I was wondering the other day, too,
why the city was building cement
sidewalks on the little back sidewalks
where no one travels, when there are
so many places where the money could
be spent that would be a benefit to so
many more people. Take Friend
street from College to the union sta
ton. That street or the sidewalk is
a disgrace to the city. 1t once, in the
long ago, was brick sidewalk, but
the bricks are worn out and there are
great holes in it where the water
stands in great puddles when there is
any rain to speak OF. And it leads
from the new postofhce to the depot,
where nearly every one who comes to
Newberry travels. A sidewalk in this
street has been built from College
street on up to the Lutheran church
anc then way on the back side of
Johnstone street. That is all right,
but this other end it seems to me
needs an introduction to the aaehori-
ties.
The herald and news. [volume] (Newberry S.C.) 1903-1937, 1912-07-02

And then speaking of streets it
seems to me that it is a piece of the
greatest patch work to leave off the
paving of the public square where it
is. While at it why not go on and
make that little park in front of the
old court house building and pave that
part of the SQUARE that would be left
And in the lower square make little
park in the centre and pave the rest.
But you say the money is out. Then
go in debt and do it. 1t would be econ
omy in the end and the people will not
complain about the debt if they have
something to show for it. And then
the rest of the paving should be, bithu-
littic and not brick, for many reasons.

and it is cleaner ana costs very little

BURT'S CREEK
SCHOOL OPENS
MechanicsviIIe People Are
indignant Over Action.
to the EVENING NEWS.

Special to the EVENING NEWS.
South Amboy, Oct. 14.-At last the
knowledge has come to some of the
parents in S~ayreville township why
it was necessary to have larger
school buildings in South Amboy.
The superintendent of schools and
the Board of Education of S~ayreville
township have formulated a plan
which, if carried into effect, will
cause a great deal of indignation
among parents in the southerly part
of the township.
For a number Of years the school
building located neal Burt's Creek,
on account of the smallness of the
school and the inconvenience for the
attendance of the pupils, has been
closed. The pupils have been d.
vided, some going to the nearest
school in S%ayreville township, while
those on the southerly side were sent
owe to a school opened in the M. e.
chapel building in Mechanicsv1lle,
which has been running for several
years. Now it seems to be the prop
osition by the Board of Education,
sanctioned by Superintendent Willis,
to close the school in Mechanicsville
and open the Burt Creek building.
This will necessitate the pupils at
tending the Mechanicsville school to
come to South Amboy, or else go a
longer distance to the Burt Creek
school. The parents are quite indig-
nant, especially those who have
small children, because they will be
compelled to send them a longer dis
lance to please the whams of the
Board of Education.
