ROADS ARE BAD.
Rural Carriers Having Hard Time to
Make Trips.

The wind and warm sun of the past
few days has dried the roads and lefV
them in a horrible condition. While
none of the carriers have missed a
single trip, some of them have been
having rough time in doing so.
]. A VanDuyne who carries route
8, southwest of town, had over a
mile that was almost impossible and
informed the patrons that he could
not travel that road unless 1t was
fixed. Yesterday force was at work
with road drags on the stretch and
In a short time put it in good shape.
The next trip saved over 40 minutes.
Other routes are being dragged and
the road from Grant township line to |
the bridge has been put ii good |
shape by harrows and drags. The
city should get busy and not only
1rag the streets but all roads leading
INTO town. II the commission form Of
government was in operation In abb

commissioners 1t Is presumed that
his kind Of work would be done with

SOME DAMAGE TO WALKS.
Long Spell Of Wet Weather Spoiled
Many Of the Bricks.

The bad condition of the brick
sidewalks all over the city, caused
by the long period of snow, rain and
Ice, is very noticeable. Wherever the
snow and ice remained over the
walks for any great length of time
and melted the walks were almost
under water, and in instances where
the SOFT brick have been laid, the
walks are warped considerably.
Some of the bricks will settle down
in their place In time, but in many
cases are broken or badly cracked,
caused from having usurped consld-
cradle water and afterwards having
been frozen, the freeze making chem
crack.
In most cases where the walks are
damaged to any extent, the parkings
are much lower than the walks so
that when the water ran down off the
walks 1t remained standing at the
edge Of the walks next to the street.
And whenever the ice and snow was
hoved merely to the edge of the
walks It melted and the water ran
ack onto the walks, causing most Of
he damage.

France and permit the construction
OF air ships only by government ber-
mission and under restrictions. The
