"Sorrow is a very steep,
rough road but it leads
straight to the heart of
God."
In time of sorrow, we need
our friends. Realizing that
need, we serve not in the
usual business-customer rela-
tionship but as a sincere
friend in need.
Let us serve you when the
need arises.

Good Roads Meeting—

quite some opposition, and added
that perhaps a bare majority in
his community would be in favor
of the plan. Roy Skelton, Prosper,
said he had discussed the matter
with a good many Prosperites and
(hat most people in his community
would probably vote for re-alloca-
tion. Mr. Fisher, Frisco, said those
in his community whom he had
seen were two to one for the pro-
posal.
Dr. Saye. Frisco, said a point to
remember was the invisible tax
we are paying for NOT having
roads, and that it probably costs
us more in the long run than we
would pay for a first-class lateral
road system. He said he’d guess
NOT having roads was costing
him $1,200 a year, and added that
the ants have a lot better roads in
Collin County than the people do.
Others stating that most people
in their communities with whom
they had discussed the matter
were in favor of the plan were W.
B. Peebles, Lee Howell and T. W.
Cowan, Weston; G. V. Bray, Ce-
lina; Clyde Haggard, Chambers-
ville, and Mr. McCall. Snow Hill.
The group organized itself into
the Collin County Farm to Market
Roads Association, Orren Hope
was named as secretary and Mr.
Neal appointed Gibson Caldwell,
Charley Akins and B. E. O’Brien
to formulate bylaws. The organi-
zation will meet again in the dis-
trict court room Thursday night,
April 12. .and every member was
asked by the chairman to bring
with him every man in the coun-
ty whom he could possibly per-
suade to come.
