 1872 this northern
section was formed into the Mis-
souri, territory. In 1919 there
was another partition and Ar
kansas territory was created,
which included the present state
and what later was called Indian
territory.
Due to the reports Of an early
explorer named Pike, who visited
this region In 1906, the incor-
rect idea was generally accepted
that most Of the expanse Of
plains east of the Rockies was
a vast desert. This idea per-
sisted to such an extent that as
late as 1850 the western plains
were called In the school geog-
raphies 1.-THE Great American
Desert" Adventurous settlers,
especially from the South, found
conditions in Arkansas quite 9TH
erwise, however, and by 1888
Arkansas was admitted as the
twenty-f1fth state Of the Union
with an area Of 1886 square
miles.
The natural resources of the
state are considerable. There
are the mineral springs of me-
dicinal value, which have been
placed under governmental con-
troll at Hot Springs.
