IMPROVEMENTS ABOUT LAKE

DURING THE PAST TWO YEARS.
 The first great improvement to be mentioned is that of the highway on each side of the lake for two miles from this village, which carries the traveller to the Warren line on the east side, and to Mrs o. J. WinanS cottage on the opposite side. The town or Washington in 1902 voted an appropriation for good roads, and among the most important places to be improved was the Lake highway run nlng from the foot of the Lake to and around Cherrie Point. Seleclman Frank J. Hosford, by his lowest bid. became the contractor for the work of widening and grading this two miles to the acceptance of the road commiS- Sioner. He has done splendid piece Of work, which does him great credit gang of men was employed most of the winter of l9O3-'O4 in blasting the ledgeS and taking out the rock ob- struction, so that early the past spring the road was graded to proper limits and has resulted in
