The desire of the atitolst to speed, probably more than anything olae. has brought about a great movement all over tho country for tho hotter merit of road conditions. That this is so has hoo,ii ritailo evident in Jack son during tho last year or two, but the onil hv no moans Is yet in sight. There P, still a great deal to be ac complished before tho roads or the county will lie In that state whore thoy will attract tourists.- Antoino bllists are the pioneer or good ronds lioosters, and automobllo clubs are uin more potent factors In tho campaign. That there will ho something do ing in good roads of lines of Jackson county this summer is taken ror granted by all who have rend the signs or the times. Tho automobile fovor has bocomo so contagious that It has grabbed pi-oily nearly every possible victim, and now (ho num ber of goo roads boosters Is almost Identical with the number of trav-oloi-H. Thoroforo good roads in .Inclc aori will shortly bocomo tho rule, not tho oxcopllon. Tliero has been organized in Mod- ford an nutomobllo club and this sum mer big tilings, aru expected. Thoro is something different in tho atmos phere, and tho obstacles to Hiicccssful organization or tho autolBts must all roll over. What would think of an nntomo bllo lrlvo of 100 inllcs In Jackson county, possible (o bo mado la a day, through a boautiful country, n Jniint that would bo a plcasurablo outing from one end of tho ride to the othor. At tho present time likely you would laugh and Hrofr at tho very Idea. Hut, nevertheless, )t H said to bo a possibility that can bo made a ronllty at comparatively small cost. AutoiHts say Hint right now tho mp can be made, al hough it has been but a Tow dnya since consider able rain fell, but tho pleasure would bo marred In several Bpots where the rond )s not fit for auto travel.
