WHAT PADDY M'D0NNLL HAS To SAY
ON PAVING SITUATION IN THE CITY
The Man Who Has Laid All the Pavement Ever Put Down
in Grand Forks Prior Last Year Has Some Advice to
Residents of Paving District No. 15

First of all l want the people Of
Grand Forks to know that l am not
a material man but am simply con-
tractor who has put in bid on the
different kinds Of pavement that l
think best suited to the conditions
that exist in Grand Forks and this
part Of the country.
have submitted bids on several
kinds Of pavement for the reason
that in the end the choice is left with
the people Of the district and l am
not able in advance to determine
whether those people will want the
highest priced pavement or will de-
termine upon a more moderate priced
one. In each case l have based my
figures on the cost of materials Of
course and added percentage of
profit for the work of laying.
1t would seem that in city the
size of Grand Forks it would be we'll
not to experiment with too many
kinds Of pavement for the reason that
the repairs must be made by mex
perienced men to a great degree. and
while you may be able to get local
men who are familiar with one. two
or three kinds of pavement it is al
most impossible to find those who are
familiar with many kinds. This is a
factor that is often overlooked by
property owners until they realize
from experience what it means.
The Donnellite pavement which
bears my name has been laid in your
city for the past two years and an
inspection of the pavement will show
| that it is highly satisfactory. If you
wish to see some that has stood the
test Of two years wear cite you to
South Third street. In all there are
$4,000 yards Of Donnellite laid in the
city. 1t is pavement above all, dura-
BILE, elastic, clean, not slippery, easy
on horses and one which has been
tested under all North Dakota condi-
tions. In the matter of repairing
Donnellite paving admits of perfect
cohesion. leaving no cracks or flaws
of any kind. On this class Of pave
ment I have submitted a bid of 81
per yard for a complete street of Don
nellite. In the entire district this bid
entails saving to the residents OF
$15.997.05 in comparison with Btu
lithic pavement. And this in the face
of the fact that Donnellite and Btu
| illulS pdfculcutS dlo pldCtlSdlly luc
same. To each lot owner in the dis
trict this means a saving of $55 in
comparison with Bitulithic. When you
consider the Blome pavement the saw
ing to the entire district will be $12,-
687.20 or to each owner Of one lot $44
Westrumite paving can be laid at the
same cost as Donnellite.
While am considering the Don
nellite pavement proper it is fitting
to say that after having laid twelve
blocks of the pavement at Ironwood,
Mich, several years ago was called
back to that city last summer for
twenty-eight blocks addition work
without competition. At Crystal Falls,
Mich. under similar conditions was
awarded the contract even though l
was $1,000 higher than the next bid.

Bayreuth for the Wagner. festival
and will be guests of schumann-
Heink. Bayreuth is the rendezvous
of the musical people of the two
worlds from July to September and
this visit will be exceedingly delight
full.
Mr.. Mills then returns to Paris to
enter upon his years study. He will
make his selection of an instructor
after he arrives but will endeavor to
get the very best to be had. All the
masters Of that city are much in de-
mand and 1t would be impossible for
Mr.. Mills to complete his study plans
vat this early date.
While in New York city Mr.. Mills
will make some records for one of
the large phonograph companies.

l have submitted bid for district
Is on this combination pavement Of
$61, ,063.21 or $210 per lot. If you will
take the trouble to investigate the
figures and bids you will find that the
Bitulithic combination will cost the
tax payers Of the district $9,36184
more than the Donnellite combination
to satisfy the most scrutinizing owner
for the reason as stated above that
the Donnellite and Bitulithic pave
ment is practically the same pave
ment. The Blome people have not
seen fit to submit bid on the COM
bination pavement, therefore to make
a comparison we must use the bid for
an entire Blome street. The Don
nellite combination pavement will be
a saving of $15,12S.99 over the Blome
pavement for the entire district, or
s53 per lot.
The above statements should con-
vince the people of district Is which
is the best and cheapest pavement for
their purposes.
In conclusion permit me to say that
l have been in the paving business all
my life and am we'll known in this
locality and in all the business rela-
tions l have had with the people of
Grand Forks and the city officials
there has never been the least trou-
BILE of any kind. I am here on the
ground where l can handle the paw
ing of the city to the best advantage
and at the minimum cost. This is the
reason my bids are the lowest sub
mitted when the character of the
pavement is considered.
Let me state again that am not
material man but contractor and
the profit will be about the same to
me whether you lay creosote blocks.
Donnellite or Westrumite paving. II

laid regardless of cost take the creo-

ask you to thoroughly consider the

No More Commencement Donations.
The board voted to discontinue
the practice of making donation
to the graduating classes for their
invitations to the graduating exer-
cises. The practice is not followed
generally elsewhere, and the board
felt that as long as the pupils are
given their education free, with all
should stand the expense of inviting
their friends to the commencement
exercises, which are themselves free
to the public, the invitations merely
being complimentary OH the part of
the graduates. In order to prevent
the possibility OF this action being
changed, motion was made to re-
consider the vote, and it was lost
on roll call, six to one. a.
Request for Money Denied.
Superintendent lSperry said that
W. ID. Willard had asked that the
board donate 5000 to help finish the
Lewis Athletic field, as the high
school students will use the field.
The board decided that it had no
legal right to spend money that way
and passed motion to the effect
that the request be not complied
with. 1t appears that the Y. M. c. A..
has used up a lot of the high school
gymnastic apparatus, and it was
suggested that a gift of this be con.
sidered fair trade for privileges
in the Lewis Athletic field.
A large number of bills were al
lowed.
