Yesterday was one of those dull, damp,

How long will it be before the citizens of

on those two streets.
Many people, especially those citizens liv-
ing several blocks back on the bench, tiud
it very convenient to pass through Lester
park. In wet weather the walks are
muddy and therefore unpleasant. II the
street committee would have some gravel
hauled on TO the walks, it would make an
Improvement which the people would fully
appreciate.
1t has heretofore been the custom when
an Ogden builder wanted an extra fine
quality of pressed brick to send to St. Louis
for them, the belief being that the same
grade could not be produced here at home,
this view has been proven to be erroneous
by Joseph Barton, who has charge of
Joseph Jackson's brick mandatory in the
southeastern part of the city. A specimen
of the pressed brick manufactured by Mr. |
Barton can be seen at The HERALD branch |
office. 1t is equal in quality to the St Louis |
article and its cost is about three-fOurthS |
as much. When such bricks can be manu- |
featured at home there is no necessity for !
sending abroad for them.
