Armistice Day Wayne county was glad to pay honor today to its service men in a dignified and patriotic anniversary of the signing of the armistice. Not only the citizens of this county, but thousands of visitors, were our guests, and by their presence and with their enthusiasm contributed to the joy that was characteristic of the cele- ' bration. Never has Richmond seen a procession such as was the one that today marched through its j principal streets and across the new Main street bridge. Men of all branches of the service, who i have returned to their civilian callings, were the center of attraction. It was the first time that the county had an opportunity of seeing its service men in one body. The veterans of the Spanish-American war and of the Civil war were represented by their floats. Various agencies for war relief and many phases of our industrial and business institutions which aided in the war had an opportunity ro presenting graphically their contributions. : The general idea of the celebration, to depict the development of America in all its phases., was carried out excellently. But the parade now is history. The thousands who lined the streets must not overlook the duty they owe the men who marched in the uniform of their country and to those who were unable to participate because of disability which iept them at home or in hospitals elsewhere. We owe these men a debt of gratitude far beyond our ability to repay. We cannot pay it by passing compliments on the beauty of the parade or congratulating the former soldiers on their fine military bearing. Whenever any of these men needs a job to enable him to obtain a livelihood, it is our duty to assist him in his quest. Whenever one of them becomes ill, it is our duty to provide for medical attention. Whenever one of them, disabled and incapacitated, needs financial assistance, it is our duty to direct the proper agencies to his door. Therein is to be found an approved method of honoriig our soldiers. Empty words are futile, but deeds speak in a language that does good.

Our County Road System A number of surprises were in store for the member of the Young Men's Business club who'

Today's Talk By George Matthew Adams THIS UNEVEN LIFE. George Chesterton once said that this is the best f all impossible worlds." There are few of us to whom the j-.icture of an uneven world does not come, time and again. But uneven as it is, there are hours of such exquisite beauty intermixed with all its unevenress and unfairness, that we know in our hearts that it is worth while, after all. Much of our lives must be devoted to a smoothing process making our ways happier hy thinking about the happiness of other people. Yes, this is a very uneven world. To our own minds, we are cheated out of much we well deserve. But all the time we are controlled by forces infinitely wiser than any that we are able to devise. And so, for the larger pood, we must be brave and plod on. The greatest man who ever lived 1n point f soul and character was -a man of sorrow s." We live very uneven lives and riany of the rewards of this life are given over to undeserving hands. But if is the affair of each one of us to prove adequate to the task at hand. Cromwell once said: "Trust in God 20TH CENTURY LINIMENT ENDS NEURALGIA AND NEURITIS INSTANTLY Rub It On Freely. Nothing Speedier or Bstter Say Local Druggists who Are Selling Lots of It on the Money Back if Dissatisfied Plan.

For miles around people are coming for 20th Century Liniment. The report of its mighty power to end aches and pains almost instantly, and overcome nil soreness and lameness has had its effect and druggists throughout the country report having a hard time keeping it in. stock. 20th Century Liniment never disap points and will neither burn nor blis ter. It brings quick relief from Neuralgia, Rheumatic Pains and Twinges, Sprains and all soreness of nerves and muscles. Don't think that because 20th CerA tury Liniment doesn't smart, burn and blister it isn't doing good. It brings comforting, soothing relief with the first rub. Try it tonight and see if you don't feel fit as a fiddle in the morning. If it doesn't do all and more than we claim for it, take the mottle back to your druggist and he will return your money without question. Keep a bottle in the house all the time.

We must not ourselves spoil nor allow others to spoil that fine sense of proportion which may be the heritage of us all, when dire days come to us. This uneven life you can do much to make it even!

RICHMOND PALLADIUM ANP

made an inspection of the county road system ai

few days ago. Usually business men find many places yrtiere public operations could be improved, but in this instance they found a department of the county government administered in a thoroughly efficient and business-like manner. It showed results, members of the club said, that could not have been attained cheaper by a private organization engaged in the same line of work. The methods of administration that are applied in this department to get maximum results at a minimum expenditure of the people's money are admirable and commendable. Usually a comparison between the cost of a public and a private enterprise is all in favor of the latter. Overhead is lower, administration methods are of a higher standard, and results are of 'a better quality. But not so in the county highway department, business men said. They pointed to the labor-saving machinery that had been installed by the county commissioners and the county highway superintendent at various strategic points in the county to lift gravel from the creek bottoms. Spreaders are assigned to various districts to haul the material quickly to the roads that need repairs and to dis

tribute it evenly and effectively. Gravel in large quantities is stored at many points, so that it is accessible when repairs must tie made quickly. Long hauls are obviated. No time is lost when a bad stretch develops, for the material is at hand and all that is required is its transportation and distribution. Frequent inspections of the roads that are under the supervision of the highway superintendent enable him to discover the development of bad spots and to assign men to the repair work. The old slipshod method of waiting until a road is almost impassable before making repairs has disappeared. Work no longer waits -for moaterial or for its transportation, but moves along in a well ordered manner. All of which is apparent in the excellent highway system which Wayne county possesses. Much has been said lately about permanent roads, but the highway superintendent expressed a good-sized truth when he remarked at the Hagerstown meeting that all roads, irrespective of the material that entered into their construction, demand inspection and repairs and that his department partly exists for this purpose. Some materials are more durable than others, but even, the best is no proof against the attacks of wear

and weather. An alert official, with an efficient system, must always be on hand to make repairs as soon as the first indications of disintegration appear. Thousands of dollars of the public's money have been invested in road improvements, but lack of attention, under the old system, soon permitted the highways to go to pieces , under tho heavy traffic. Road construction and road maintenance go hand in hand under the new regime, and the results are to be found in an excellent system of highways.

"Ah, me," sighed the young wif3. "The days of chivalry are gone!" "Chivalry be blowed!" was the husband's heated retort. "Yes," continued the now weeping young wife, "Sir Walter Raleigh laid down his cloak on the ground for Queen Elizabth to walk on, but you you get angry simply because poor, dear mother sat down on your hat." The teacher's last question was meant to be a scientific poser. "What is it that pervades all space," she said, "which no wall or door or other substance can shut out?" "The smell of onions, miss," promptly answered the boy in the lront seat.

By Roy K. Moulton I ' . j We have no ambition to be the recipient of a goat gland, although many gentlemen in various parts of the country are having them installed. We believe that after living through this life once, if any doctor should catch us when we were unconscious and set us back to the age of 20 years" we should not only be very angry at him, but sue him for damages. It would be no joke to start all over again with the cost of living where it is. MARCEL'S DRAMATURGY. Students in Dramaturgy should take great care in selecting a plot. The keynote of the play should be sim pliclty. Make the main theme simple, because most of the audience lead simple lives and hate to be disturbed either physically or mentally. Originality is not necessary, but in plagialising be clever, and if you are caught at it say it was from an original Hindu fr.ble written over a thousand years ago. The other author probably is as puilty as you and will keep quiet. There are always possibilities in the triangle. A few morbid minds delight in tragic action, but the average person likes romance, sentiment and the milk pail variety of drama. At the final curtain the birds are singing and the flowers are blooming and happi ness everywhere reigns supreme. A fact that connot be disputed is that many sucessful plays from the box office point of view are written by men who' know nothing about dramaturgy and probably think that Cleo Satj , (&L
