BENEFIT OF GOOD HlfiHWAYS Market Roads Reach Majority of RtQ<fc>?lQg Areas and When Im proved Lend Values increase.

The faet that cities and larger towns are frequently taxed for bond Issuss to build highways outside of their ews limits Is sometimes made a Improved Road In th?

It la ?Ten unged that the expenditure should be made proportionate to the assessed valuation within the olty lim it*: If the promdi of highway bond (ssves wars distributed In thla way, their porpoee In many caaee would < ba defeated. The primary object of the eoaaty highway bond laaua Is to balld county market roads and not to improve city etreeta, although a high percentage of the aaaaaaed ralu atlon may be city pivpeity.

Arch Deacon, of the Diocoee of fleet Carolina, eibly depicted the "Call of the World upon the Christian Churches." With Illustrative mmgm and charts he showed by facts and figures the voluminous work that tke missionaries have before thstn in theee countries and of the many pleas coming from them supplleat ing the help of the Christian nations In the enlightenment of their people of word of Qod.

Most cities are essentially dependent upon the suri-ouudlng country for tbetr pros perlty and development. The itVi1' opment of suburban property for res idence purposes Is also dependent upon hlghwny conditions, and tt Is becoming evident yearly that whs* ever makes for an Increase In rural population must be encouraged.
