NEW YORK, Nov 3-Castins about for a new manager of the BoJton Braves. it was understood today that owners Of the club had reached a decision it will be bet ter to engage a young leader, pef- haps one with playing a3 well as a good managing future, in preferences to hiring veteran like Iris Speaker.
 It seems fairly well established that Speaker. while undar con sideration for some time, has been dropped from the list of possible successors to Dave Ban croft at the Boston helm. Color was given to the story of Speak CTS possible engagement by tho act that Iris always has had T big following in Boston. where Ee played with the Red Sox for years. but Emil F. Fuchs, Prasi- dent of the Braves, is understood to have reached the conclusion hat Speakers future. especially IS player, is mostly behind him.
 Even though the Braves desired Speaker. thorc is the waiver ob- stacle which might prevent him from leaving tho American League. Clark Griffith, Washing ton president, has not asked for waivers on tho veteran, nor has he been approached. he says, on 2 deal for the outfielder's serv- ices. in spite of discussion that he would go to Cleveland is not to Boston
 Meanwhile "Hot Stove League" observers continue their sugges- tions for the consideration of Boston's owners. The mention of possibilities not only has includ- ed Speaker and Eddie Collins, SD far. in spite of denials, but also added the names of Casey Sten- gel .ex-maior leaguer. who piloted Toledo to victory in the little worlds series, and Bert Niehoff. manager of the Atlanta Club of the Southern Association.

MILLIONS FOR ROADS.

After roads, airports; but
first = roads. This seems to be
Americas slogan just now. 1t
is interesting to note what some
of the states are spending and
planning to spend to make it
easier for the motorist to get
from one place to another. From
sources of authority we learn
that:
Illinois has a budget of $36,
100000 for primary roads and
I$70,000,000 for it's entire road
system; 1866 miles of complet-
ed hard roads and 1947 miles of
GRADING.
Kansas since 1921 has spent
the sum of $12,000,000 for
bridges alone. The county roads
generally, tho not all graded to
standard, are wide and we'll
kept, and are in good condition
during dry weather.
Maryland has the distinction
of being the first state to have
it's system placed under state
control for both construction
and maintenance. This system
was started back in the year of
1908.
New jerseys people will pre-
sent to the next Legislature a
program of improvements tc
cover approximately 1900 miles
extending over period OF
twelve years at a cost of $50

Virginia will spend nearly
$10,000,0O0 for good roads this

on main highways, and two
tenths for feeder roads.

IT'S BENEFITS UNIVERSAL.


Many people have not learned
to look upon advertising in the
light of the realistic rhymester
of an olden time who penned
this famous verse on advertis-
ing:
Go forth in haste; with bills
and paste
Proclaim. to all creation,
That men are wise who adver-
tise
In every generation.
In large part the public re-
CARDS advertising as being of
possible advantage to the adver
tiser for which the consumer
pays, and yet the facts prove
otherwise. Time and again has
it been shown that we'll judged
properly conducted and persist
ent advertising inures to the
benefit not only of the person
WHO attracts attention to his
wares in this manner, but also
of the community.
After interviewing large mum
bers of distributors as to the
economic effects of advertising
a committee of the national dis
tribution conference reports !:
Broadly speaking, it would
seem that where the advertis-
ing creates an increased de-
mand for products of a certain
class, wider distribution of
such products--in other words,
makes new business, bringing
about lessened distribution
costs and lessened production
costs owing to increased de-
mand--there can be no doubt as
to the value of such advertising,
not merely to the concerns that
pay for it but also to the public
that consumes the goods"
Bills and paste" have given
way to newspapers and maya
zines and those "who advertise"
are not only wise but altruistic
and philanthropic, for by help
ing themselves they are helping
others.

PRATER LOCALS.

Dear Edltor:- have read anC
reread the local news of Hays
appearing in the Herald of July
14th. 1927.with which some
party at Haysi seems to be Of
Tended, as appears in the issue
of July Fl, 1927.
Referring to the Haysi locals
Of July 14th. 1927, win say that
I do not find any obiection to
them as they come from a party
who seem to believe in a he'll
and a God, and that they do not
desire to deceive the preacher,
If it is true that people flock to
hear a new preacher, and refuse
to hear the old true, tried and
loyal preacher of old, who sticks
to the Bible and the Doctrine OF
the Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ, it does show some signs
of hypocrisy. If nothing else, it
looks as though they are deciev-
ing the preacher by making him
believe that they are God low
ing, God fearing, God worship
ing and Church going people.
AS to the primary teacher, we
know nothing about. but sup
pose the patrons of the Haysi
school knows whether the writ
er told the truth or not, and if
he, or she, did not it is the
worst to him, or herself.
The "key note" was sounded
when the writer asserted that
the voters of Haysi had made
up their minds to elect a J. P.
this coming fall who believes
there is a hell and a God. We
congratulate the Haysi voters
on their resolutions. "Of all the
creatures that inhabit highland,
marsh or dell, the most Goddess
is the creature that believes
there is no hell"
The man who breaches. teach
ues, advocates and argues there
is no hell or God is a proselyte,
who compasses both land and
sea to make an individual two
fold more the child of hell than
they are themselves. So / hope
the good citizens of Haysi are
too well versed in the Bible to
be so deceived.
The person who does not be-
live there is hell or God is an
individual who does not regard
anything they do as evil. Oaths
to them are not binding because
they have no God to call upon
to help them tell the truth. AS
sault, murder, ROBBERY or arson
are no sin to them, because they
have no God to account to or
future punishment to fear. If
they can escape the penal laws
of the land they will do any
thing.
l am glad we have good
Christian Judge who knows
there is hell and a God who
also, believes in future reward
and punishment, one who loves
and serves God, and is a vel
wisher to religion and Christ.
