FER-In loving remembrance Of our dear
brother Ted, who passed away five years
ago today. Feb. /. 1918.
Darling brother. how we miss you,
Since you've gone, our hearts are sore;
The weary. empty years drag by,
We miss you more and more.
No more we see your sunny smile,
Or hear your full. rich voice in song.
Home never will be home again,
Since you left is here alone.
Loving MOTHER, SISTERS, BROTHERS

NEW YORK, Feb. 2S.-Daniel st.
John, twenty-three. who, with two
other convicts. escaped from the
penitentiary on Welfare island last
Saturday night. late yesterday gave
himself up. According to Frederick
A. Walls, commissioner Of correc.
tons, st. John telephoned the war,
den at the prison that he would
wait for guards IL they were sent
to Tenth avenue and FOrty-seventh
street. Two guards were sent to
the spot and st. John was three.
Wallis said st. John had given
the authorities the details Of the
escape. but the commissioner said
he could not disclose them at the
time. The prisoners are said ia
have stolen a skiff tied UP at the
island and made their way to q
point near Ravenswood Park, Long

Working on this information, Chief

TRULY, HE WHO RUNS MAY READ"

The democrats are straining every nerve and exerting every.
possible publicity effort to make political capital out of the Muscle.
Shoals deal, with Henry Ford as the bright particular star in the
armament. That the democrats are siding up to Ford in a
manner that will keep him on the anxious bench in the matter
of his possible acceptance for utilization with that party later on,
as a presidential possibility, is as plain and distinct as the cackle
of an old hen.
In the matter of a decision as to which prospective candidate
election campaign parade next year-Ford or McAdoo-the demo-
Gratis are just as much at sea as ever. 1t will continue to be
interesting reading, by those who keep themselves posted on ma
tiOnal events, just how the proposition will pan out.
There are democrats who believe they can win with Ford on
the republican ticket, and there are republicans who hold the
same faith in G. 0. P. success next fall in the event that Ford
decides to enter the race as a democratic candidate Also there
are those in both parties who fear the flivver-buider if he should
consent to run on an Independent ticket, the impression being
that his entrance would be the means of drawing a heavy poll
away from both.
In view of Fords reiterated statements that he finds homsef
unable to conform to the tenets of either party, the resultant
indecision in causing no end of worry to the political heads, more
especially those in the democratic ranks who fear the Independent
democratic vote will be thrown to the present president-"Substan
tal Cal' Cooidge-as against Ford who, in a recent authorized
interview, strongly intimated that if he were president he might
see fit to "try to throw out the entire supreme court" or words
to that effect.
No matter how one looks at it, the possibilities for political
unrest seem unbounded and the field for yelled political propa-
ganda unlimited, with the interest of the voters increasing in
direct ratio. To those of us who try to solve the undercurrent
of things political, it will be well to cultivate the common ability
of being able to "read between the lines" for it is just as true now
as ever, that '"Those who run may. read"
The Bozeman courier. (Bozeman, Mont.) 1919-1954, 1923-10-17
ROADS SHOW DEGREE OF CIVILIZATION

Gibbon, famous historian, wrote "The character and civiiza-
ton of any community can be properly judged by the class of
roads it has"
The community which can afford a good road and is content
to walow in mud, is by this standard, not thoroughly civilized.
This may not be agreeable reading to those contented with bad
roads, yet these very people will judge their neighbors by stand
ards no more exacting. The man who can afford an automobile,
a telephone, a lighting system, a warm house, and good clothes,
and who walks, borrows his n~eighbors' phone, reads by candles,
has a cold house and wears rags, is not called civilized by his
n%eighbors.
A good road is as necessary for the enjoyment of the advan-
tages modern civilization has to offer as is the ability to read
(Which was once the accomplishment only of the priest and the
king).
The abandoned farm is seldom or never found on a good road.
The iGterate child does not live beside a good road. People who
live on or near good roads get to town, see pictures, mix with their
fellows, enjoy a rich social life, visit each other, buy and sell
quickly and easily, are in touch with the world. Those who live
on bad roads cannot even depend upon the R. F. D. if rain or Snow
lays its prohibition upon the carrier.
This great county is away down the list among the Eterate
nations; one of the reasons is the difficulty of educating either
child or adult where mud prevents attendance at school.
GibbOns's measuring rod may not be comfortable, but the
facts seem to show it is accurate.
