I GOOD ROADS COMING ^^^londay's Good Roads Meeting was I ^Swittended, when the weather and of heating facilities at the K^^lbge are taxen into consideration. "There was much enthusiasm h spite of feet and hands that ached irith the cold. But, more important Ipian enthusiasm was the determination of every man present that Chesterfield County shall have good roads. ^Ehe meeting was called by Hon. G. K. ^tney, County Supervisor Knight and ^Hssrs J. Clifton Rivers and G. W. ^^tner, members of the House of ^^Bresentatives. These gentlemen of ^^^fcclegation wished for an expres^tHfrom their constituents of their |^^tnents in regard to good roads ^^^trtion at the coming session of ^^^teneral Assembly.

UNREST IN GERMANY Simonds, who has written niuch and so interestingly of the ^Btr with Germany from its very be^Bining, has made an important recently as to the unrest ^^H^^Btisl'action prevailing in GerH^^Whe various factions in that becoming not unlike the ^Bction^^i Mexico, though not of Bourse so demonstrative. Mr. Simonds thinks it would be a sad mistake for I the Allies to cause the fall of the EbBrfc government now in control of lermany, as that would bring back Bhc old gang, not the Kaiser, perhaps, But the Kaiser's followers. W Mr. Simonds intimates that the deI lay of the United States Senate to I ratify the peace treaty has much to do with the unsatisfactory conditions in Germany. He also blames the Al flies for not adopting a consistent policy. On this point he says: Following the armistice a swift restoration of peace would have found the Germans still in the surLrender mood, ready to meet most if I not all of our conditions. But that mood has passed, the iron is no longer hot. Little by little hope is reviving that the great costs may be easB?<1, more and more ^he saner elements are being cornered and the old eleIment which claims efficiency as its di-| Ivine gift is making headway.

I As to the lines of action pursued B>y the All ies, Mr. Simonds says: [ It is time to stop adding to the r list of things Germany must do and begin compelling her to perform 4?ome of the tasks already allotted. Above all it is time to abandon a tcourse" which plays directly into the , k>n,la ........ ..l..~w...o. f'.?

IV3 IRELAND IS PROSPEROUS A new note is sounded as to the conditions in Ireland. That that country was oppressed and down trodden under the iron heel of England has been proclaimed long and louilly. Hut Mr. S. S. McCluro, the New York publisher-owner of Met'lure's Magazine and other publications has : just returned froj?> u long vis;? ui = Ireland and he tells an entirely different story. He calls Ireland a paradise ami makes in proof of his contention this cheerful and illuminating statement: ''Ireland is the most prosperous, _ < nfortable and law-abiding country .11 the world. The people are well li eased and well housed. One has to read outside papers to learn of tr.,u-i ale and unsettled conditions there. "I found that Irish banks have de- j posits of more; than 1 oo.oon.noo pounds and have been forced to form alliances with English hanks in order to lind an outlet for their money. There are 5,000,000 head of cattle in Ireland, or half as many as in ('ana- 1 da. Ireland has exported as much ^ fo >d to England since 1013 as eith-i j er the United States or the Argentina i fi republic."

Mr. Gompers said: "America's workers stand ready in the new year as in the past to do i their full duty as American citizens, j We have always placed our obliga- J tions as citizens above all else. As citizens we are true to the American I ideal of equal opportunity for all. "In the past we have found it nec- ! essary to fight for that ideal against ' agencies that sought to establish special priviledge. Those fights have not , been in defense of class advantages, a but to assure to wage earners the Ji rights and opportunities that all 1 should possess. Our struggles may ' jt have brought discomfort to others, j (I but they prevented a greater evil?de- l terioration of the virility of a part of J the nation. J "The great struggle of labor in ji the past has been to ar-sure to work- jj ers in their industrial relations the ' t rights of free citizens. We have! , fought to give the ideals of Americans ' dominating influence in shops and j factories. I "Our militant struggle has won f general recognition for our demands, j hut our work is not at all militant. I We are in a position to contribute to j the improvement of production pro- J * illMI "The immediate problem of the | world is to develop a production organisation that will benefit directly those who are the real producers and will also serve the needs of starving nations. When assured of just deal- 1 ings America's workers are able to co..opcrate in freeing production j from the preventing grasp of speculators and influences that manipulate industry to enrich a few who gain unair advantage, thus preventing produe ion. "This is a b'g job, but it is. essential I- i well grounded development in the \ ars to eo m . It. is essential to that ideal which is America?equal oppui'l unity for all. America's workers will do their full share in working out our country's problems. "11 : iI to the new year 11*20! May d bring f'r <iom, glory and happiness to all our people!" A TIGHT SHOE PINCHES Some men buy motor trucks like some women select shoes?too small for their needs. Experience in the use of trucks reveals the fact that ninety-nine out of a hundred buyers of trucks come back for a bigger truck within six months ?with a second-hand truck to trade in. ? It should be borne in mind that a; tremendous increase in hauling fol-i lows the purchase of a truck. Old business expands and new business J develops with astonishing rapidity. Motor trucks should be bought with this expansion and this development of hauling in mind, otherwise it is just as costly as buying a tight fitting suit of clothes for a fast growing boy. When you invest your money in a truck be sure to get a size which will take care of your future needs. The manufacturers of the Indiana Farm Truck guarantee a truck that fits all farming requirements in capacity, equipment and construction. It will surprise you to learn of the many uses this Indiana Farm Truck with its power unit attachments, will do around a farm. It will perform the work of a half dozen farm hands cheaper and quicker, or any work that a gasoline engine, or any piece , of belt-driven machinery, can do. Before choosing a truck of any ii wwuhi in* ntivisnuii' iu cuuiiiiunicate with the Carolina Motor Company, of Statesville, N.
