People who drive on Front street expecting to
find that thoroughfare a fine boulevard do not
have to drive many blocks before they discover
their mistake. There is no danger whatever Of

solid foundation everywhere along its entire
length but it IS too much like the waves of the
ocean in its uneven surface, and one feels much
as if they were at sea while driving over it, ex-
cept for the lack Of the surging pillows them
selves. a great business thoroughfare cannot,
OF course, be the most lovely drive in the world
but it does seem as il a little work would make
Front street much more passabe for carriages
