THE GOOD OLD WAY. Wliy It In of 1,title line In Modern Rond flnlldlnsr. The Columbus (O.l Journal recently reprinted from Its Issue of Aug. 7. 1823, ibis paragraph: Many gentlemen of tills vicinity, feeling the Importance of Improving the roml be tween Columbus and Qrnnvllle. are now engaged In circulating subscription papers for labor upon tho road, In conjunction with ihe citizens of Licking county, on the | llrsl Friday and Saturday In October next. It Is hoped there will he a general turning out for the accomplishment of an object so long pursued. Tills was eighty-two years ago. And though every brunch of science, indus try and business lias made almost miraculous advances in that time, the majority of farmers are still working the roads In tills "good old way," says Good lloads Magazine. The barn raising, the quilting party, the husking bee, have been relegated to mythology by scientific economy. Why should tills other relic of ploiieur- Ism alone remainV There is poetry about the old time customs, hut there Is more of music lu tiie telephone hell than ill the wolf’s howl, more of happiness In the hum of the tlirnsher than I11 the pounding of the flail, and more of profit in howling over a hard roml thnu In racking and creaking and moping through tire deep mud. For their own best Interest the farm ers should he up to date In road build ing. flood Hnnd Mulrni, A good road affords an excellent way to church. A dollar spent on the road Is ns good ns two spent on the farm, A community is known by the roads It keeps. Better go two miles on a good rond than half a mile on u had one. The wide tire niaketh tiie glad path muster. The country road frlghteneth the auto. A hogged down nuto will not go that way nguln. A bad roml and Its travel are soon parted. Many path masters spoil the roads. A little gravel is a dangerous tiling. Sow deep or wallow fall and spring, The horse knowetli the had road and lettetli his ears drop. Many country romls are paved—with good Intentions, but for tho most part witii lumps of sod, stones, roots and rubbish. The wide tire fulfilleth the Beriptures —It mnketh the rough places smooth. The nuto Is sowing tho seeds of a healthy discontent nt the condition of hundreds of country roads. It is nlwn.vs safer passing on a good wide road.—Buffalo News. Milltown. Mrs. J. E.
