GOOD ROADS AFFECTING
HOUSE ARCHITECTURE
IN THE COUNTRY
Better Farm Living Results From
Hard Surface Highways

According to statistics compiled
in the building trades, decided in
crease in the use of permanent build
ing materials has been noted in
country districts and the building
of farm houses. The shortage of tim
Der accounts for this only in part,
since stone and brick and cement
are more expensive building mater
ials than lumber.
Farmers can now build farm
houses of non-burnable materials,
because good roads make it possible
for them to haul such materials
from a distance without prohibit
tive expense. The American farmer
is sensible, ard-headed, practical
man. He has not endured the great
est home fire hazards of any ma
ton for years because he knew no
better, but because he found it too
expensive to overcome the risk by
substituting for the easy-to-get tim
Der, the hard to-import stone, brick,
tile, cement.
With the avent of better roads,
and the coming of the automobile
truck, he is finding it increasingly
possible to erect his farm house of
fire-proof material without paying
too great price for haulage of
materials. He is also finding it good
business to erect more preten-
tious house on land which has in
creased materially in value through
the influence of better roads.
Better houses, better fireproofing,
better land values, better transpor-
tation, better profits on farm pro-
duce; they are all by-products of
the hard road, which, in the long
run, is not an expense to the tax
payer, but source of profit.

CARS CRASH AT UNION
AND CORYELL STREETS

A Ford sedan driven by Lester
Bigley crashed into an Overland
touring driven by Leroy Parent, both
of this city, at the corner Of Union
and Coryell streets late Wednesday
evening. The Ford suffered brok-
en- mudguard, lamps, and damages
to the radiator, while the Overland
had broken rear mud guard and
running board.
The Bigley Gear was coming down
Union street, and the Parent car
coming up, when an unknown driver
dashed westwardly on Coryell street
at high speed, causing both the
other cars to swerve from their
courses to avoid being hit.
None of the occupants of either
car was hurt, but a large crowd
soon collected, and Officer Morse in
vestigated the accident. Each car
was able to continue homeward after
some temporary repairs were made.

RETRIBUTIvE JUSTICE

Former Secretary of the Navy
Josephus Daniels having very bitter
ly assailed his successor for permit
ting the lease of the naval oil re-
serves, comes now a certain wit
ness and testifies that the reason
Mr.. Daniels opposed the lease of the
reserves was because he was inter
eSted that the private companies to
whom he had made leases right
near these reserves should not be
interfered with in their operation of
draining all the oil away from the
reserves. And so again is verified
the saying of the prophet: He that
taketh the stink-pot shall perish by
the -pot.-Iola (Kans.) Register.

OPEN SEASON ON

General Trains Guns on
Fiery Cross

1t looks like an open season on the
Ku Klux Khan. Since it became evil
dent that the former Khan stronghold
of Texas was lost to the hooded order,
following the Klux defeat in Okla
homa, politicians are more than anx-
ious to tell the world how bitterly
they oppose the Khan.
The only exception to the rule so
far is General Dawes, whose Augusta,
Maine, speech was a frank endorse
ment of the invisible wizards, despite
the efforts of republican party pub
licists to make it look like an attack.

Young Stays Away.
From Atlanta comes the story that
Glenn Young, the notorious Wilkinson
County raider, will not return to Her
rim to stand trial as ordered by the
judge. Young is supposed to be a
brave warrior but it looks as if he
is afraid to face the music.
His wife declares he will not return
to Herrin because of i'll health, re-
sulting from wounds received while
cleaning up" Williamson County. 1t
is reported he is on the payroll of the
Khan at national headquarters.
General Dawes, while on his way to
Chicago from Boston, solicited opin-
ions on the effect of his Khan speech.
He was disappointed because more
attention was not paid to his attack
on organized labor. The General will
speak in Lincoln, Nebr., Friday.
No authentic report of the discus
sion between Dawes and Coolidge at
the latters' home in Plymouth, VT,
was given out. 1t was stated that the
Khan issue was not discussed, tho
this report is not taken seriously.
