THE BICYCLE PATH.
The matter OF building bicycle path
will also be brought 10 the attention OF
the meeting. So many wheeiInen have
expressed them selves rs heartily in favor
of it that [ seems that it should lie GO
The amount necessary to build the path
seems large, Out tEeEe are tnOuSaDuS III
terestcd i'll it. Many hands make light
work, and many shoulders can carry a
heavy burden.
The forty thousa nd riders in the city could
build 1t in u jiffy, if each one would walk
up 10 the front and give % cents. But it
is scarcely expected that this could tie done.
Ten thousapd Could build 1t if each would
give 81. II seems possible that 10,0C0
riders might be found who would do this,
but it means work to gather up the dollars.
Every one should put his shoulder to the
wheel and see what could be done.
A plan has been suggested which mag
be used after as many dollars have been
secured from Individual riders as possible.
The idea would be to hold a great cycle
carnival lasting for q week. 1t Possesses
one merit and that is the young ladies Of
the city could lie interested in the work.
They could Ir3ke the carnival a great sue
Cess. In Buffalo the riders we've enabled to
raise 81 . 900 from u carnival. The Money
is 10 be used To- build q bicycle path from
Buffalo TO Niagara Falls. q distance Of
twenty-five miles
This plan win be suggested TO the cyclcrs
who are interested in the work. At first

idea viii I've worked and then the carnival.
The money cnD be used and the path can
be built. Washington. then wUui have
the most bea utiful bicycle path In the world
