PROGRAM FOR ROAD
 BUILDING SOUGHT
Supporters Of Movement Plan
 Appeal at Public Meeting
STRESS NEED OF SCHEDULE
Church Notices No Tabs Series Game Today-Votcrs Made Today

The question of a definite roads program in the town budget for 1927 will doubtlessly come to the fore at the annual open meeting of the finance board Monday evening when the public listens to the comparisons of last years budget and the pro- posed budget for the coming year.
 Last year Miss Adele Murray was staunch supporter of the policy of roads program to prevent hap hazard repairing on the roads about town and her battle with First Se- lectman George B. Carter at the last open meeting of the finance board, was one of the high-lights of the political year. The policy was not adopted however, and in all proba- bility the old question will be flung at the present finance board Mon- day night when the budgets are read.
 It is generally thought that the innovation of the policy would be of benefit to the town and do away with the alleged "haphazard" work that is now being done on the roads, and in particular, the back roads, but it is reported that it will be a long hard fight before the selectmen of the town adopt the plan. Their arguments against the program are not clear with the exception that they state that the present method of repairing roads is satisfactory. Sup porters of the movement point out that, with few exceptions. there is hardly q road in the community that is In what might be termed good condition and 1t Is thought that the new proposition would be a big aid in securing decent roads for Berlin.
 At last years meeting First Se- lectman George B. Carter and Miss Murray engaged in a verbal battle across the auditorium of the town hall. Miss Murray finally silencing the sclectman with several well plac- cd shots that could not be answered by the official. Whether Miss Mur- ray. who has recently returned from New Haven hospital, will be able to carry on the fight Monday night is not known, but the interests in favor of the proposed motion wilt not let the question pass although they have already suffered defeat at the hands of the opposition.
 Aside from the roads question, which has always been a sore spot on the budget page, Mondays meet ing should be a quiet one, as the other departments of the towns ac- count have kept we'll within their quota and will probably ask for no great increase In appropriation.

Fire At lslidden's Grocery

Last Friday night the Glidden
grocery in upper Malta was discov~
cred to be on fire. 1t was first seen
by Mrs. Chester Smith who lives not
far from the store. She gave the
alarm, and soon the fire department
was on the scene and the flames
were under control. The fire was
discovered about midnight, and how
it started is not knownk since the
store had been closed about s
O'Clock in the evening. There is
supposition that someone must have
entered the place and perhaps
thrown a lighted match or cigar
stub in a basket of rubbish, since
there was where the fire evidently
started. The loss, which is covered
by insurance, will reach several
hundred dollars. Tobacco, cigars,
candy, cereals and extracts were de-
stroyed. The building is of wood,
and had the fire gotten few min
utes more of start it doubtless
could not have been saved.

AN APPEAL TO THE DEMOCRAT
WOMEN VOTERS OF
MORGAN COUNTY

Next Tuesday, Nov 2, we viii
again be given an opportunity of go
ing to polls and exercising oul
rights as voter and citizen. Won
en- as class stand for purity, hon.
esty and economy All three are EN-.
bodied in Donahey's administration
cost him $218, while Myers Y
Cooper, his Republican opponent
admits he spent $6S,000 to secure
gubernatorial nomination. Need
we compare these figures and ask
why? Men may be able to buy a
nomination and may be able to buy
an office. But they cannot buy
Vic Donahey.
Ohio must make choice this
year between former Senator Atlee
Pomerene, who as attorney for the
government prosecuted Newberry,
Daugherty, DENLY and Falls, and
Senator Willis who testified for and
defended these men. All other
states have repudiated the men con-
nected with these scandals, and all
have their eye on Ohio. Shall we
return to senate a man who has
placed a stain upon fair name of our
state? Women voters let us inde-
fatigably, decidedly, say no.
1t is unthinkable that the fair
minded people of Ohio would do
anything other than elect Pomerene
and Donahey, and give Donahey a
legislative body who will cooper
ate with him in doing the things
that need to be done for the best in
terest of Ohio and her people. This
year it is vitally important that
Democrat women shoulder their re-
sponsibilities, work valiantly with
our men to help elect both state and
county ticket.
Let us not remain at home from
polls from a false sense of modesty.
We must either prove ourselves
progressive, fair minded citizens,
or a Stacker. Which class shall we
join? = DEMOCRATIC WOMAN'S
ORGANIZATION.

Auto Wreck

Sunday evening about 7 O'Clock,
as Mr.. and Mrs. Homer Gorrell and
the formers mother Mrs. Fanny
Gorrell of GAINESVILLE, were on their
way home, in their Chevrolet coupe,
after having been visiting here with
Mr.. and Mrs. Maurice Archer, they
were side-swiped by a car, and one
wheel, Tenders, and running board
were torn off, and the car thrown
into the ditch at the side of the
road. None of the occupants of
the car were injured. The other
car was not damaged. The night
was dark and rainy, and very dan
gerous to drive in. The accident
occurred near the DR.. Barker place
The same evening and about the
same time, Mr. w. I. Thompson and
wife of Buck Run, who were re-
turning home from GAINESVILLE, had
collision here on the approach
of this end of the bridge. Neith-
er Mr.. Thompson nor his wife was
injured, other than some bruises,
but the auto which was a Chevrolet
touring was quite badly dana ged.
Mr.. Rad Hickerson took them to
their home. The other car, name
of whose driver we did not learn,
was not damaged much.

Narrow Escape In Auto Wreck

Last Saturday about noon as Mrs.
Evelyn True Button and daughter
Miss Helen Button were on their
way to Glouster, they had bad
wreck between Ringgold and Bish-
opville. Miss Button was driving,
and the machine had shown no
signs of skidding, when of a sudden
it shot across the road, up onto a
bank and upsetting turned over on
its side, and on over, so at the time
it came to a standstill, it was rest
ing on the top, with the wheels in
the air. Before the car had time to
settle, Mrs. Button and daughter
managed to open the doors, and get
out. Outside of some slight bruises,
neither was hurt.
When the Abel wrecking crew
from this place went out after the
car, they discovered near it a good
sized box turtle, all bloody, and
the opinion is that the accident was
due to the car striking the turtle,
causing the machine to skid and
swerve from the road. The car
which is an Overland sedan, was
very badly damaged.
