Permanent roads are a good investment —not an expense The High Cost of Postponing Permanent Highway Building Poor motor roads stifle industry and agricul ture, waste huge sums annually in high mainte nance costs, and greatly increase gasoline, tire and repair bills. There is not a community that isn’t paying a heavy price for having too few permanent roads. * Many sections of the country—even whole states—are trying to operate twentieth century traffic over nineteenth century roads. Even what we often call the more progressive communities are far behind the demands of modern highway traffic with its 18,000,000 motor vehicles. From the Atlantic to the Pacific, and from Canada to Mexico, we need more Concrete roads—the roads for twentieth century traffic. Your highway officials want to be of the greatest possible service to you. They know we need more Concrete roads—the roads for twen tieth century traffic. Get behind them with ways and means that will provide these roads and streets. Such an investment will pay you big dividends year after year.

One of the People-Sentinel subscri bers was a caller at this office Sat urday and in conversation with the editor he remarked: “I read your an nouncement last week m which-you said ihat The People-Se/ltinel will be still further improved September 1st. I don’t see how you are going to do that, as it is good enough already.” This paper thanks it* young friend for the high compliment but no paper is so good that it cannot be improved. Like everything else, a newspaper can’t stand still—jt must go forward or backwardend The People-Sentinel intends to go forward. The editor is not content that the paper shall be “as good as TShy in this section”—he wants it to be known as the best, and to that s end he invites the coopera tion of*every reader.

IN MEMORIAM Springfield Items x x X ■am t THE SOUTHERN SERVES THE SOUTH ie South grows the Southern must Freight traffic on the Southern Rail way System has nearly doubled in ten years. With the Squth growing at its pres-, ent rate, traffic a. few years hence will be double what it now is. Many millions of dollars of new capital will have to be found for increasing thecapacity of tracks, yards, terminals and shops, and the purchase of cars and engines. * • • This needed new capital will be at tracted to the Southern if the profits from its operation are maintained at a level to establish a broad market for its securities. SOUT RAILWAY SYSTEM The death angel entered our home ope month ago today rind • took from us our‘ dear son and brother, Floyd Creech, whose vacant chair can.nevfcr be filled again.' Floyd was just in the prime of his 1 manhood, being only 18 years of age. I He was ill just one week and it was ( not thought by his family and friends ( that he was seriously sick. In spite of ^11 that loving hands and skilled physicians could do, the Grim Reaper would not be denied. Funera* services were conducted at the Olar Baptist Church August 7, 1926, the Rev. D. W. Heckle,, of Healing Springs, offi ciating, and the body was laid to rest in'the adjoining churchyard. Those acting as pall-bearers were his three brothers-in-law, S. L. Price, Joe E. Meyer and Leon C. Cave, and his three cousins, B. B..Cave, James Bennett and Tom Broadwater. Floyd is survived by his parents,- Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Creech, six bro thers, Cecil Creech, Preston Creech, Wilbur Creech, Benjamin Joseph Creech and Raymond Creech; four sisters, Mrs. L. C. Cave, of Aiken, Mrs. J. E. Meyers, Mrs.* S L. Price and Pauline Creech, all of Augusta. The bereaved family will find coiv solatipn in the thought that his death was not the end but merely the tran sition from this life to a move glor ious one with his Father above. . The many floral designs' that cover- fed his earthly resting place* were fit ting testimonials of the love and es teem, ip which Floyd was held, by those who had the privilege of know ing him.
