Week 10 a Good Thing and Will Be

Grade Week" for AmerIcus was q
subject discussed with a great deal of
interest at the regular meeting of the
Board of Trade on Tuesday night, and
it is matter that is going to be pushed
to successful accom- lishment by that
energetic body.
It means a great deal for Americus,
comm ercialIy, and the merchants f the
city are especially interested in its
success and will materially assist the
Board to that end.

in the fall season, would be Of very

At this meeting the Board endorsed
the movement looking to the compila-
ton OF new city directory. Americus
sorely needs one, and the Board OF
Trade is of the same opinion.
The SUBJECT of improved streets was
likewise discussed at considerable
length. Nothing adds more to the
beauty of a city than we'll paved streets
aud the graveling If Cotton avenue,
the Board thinks, is good place to
make beginning.
Ii is proposed to macadamize that
business thoroughfare from Lamar
street to the Central depot, and the
Central Railway will be requested to
furnish the gravel therefor.
And there is no doubt but that the
request will be granted.
If the railway company will supply
the material, as did the Sesboard in
the Improvement of Jackson street,
the city will do all the work and a meg
nificent street from the Central depot
to the business centre will thus be
obtained.
Osher important matters than above
were also discussed.
The Board is now in position to do
valuable work for Americas and should
have the hearty co operation of every
earnest citizen. Other towns in this
section are forging to the front, and
Americus must keep the pase. She
can do it, and she will, too.
