The work done on Richmond
street by Supervisor Simmons is
up-to-date and makes that the best

be put in that same shape now, we
would have a street worth while.
St. Johns will not be worth snap
until her streets are improved.
The sooner our people waken up to
that fact and get busy the sooner
will we have people coming here in
such numbers that there will not
be an empty house in the city in

empty store buildings as there are
now. 1t Is up to us to get a move.
