As will lie noticed in our local col
umns the Town Commissioners of
Perryville are permanently macadamiz.
ing the main street OF that town. 1t is
a laudable public improvement, which
its citizens will commend and COM
mending, enjoy. Not only that, such
permanent improvements enhance the
value of everybody's property, We
commend to our own Town Council
the example of Perryville in the good
policy of expanding money on the
streets only for permanent improve
ments. Taxes invested in durable
highways either in town or county are
paying investments to the taxpayers.

Our readers will find in another
column of this issue of the WIG, the
text of the new law for Cecil county
prohibiting shooting live pigeons from
traps. That an end has been put to
this cruel and barbarous sport within
the limits of Cecil county, our people
are to thank Mr.. r. L. Thomas, who
deserves credit for having the humane
act passed.
