If Main street is to be made an
average width of As feet when it is
paved, it will allow ample room for
transplanting new shade trees on the
east side of Main street. 1t is too
bad that the trees that have died
were not Immediately replaced by
saplings. Main street is exception
ally hot, especially when the sun
beats down on the sidewalk. The
reflected heat, together with the
suns rays, makes it uncomfortably
hot to say the least. This could be
overcome to a certain degree by set
ting out more shade trees. When
the time comes for making the i'm
provement in the street let it be fol-
lowed by an effort on the part OF
property owners to set out shade
trees.
