Grading crews on No, s, the Ash down, Wilton, Mills Ferry Highway, are working the Ashdown city limits this week finishing up the last lap of grading. The gravel haul is waiting for low water, which is practically all that is lacking on the completion of this road. This will give to Ashdown 9 north and south highway and through connection with main trunk highways through Sevier and Howard counties. From a commercial stand point it will be one of the most inn portant. It will make the sixth of the gravel highways radiating from as many directions out of this city, not counting the branches and connections made after leaving the city. With railroads pointing in five directions and hard surfaced highways in six directions Ashdown could well consid- CT herself somewhat of a center.

Little River county has the small est delinquent tax list this year that the editor of the Little River News knows anything about and he has been here thirteen years. Last year 4,500 tracts of land went delinquent for non-payment of taxes. This year the list is only about one-fifth so large This means that taxes are more nearly paid up than for many years. If this does not mean that the people of the county are back to nor nal in a financial way, just what would it indicate? To say the least, it is a mighty good indication that we are gaining ground and are in much bet ter position and coming strong. We note that other counties in this sec tion of the state are approximately small with reference to county and state taxes.

He was obliged to maintain this altitude for about an hour
