Having purchased some seventy

added. This will make approximately
3,000 miles of public highways to be
kept up with as ever increasing

The county now has approximately
920,000 of road funds with which to

roughly $20 per mile. The wonder is

In view of the President's procla

would be necessary for him to is

Only recently the State highway en
gineer of New York declared that the
state should abandon the building of
3naeadam roads and in place of them
jmonld construct concrete highways.
He stated that it cost $12,000 per
tulle to construct the macadam roads
and $1,000 per mile to maintain them
and they were worn out in ten years.
The Kind of Which he Has Ever
Heard of Has Received Much
Attention.
"One of the best suggestions I have
heard for the improvement of the so
cial life of Maury County and the de
velopment of a stronger community
spirit is the proposed County and
Town House," said W. C. Headrick,
extension secretary of the Southern
Sociological Congress, who is in Co
lumbia preparatory to the conference
commencing next Friday.
"This idea is original with a citizen
of Columbia, Hon. John W. Fry. Mr.
Fry's plan, as I understand it is to
have a combined club and office build
ing", conveniently located in Columbia,
where community, county and . civic
gatherings of various kinds may be
held and where the spirit of democ
racy and the get-together spirit will
prevail. City and county offices with
which the people as a whole are most
intimately associated, could be placed
here. For instance, the superinten
dent of schools, health officer, county
farm demonstrator, probation officers'
and Juvenile court judge's office, and,
when Columbia shall have established
them, the Associated Charities, Public
Employment Bureau, free clinic, etc.
"Social settlement houses and com
munity centers have been established
in many cities throughout the country

Col. Fry's plan, but nowhere as far
as I know, has such an admirable
scheme as ,Col. Fry's been put into
effect The public library feature espe
cially will be of gret benefit to this

ence of the Sociological Congress,!
hope that the plan will receive due
attention and steps taken- which will
result in the adoption of the plan in
Columbia.
