Proposed Brookville- Dubois
ReynoldsviIle Paved Road.

During the last few weeks much has
been said and written concerning q
proposed paved road to connect Dubois
and Brookville via of Reynoldsville.
As yet the plan Is in the formative
stage only, never having been officially
determined upon, nor is any community
or organization especially booming the
project. Yet the eagerness with which
the project has been received is pretty
good evidence for believing that at no
distant date the dream will material
ize. 1t would not be difficult to carry
out the plan. The greater part Of the
way between Dubois and Reynoldsville
is already paved with brick or
macadamized, and there remains only
a two or three mile stretch In Sandy
township, Clearfield county, and the
road from Brookville to Reynolsville.
The WinslOw township supervisors,
with foresight and progressive spirit
which does them honor, long ago fled
appllcatl0ns Tor state aid to pave the
pike out from West Reynoldsville.
With similar enterprise shown by the
supervisors of Pinecreek township and
the district out from Brookville it
would be a matter of only few years
until the finest highway in the state
would wind its way through Reynolds
Vile.
1t is unfortunate that the state aid
now being extended for the building of
a two mile stretch OF road out from
Brookville does not apply on the pike
leading to Reynoldsville. Instead 1t
goes out to the county poor farm. The
commissioners of the county, individ-
ually, are in favor OF doing all possible
to secure the needed links In
the Dubois Reynoldsville- Brookville
thoroughfare.
