heard and read much about good roads and no new roads are being built nor are the old ones being much improved This is not in keeping with the instruc tion of the Good Book which says it is best to be doers instead of hears altogether Have we had too much said on this subject of good roads Hardly that It might be said what has een done has not been done in the n- othjlingand eSt men as delegates to them but the common people have not yet been interested in the road question these road meetings have been too far away and too high above the people who are to build them and ought to be inter ester in them Building goodroads inus be about the line pursued by Ne her ah in building the walds of Jeru sale i The people must be interested in tie workmust have a mind to wor Just at this season of the year of r uddy roads the work seems ur gen It Is for the people to Say let us rise up and build if we are to have goo roads Such a determination on the part of the people willstrenghen the hands for the work The work in b ilding the walls of Jerusalam was divided No better division in the wor of building good roads can be mad than for each man to be inter este in the work over against his Own house his own farm This must be efore we have good roads In all publ c improvements from which equal bene fits come to all certain duties and obligations rest upon every man Shar rig alike the advantages of good r aevery individual ought to be willing to bear the burdens required to Secure them in proportion to the ad want ipes received this is just Noth ing 36 hinders the good roads move
