Good Roads Address

Last Friday afternoon Mr.. l.. A.
James. assistant treasurer of the
Ohio Good Roads Federation, ad-
dressed a representative gathering
of citizens in the court room. Mr..
James address was a good, practi-
cal one, and should have been
Hheard by every good roads man" In
the county. He entered into a
somewhat lengthy discussion OF the
benefits of good roads to a communi-
ty in general He made 1t plain
that good roads do not come to the
citizens or residents of commune
/ ty. who do nothing that when we
| learn of counties and localities hav-
| ing good roads, it has meant work
and push of the citizens of that COM
munity, and not only this, but CO.
operation. NJ Many communities
would be out of the mud today, but
( for the lack of cooperation. This
cooperation can come about in no
better way than through an crgani-
Zation like the automobile associa-
| ton, such as an effort is being made
to organize here With such a club
taking the road problems to the
state highway department, progress
is accomplished. He recommended
a we'll organized system of roads
planned, and for the cooperation of
all, to accomplish that end. The
automobile association should work
with the county commissioners and
township trustees Of the county, AID
with the united efforts can have
much weight with the~state. The
completion of the state system is,
the speaker declared, of vital i'm
portance to the people here.
In order to get the automobile
club properly going, Mr.. James rec
commended a paid secretary man
who could give his time and atten-
ton to the work. He spoke of the
Good Roads Federation of the
state, which was started Is years
ago, and of the great good it has ac-
complished This organization is
ready and willing to cooperate with
the auto club here to assist in good
roads matters. Speaking of local
matters of Morgan county. the
speaker said he deemed as the first
consideration, the closing up Of the
gaps, so we can get somewhere the
year round The Green bill, passed
by the last legislature, the speaker
said, made 1t possible for the state
to assist with township roads. Ht
brought out that there are $4,000.
900 autos in the United States al
present, many of which are used fol
trans-continental trips. These tour
lists passing through community
are always impressed with the gen
eral air Of progress of that com
munity; they catch that enthusiasm
take it back with them, and it help!
that community.
Mr.. James believes that politics
both locally and in the state de
partment has played large part IL
the hindrance of good roads.
continuous program should b'
adopted, and carried out regardless
of the changes made in the Offices
having charge of the roads. He alst
favors highway police, not only tt
guard against abuse of the roads il
various ways, but as protection
especially in many communities
against hold ups after dark.
AS general summary the speak
er emphasized that we need an aut,
Organization to cooperate with tn
county and state; road program
for the county and state; thorough
cooperation with local and stat
officers.

Thankoffering Service Very Fine

The "Thankoffering" service held
at the M. P. church Sunday evening
by the WIZ NJ. S., was one of the
best and most impressive they have
ever had. The children of the Sun
shine Circle" assisted by Miss
Gladys Wilson in their part of the
program Gratitude Tree" told, on
comparing their blessings with
those of children of other lands,
how they soon found a gratitude
tree. Each child brought in her
thankoffering and at the close of the
services when their thankful"
boxes were opened they were very
proud of the amount they had set
aside, in the short time they had
been organized, to send the gospel
to these children.
Mrs. Drake gave an excellent
reading telling how Miss Martin was
awakened to the need of missions,
and her conservation to the service
Light and Thanks" still carrying
out the theme of the evening. Mrs.
Mellor, representing America, and
Miss Gatewood Thankoffering, car
rying lighted candles, and Mrs.
Adrian, Misses Hazel Johnson, Wa
va Mendel, Thomasine Savage on the
opposite side, dressed in black with
wells over their faces, representing
the unenlightened nations, with un-
lighted candles, marched down the
aisles to the platform while the
choir. sang as professional Holy,
Holy, Holy. AS the thought of the
pageant unfolded the unlighted can
dies were lighted, and the wells
thrown back Mrs. Adrian and Miss
Savage sang very pleasingly as a
duet Love Lifted Me-" and the
choir carried out each thought in
song.
The auditorium was well filled
and the Thankoffering given at the
close of the pageant helped to make
this banner year for missionary
work in the M. P. church.-Xx.

of his time. When Fred Ham first

the boom, and he did big business,
but owing to the coal miners trou-
bles which it seemed could not be
settled, the place so far as business
goes, became very dull.
Mr.. Ham will occupy the resi-
denoe property at the end of the
bridge, adjoining the business
rooms, which was the residence OF
his grandfather, the late G. q. Dick
erson. He came to Malta last Satur-
day. Until their household goods
arrive, his wife and their four chill
dren will visit with Mrs. Hams
people at Marietta.
