A- The traveling public might. well ask what has of Utah county's road supervisors, or whether or not .such officials have" become extinct. -- People coming from the south pnd of the county tell us that the roads in Spanish Fork canyon are not only so full of rocks that travel there is made extremely expensive, but downright dangerous. It is also stated that the main road leading from, the canyon north into Springville. and Provo has been blockaded for more than a month by a deep pond of stagnant seepage water, with have had to detour the result that automobiles ' for a mile. It is indeed unfortunate that our county commissioners do not sense the responsibility that rests upon them in the matter of giving their constituents service that does not forever subject them to the severest kind of criticism. If the commissioners feel that The Post is too critical in its discussion of their lack of performance in matters affecting the people as a whole, it might be interesting for them to know that only a few of the complaints coming to this office are referred to by this paper. There is a general feeling that the county commissioners now receive ample compensation so that they might well afford a greater proportion of their time to matters of economic importance to the taxpayers of this county and the state. 1 : 1 ' a m" .

The task of the present times is the picking. up of loose ends, and the getting back to pa- tient and careful methods. The people wTho look carelessly at a little waste, get in the habit of looking with indifference on a big one. It is a time also for intensive study of every form of production to see how the most can be ef-fected with the least cost. If every business man and every worker in Provo will do in his own affairs what Henry Ford did in his factories, our community will have some share In the same prosperity that has come to Mr. Ford in his big business. -- - ACTIVITIES. The theory of life cherished by the average American business man is to work like thunder , until he is about 60 years old, and then retire and live on his income.
