CHICAGO
By J. V. Snipes
We now leave Roanoke, Va., our
next stop off is at the Natural Bridge
in Va., where we reaUy see one of
the seven wonders of the world. They
claim it is 300 feet from 'the little
ravine, which is called Cedar Creek,
up to the arch of the bridge, which
is rock all the way, then the earth
is aho'ut as high on top of that, over
which the public road runs with trees
on either side. If one passed here at
night they would not realize they
were crossing on a bridge. In look
ing over the edge from the top the
large trees look like small shrubs so
far down at the bottom. Arother
curiosity is just above the bridge on
the hill side where a stream of water
gushes out, runs a few feet and then
goes back in a hole; it is called the
Lost River and runs continually, but
no one knows where to.
We now take No. 4, the fastest
train the Norfolk and Western op
erates, and continue our trip to the
West. We have pased through the
Blue Ridge Mountains, although our
way has be^ considerably hilly. We
see in the distance the great Alle
ghany Mountains, compared with
which the Blue Ridge are only baby
mountains. As we are just entering
the border of West Virginia, we peep
ahead as the engine is winding around
curves and we see a solid mass of
mountain, seemingly a mile high and
we wonder how we will ever get thru
but the engine is on the job and fol
lows up a ravine all the way. For
miles we follow a little river on first
one side and then across. The moun
tain side is most straight up over
us and if a rock should fall from the
top it would smash us. We were
told that they keep men to walk
track in wet spells as sometimes a
land slide comes down onto the track.
As we pass on any signs of farm
ing ceases entirely, occasionally we
pass a small cabin on the side of the
mountain with the back side of the
house on the ground and space
enough under the front porch to ride
horseback. Possibly there is to be
seen a half acre of corn above the
house on the side of the mountain so
steep one could pitch the corn down
the chimney. What a lonely country
to live in, possibly ten miles to the
next neighbor, who would be fixed
about the same way. We pass a
small station occasionally until we
come to Bluefield, West Va., which
is crowded in between two mountain
sides, and here we stop over night
and next pass through the great coal
fields of W. Va.

DODGING THE JURY
Another reason why justice seems
so often to miscarry in the courts of
this country is the practice of many
good and useful citizens of dodging
jury duty. Men of the type we need
on our juries can easily make far
more money at their business than
the state is able to pay for the same
length of time served on a jury. As
a result too many who are unfit to
sit in judgment get on our juries be
cause men of better judgment refuse
to serve. So we have unpopular ver
dicts in many instances. Don't dodge
jury,duty. Serving when it is at all
possible for you to do so is as much a
duty as paying your taxes and doing
what yoli can to protect the health
of the community. You owe it to the
state, the country you live in and to
Knollwood

An Orchard Site
A Winter Home Site
