Elkton. Md. Dec. ao, 1910.

Elkton, Md. Dec. 10, 1910.
Editor CECIL. WING,
Dear Sir:-The following comment
concerning our towns progress dur
ing the last year is not written in a
feeling OF bitterness or pessinfisin;
but mercy to put the question be-
fore our townsfolk-Should Elkton-
ians feel entirely satisfied with them
selves and their little town.
During the last year Elkton has
shown little or no activity liz the
building trades-an activity so vital TO
the growth O. any town. AS a result,
nearly the whole percentage OF our
craftsmen are engaged IN the sur
rounding towns and country busily
engaged in developing the resources
OF our neighbors.
Elktons manufacturing enterprises
continue to exist; but no new ones
have been attempted or solicited.
Truly industrial progress seems at a
standStill with us. This. however, can
not be said OF other nearby towns.
Further, let us see ii any progress
has been made during the last year
concerning the comfort and conyen-
fence OF our citizens. The Pennsyl-
vana road has actually discontinued
portions OF a train service that was
faulty at best. There is now a lapse
OF nearly six hours in the evening
when no trains deposit or take on
passengers at Elkton Our station is
not comfortable nor handsome-it is
in a word obsolete This treatment
is borne b va town that gives un-
grudging.y larrcr patronage than
any town OF lis size along the Inc.
Again. after the early hours OF the
evening, the pedestrian gropes his way
along our streets shrouded in utter
darkness. Now il the sidewalks be
lett unclcancd after snow has fallen,
until an icy coating has formed. one
is in intimate danger OF personal in
jury.
Our High School students still COM
plain OF an inadequate heating sys-
TEN, just as the writer and his class
mates used to complain years ago.
We were about To add TO this long
list OF backsiding by mentioning some
OF Elkton's retrogressive politics; but
we iccl tina, the hustling editor OF the
WING has fully covered this theme.
Respectfully submitted,
An Elktonan.
