 Interest in Hull street Paving. You would be surprised to know
 how much interest is being taken in the petition that the property owners on Hull street sent to the City Council aeross the s'g person who does not think that such a move on the part of the city would be good one. and who Is not particularly desirous of Knowing In advance what action the city fathers
 Tho making of Hull street good driveway leading to Cloverdale would eraily patronized oues in the city, and would of course, have the effect ot improving the property in whatever region it touches. Houses would be untenanted. and, the street could be turned into a pleasant and profitable boulevard.
 Then, again, it is more or less duty on the part of the city to give the CIoverdale residents a good street upon which to travel when going into the city or back to Cloverdale. Nice asphalt paving would have the effect of taking away any disadvantages at- tendant upon residence in this most de- nghtful suburb, and would make it one of the most beautiful city annexes in the South"

 particu ular T Concerning Montgomery girls is that they appear to attire themselves more tactfuliy and skilfuiiS than girls in other cities l have vist \ ted. They dress handsomely, almost stunningiy, l might say, and manage to so array themselves as to win the plaudits of the eager eyes that look towards them from every street cor ner in commercial Montgomery The girls are among the best inducements that the city can offer for the 1slo proposition to you for consideration"
