SUSSEX WILL BUILD STONE ROADS.
Five Miles Between Georgetown aud Laurel TO
be Built With Macadam at Once

The Sussex County Levy Court has
authorized the construction of five
miles OF macadam roadway in Sussex
county, and the road selected is the
one leading from Georgetown TO
Laurel. The State Highway Com
mission has been notified of the de-
clslon OF the court, and the work will
be pushed through this summer. The
action OF the Sussex Levy Court places
this county in the front of road i'm
proVement, and leaves Kent county as
the only one in Delaware that is not
making effort to have improved road
ways. The bridges over the MispiI-
hon are an absolute necessity. and
they will probably be in position in a
few months; when this is done. then
upper Sussex is ready to enter into
the improvement of the roads on 8
large scale. 1t is far better to build
good roads than to continue the re-
pair system, now in practice, forever
