They Favor State Road Between Falls
 Village and the Village of Canaan.
 The selectmen of the town of Canaan are in favor of good roads and will use their influence with state highway con- missioner to have him designate the road from Falls Village to Canaan as the next piece of state road to be built. These selectmen think the North Ca naan selectmen should make an effort to obtain the authority to build road from the village of Canaan toward Falls Village to meet the road built by the town of Canaan.
