Frank AVeldon, secretary of that en terprise, spent Monday here and stat ed that, he found splendid encourage ! ment. “I found Judge W. F. Gheeslin, or -1 dinary of the county, one of the strong est enthusiasts on good roads I have rnet anywhere,” said Mr. Weldon. ‘‘He knows how to build a good road and is doing splendid work. McDuffie has many miles of excellent roads. This was one of the first counties In this section of Georgia to use gravel and sand with clay in road improvement. Under the late C. H. Ellington, who was ordinary for several years, Mc- Duffie made great headway in road improvement. There are gravel roads here which were built ten years ago, I am told, and they are still fine and they have cost very little to keep in repair. Papers Aid in Work. All three papers here, The Journal, The Progress and The Free Lance, favor good roads. Hon. Ira Farmer of The Progress, owns a large gravel deposit and he said he would give McDuffie county all the dirt it wants to put on Its roads. Col. J. H. White, the veteran editor of The Journal, has been a consistent and earnest advocate of good roads for many years. Auto Ownors. Thomson has a number of auto own ers, among them being: Capt. John L.
