OUR COMMISSIONERS
ARE COMM ENDED

st. l.uce county is right to the front
on the good roads question. The coun-
ty commissioners of that young county
are men who do things, very neces-
sary qualification for successful and sat
isfactory servants of the people. These
commissioners have passed the talking
stage in the good roads agitation and
have actually placed an order for road
making machinery. At the expense of
the Good Roads Machine Co.. of Kennth
square, Penn, the members OF
the board visited Gainesville, Ga, :,
where they saw the machinery at work
on the soft and slippery clay roads OF
that section. After carefully watch
ing the operation of big road machine
with its train of rock cars, the plOws,
the stone crusher, the roller and other
equipment necessary in the economical
building of permanent roadways, they
decided to spend little more than SlO,-
900 for the benefit of st. Lucie county
The machinery is to be given two
weeks trial and if satisfactory will be-
come the property of st. Luce county
The people of ST. Lucie are to be con-
yratulated on the prospect of soon hav-
ing well made and durable highways,
The enormous benefit from such i'm
provements will repay ten-fold the init
ial expense. st. Lucie sets an exam
pie for other counties in the State that
are sorely in need of some decent means
of transportation, st Augustine Rec
