is considerably lower than it is on the
same street in the business portion,
and it will be raised to a uniform level
before the macadam is laid. The pro-
cess of raising the grade will make it
necessary to do considerable grading
work on the hill at Academy street,
and it may take longer to get the street
thoroughly prepared for macad amiz-
ing than was at first expected.
