PAVING WORK
 STARTS AFRESH
Work Will Begin This Week on South Central Avenue. East Adams St. and South First Avenue to be Improved.
Paving operations are to go on.

Paving operations are to go on.
 The cruel war is over. and Phoe- nix is to attain her destiny-the best paved city in the southwest.
 Early this week the big steam blow will be brought from hiding by the Barber asphalt people and sent upon its puffy way down South Cen tral avenue. City Engineer Turney has notified franchise holders to get their conduits and pipes in order for the payers, and the company expects that there will be no cessation of the good work for a long time.
 The benefits of the paving already done are so apparent to property owners that little difficulty is being experienced in securing an extension of the work. and the slight increase in cost is not sufficient to make any material difference to the individual property owner
 The work at present outlined and to be taken up at once is the paving of South Central avenue from Jeffer- son street to Buchanan street. South First avenue from Jefferson to Bu- chanan thus giving two paved thor ,oughfares to the railroad stations. East Adams street is to be paved from First street to Fifth street. The alley between Washington and Adams street and Second street and Second avtnue will be treated as well as the alley between Washington and Jefferson streets and First street and First avenue.
 After the South Central avenue work is completed South First ave- nue will come in for disruption and beautifying. then the alleys and then East Adams street. By that time it is expected that other business streets will be ready for the bitulithic, es- pecially the connecting cross streets and after that work in the resident districts will begin. several streets already being in line.
 Efforts are being made to extend the ornamental lighting system as far as the railroad stations on South Central avenue and as far as the pavement goes on Washington street, and on East Adams street.
