paid q glowing tribute to Ex-Governor
Frederick w. Plaisted, in regard to his
stand taken in the good roads move
ment in the State of Maine.
Mr. Nelson mentioned some very in
teresting points in speaking of the road
move. He advanced the most ade-
quate and practible methods of build
ing good roads. He urged the great
necessity of making the roads safe
above all things. Il am great friend
of gravel roads," said the speaker
but l do not think that the gravel
road has been given a fair show in
the State of Maine, simply because
1t has not been given adequate main
tenance. If the State builds their
roads broad and smooth, safe, and
with proper drainage, with generous
amount of gravel surface, they have
done their part. The speaker stated
that il the gravel road failed it would
BE ON account of excessive traffic. In
this case a better surface should be
put on, such as concrete, for example.
The work Of the members of the
highway department since their TAX
ing Office was briefly touched.
MT. NtiSpI ltoNeA ID very SdpiDiS
