Farmer Wants
Snow Removal.

A Lancaster farmer VINO Is sore
asks the Herald to agitate Tor snow
removal on winter roads. He says he
ia no good roads booster, but ne
would like to have us shoot 1t INTO
the good roads boosters in Lancaster
who wage battles for good roads dur
ing the summer and sit around the
fire in the winter while better men
than they are dig doctors and other
travellers out of drifts SO they may
proceed on necessary missions.
The Herald is not going to shoot
ii into" anybody. That does no good.
But we do want to see some enort
made toward opening winter roads
and we will keep on agitating.
If nothing else can be done some OF
the money spent profusely and per-
hans unnecessarily in the summer
could be saved for winter work. Al
least the main roads through the
county could be kept reasonably open.
Our farmer friend has been climbing
ont in all kinds OF weather to do work
properly the province of the county.
His point is we'll taken.

Woodrow Wilson.
Admirers or not the American peo-
pie will regret the passing OF Wood
row Wilson. He was certainly q
great man who gave himself freely
in the most trying period this coun-
try has experienced in years. 50
another victim has been offered on
the presidential altar the fact being
that we expect too much OF our chlel
executives and work them to death.
No one but a born fool who dldn |
care could stand the pressure OF the
office and We haven't got around 10
electing that class of people TO the
highest office in the land.
At one time a demi-god in the eyes
of the world Mr. Wilson fell in the
reaction following the World war ana
with the rest of the big four" went
into Oblivion.
Still Wilson triumphant or wilson
raiacted does not change Wilson the
man Too mucn is expected IN one
case and too little honor given in the
other. s,4
No real progressive can ever forget
the beautiful idealism OF wilson
words when he made his first accept

those uplands where the sweet airs OIL
freedom blow" How wonderful that
sinoile And how it epitomizes VIII
son the man.
