We have been advocating" good roads at various times in this paper, and we believe that no one thing can bring up a com munity more than good roads. People do .not like to settle in a section where the roads are bad, and won't live in a community with bad roads. In bad weather s they are cut off from the outside ; "world. In our loved ones are sick and we live in a community . where the roads are bad, it is . - long time before we can get a ' .. doctor and sometimes when the : doctor arrives, it is too late, be- ; "cause the roads were so rough he could not get there in time. (All the doctors in the county use automobiles entirely now.) Some sections of the county have good roads, viz., Warrenton, Hawtree, River, Jsdkins, and the Pinnell-Limer-Burrougrrs- Fuller, and Ay cock section. These gen tlemea have built and soiled a " fine road themselves which is a credit to this prosperous section. . "Now if we cut the shade from the road and use the road drag after each rain the road after awhile wiil get high in the- mid dle and shed water and will be passable all of the winter. Another wide awake com- f inanity is the Churchill section. They have fine roads all of the year and these roads are dragged . after each r? in by the prosper ous citizens in. this section, ihrnr rnnrjo. nra ovwl anrl karri and j all the year.
