If we continue to let highways go around us, we will take on our-
selves a handicap from which we can never recover. Where are the towns i
and communities which a few years a#o were passed by the railways?
Today three-fourths of the travel is by highway, and the highways are
more important than the railway.
It is not only for touHsts and homeseekers travel that we want the
highways. It is fofr ourselves and for our own citizens. Cotton and other
farm products are being haued out of Brow n county over the good high-
ways of other counties; our own people are going to take the good road
