 Be Used on the Upper

w D. Brown and County Engineer J. NJ. Garrett were appointed 0 committee at a meeting of the Board of Revenue of Montgomery County yesterday to in- spect the Upper Wetumpka Road at Mad ison Park with the view to regraveling that part of the highway.

 Mir. Reeves urged that the Board com plete this work as the road Is in a very bad condition, the clay foundation for the graved surface having been laid.
 It was moved that the gravel be bought in a quantity sufficient to com plete the work.
