"OCT OK THE MCI)"
Two unheralded but none the l--8
significant ivenU transpired in Ohio
Comity last week. Tho first wad
aiioUiir ot the Fiscal Court's inane
ws.sii,iis ut which ;ia usual claims for
Ine-llk-leut road work under the
anhaic "hand ystm," at fancy
prices, weie allowtd, the only
rhunre of paying which was to bor
row nnri. money, thus increasing
the- county's already burdensome
and ricgal amount of indebtedness,
Tho other event was a meeting of a
number of representative citizens
from vatiMH i-aris of the county for
tl.c purpose of devising ways and
weai.H );' getting a ril and perma
U :it sy f :n of uooil runi'.:-:.
L'ml-r i lie pi oviM'ons of the act ol
the General Assembly of 1&20 ts
labil.bing a sy!rm of intr-v-rounty-.seat
r.j.iil?, On'o Comity is entitled
to fcjur project.-", tomlliig over one
liu'idrrtl miles and reaching every
eiciioii uf the con i;y. lint so Car
oniy a f;w miles of on:? ;roJ"ct have
been uiuli riakcu and none cum-,
plc.L !. Oilier sections of the state
arc r.'c.idug State and rVclerul
aid, hue Ohio County is passed by. J
Why? Simply because otner coun
liM aavo insure J local aid in tile
way of bond issues, special road
tuxivi, d". , wlnlo Onio lias done
prnetieally nothing. Ohio County
is in icht in tho neighborhood oi"
$1')(,0I0, This H many thousands
f dolla.'S above the limit allowed
by law and things ure getting no
belter. Lei that matter, Its cause
and Its remedy, lie. The all Import
ant question Is liow Is Ohio County
.to jiitll Itself out of the mud," J
ltep up with the other counties In
the matter of good roads? The
money now spent on roadworkiiig Is
In a great measure wasted antl the
timo is fast approchiug when even'
that haphazaid work will bo im
possible, for lack of funds. When
that conies it meaiu business chaos
and Industrial stagnation, for high
way communication of aonio passa
ble kind is the backbone of a com
munity's prosperity.
Tberex is a remedy for this dis
coui aging condition, however, if we
'will only adopt It. If this county
will furnish road Improvement
funds in respectable amounts, the
Staee. und Federal governments will
expend within our borders two dol
lars for euch dollar spent by us. In
addition, tho roads so lontructed will
tlon, tho roads so constructed will
be maintained without cost to the
county. Isn't thestatemout true,
which was made by a prominent
physician ut the meeting mentioned
above: "A man would be a fool
not to take advantage of a propose
tlon like that?"
Therefore only the method of
raising the local funds remains
Either an annual levy of 20 cents
on the hundred dollars of our as.
scssment to be expended within the
year levied In a haphazard manner
or tbe same levy used as a sinking
fund to cover the- Interest and pay
off a bond Issue is permitted. It Is
proposed to Issue $300,000 of bonds
payablo in one to thirty years, bear
ing 5 percent Interest, the proceeds
to be expended In cooperation with
'he State and Nation In building
ood roads here at borne, uuder'the
c traction and control of a bi-partisan
tonimsslou
of tacit an
to a vote ot the people. However COMIXO
a favorable vote" would result, we 3
believe, when It Is genrally under- 2
enough Into the Bute treasury In 5
stood that Ohio County nnw pays W
automobile and gasoline taxea to'
pay the annual Interest and payment I
on tho proposed 'bond Issue, yet we
have no roads to show for it. Let' C
get cms! Everybody else is. The 6
total of the county's outlay In taxee.
will not bo increased and as will
IB V VH1 m IMI UUi tia aa-i.o wa,
maintained highways to" show for
our enterprise. In addition the tatt
ing over of so much of the county's
road burden by the State would re
lease the more of Its regular revenue
for working the other roads of the
county. . It's a "two for one" propo
sition either way you go and always
in our favor. Wasn't the doctor
right? .
. Tlans for submitting the bond
proposition to the voters will be dis
cussed and perfected at a mass meet
ing at the Court House In Hartford
on Saturday afternoon, October' 14,
at 2 o'clcok. Let every lover of his
county, the bt.it county in the world,
be there, prepared to push-forward.

Red Cross Roll Call
Heard World Around
The Annual Roll Call of the Ameri
can Red Cross for registration of the
membership for 1923 will begin on
Armistice Day, November 11, and
close on Thanksgiving Day, November
SO. The ground work for this stu
pendous task ot re-enrolling the mem
bership throughout the world has been
laid In a plan for the first complete
and coinprehi'TisIve system of reglstra
tien of the Red Cross membership la
all lis S.300 active Chapters at home
and abroad.
An important feature of the round-the-world
Roll Call campaign will' be
n universal effort to re-enlist the serv
ice of. war-time Ilea cross workers n
the peace program by their partici
pation in the Roll Call. In this way
the vast army of volunteers will once
more affiliate with the work of the
Red Cross in its manifold phases. Co
operation also has been assured by
Government and private maritime In
terests in a deep-sea Roll Call .that
Is designed to reach every member
or potential member In every part of
the world who may be en 'voyage or
temporarily in any port.
Thousands of Chapters will adopt
the home canvass plan of enrollment
which originated In Pittsburgh, wherei
last year It resulted In a 'membership
increase of 00 per cent. All records
In this year's campaign will be kept
cn standard size cards to be filed by
each Chapter for future use.

Wear Clothes That

A man who dresses carelessly
is likely to create the impres
sion that he's careless about
other things as well.
Wear' clothe3 that you can
respect and that command
respect in others; good style,
fine all-wool fabrics, expert
tailoring. Such clothes cost
less because they wear longer'.
We have them; Hart Schaff
