blocks this summer; Eugene, seven,
Ashland, Baker City and other towns
from three to five. Isn't it about time
for Dallas to fall in line? Paved
streets in the business district and
crushed rock in the residence section
would make Dallas the most beautiful
town in Oregon, and the improvement
would be worth many times its cost to
