How such losses may be prevented is n

GOVERNMENT ROAD
EXPERT IN CITY
ARRIVED YESTERDAY AND AT

AN INVESTIGATION.

Ben E. Jones, government road ex-

morning for the purpose of making a
thorough investigation of the roads
of this county as we'll as Of a mixed
material, which, 1t is believed, will
make a first-class country road and
at the same time be very economi-
cal.
Mr. Jones' visit to Brunswick is
the result of the work of Congress
man Brantley and the county COM
missioners, who some time ago re-
quested Mr.. Brantley to use his eff
fcrts to have the government detail
one of its road experts to this county.
Mr.. Jones will probably he in the city
for five or six weeks.
If the plan which the county COM
missioners have outlined is favorably
reported by the government expert, it
means that Glynn county will have as
good country roads as any section 0f
the state, and they can be constructed
and maintained at a very small cost.
ture of clay and sand, to be found in
abundance right in this county, will
make a very desirable road. 1t has
been tried already upon a small scale
and so enthusiastic were the aIthori-
ties over the success of it that the
request was made for the government
expert.
t A road of some distance will now be
built of the mixture, directly under
the supervision of Expert Jones, and
the success of the plan will be await
ed with much interest. If it proves
as good a road as is expected the
material will be used on all roads in
the county
I Mr.. Jones will at once go to work
and will today make an inspection
Of some of the county roads with Sup
erintendent Higginbotham, of the
