TOWN IMPROVEMENT HINTS

The best method In which q town
can pave Its way to success IL 70 pave
Its streets and improve the highways
leading therefrom.
The women OF WenatcheA Wash.
have formed II local floral association
and introduced plant and flower cul-
ture into many homes. The success
has been so great that u midwinter fair
Is planned 10 properly exhibit flowers
produced.
The parks board OF Hamilton, Can
ada. Is cooperating with the citizens
OF the town In the planting OF shade
trees on all the leading streets.
IL Is the poorest sort OF economy TO
have bad sidewalks. There are many
cases on record where the amount paid
as the result Of accidents amounted to
more than enough TO put the walks In
good shape. Any town can well AFFORD
70 bond itself for sidewalk repairs.
The Mems league OF the Congrega-
ttonal church Of Elgin. ILL.,. has made
town Improvement one OF it's chief OBJ
jects for consideration and has taken
steps toward the formation Of the El.
gin Public Improvement society.
