ROADS OF THE COUNTY IN TERRIBLE CONDITION Automobile traffic has practically been suspended over Hertford Coun ty roads for some time?only the brave and hardy Atempt to plow th rough the mud, piled high and deep upon the roads.

His Honor did nut, however, state that 'he was an sdvccate of fho measure. According to all logic, Judge Allen says the ex-service man must b? sat isfied*; he believes there is no doubt about Hie final passage of a bill that will recompense the average man who served ljjp country in the late war. Tfii jurist explained his reason for believing Congress will enact bonus legislation by pointing to the fellows, of the country and of moderate me an* in general, who are frank enough t9 .admit that the "next draft" wfll never get 'them unless his majesty, Uncle Sam, recognizes the worth- of their services in the late war; when many of the young men left lucrative positions to enter the millitary ser vice. Returning after the war, these same soldiers who had been living the I life of a combatant in war times' found their elder neighbors hsd clean ed up financially and were in much fcc^Mr *b"n>e th*n_be??re tjm _ wgr period?they had thrived while the service man had run the gamut of a bloody war upon the meagre salary of a soldier or sailor. Judge Allen remarked that you could never ex plain away ? the reasons for giving something to those men. Future pro tection depends upon their attitude towards the Government; and that attitude will not be one of further sacrifice, until they have received re cognition of their former services to the Government 0 < MENOLA NEWS On Wednesday afternoon of last week Mrs. H.
