The board of revenue spent the greaS- CT portion ofsits time yesterday morn- ing in considering matters pertaining to roads.
 c. T. Prestcott, ve Pine Level, peti- toned the body to allow the testing of certain sand gravel and sand for roads in the vicinity of Pine Level. The board practically granted the petition for the experiment on a mile of road. but put the matter into the hands of County Engineer Bullen to confer with MT. Prestcott
 Walter Ingram, representing a num- Der of citizens, petitioned for the graveling of three and a half miles of the Hanchy Mill road beyond Snow petition would be taken up in due course when other road matters of like nature are considered.
 It was agreed by the board to pay half the cost of grading and gravelling a road to extend from the terminus of Highland avenue eastward to the proposed new cemetery, a half mile in length. It was roughly estimated that the road would cost about $2.500. The County Engineer was directed to survey the road preparatory to adver- tising for bids
 The petition of a number of citizens. asking that the extension of South Court street for a distance of two and a half miles be opened as public road. was finally granted and. in view of the fact that all property owners except two have agreed to the improve ment, the county attorney was direct ed to enter condemnation proceedings in the probate court against Miss Gil- mer and Mrs. Harris, for such right of way.
 Several formal applications for the position ofassistant to Overseer Shir- ley were received. The board decided to leave the selection to MT. Shirley.
