Vermont Roads in Limelight

Vermont is brought into the lime
light as offering desirable routes to
Automobiles, according to a report
received by the touring department
of the A. G. A., and published in
Sundays New York Times. Accord
ing to the report, much road i'm
provement work is row being done
in the state, and automobilists will
traverse a number of additional
good roads. Thus it will be seen,
the good roads agitation has result
ed in something, and the efforts to
feature our state as the mecca for
tourists has likely proven of avail.
A number of trunk routes have re-
ceived attention from the highway
authorities. One of these which has
benefited and will be further i'm
proved, says the report, runs
through North Pawlet and Wells,
thence along the east side of Lake
st. Catherine to Poultney. This
road is being widened, hills cut
down, depressions filled in, and a
heavy covering of gravel put on. 1t

pert advertiser and a development

alert for business opportunities. His
conclusions are the conclusions on
which the Publicity Bureau Of the
Chamber of Commerce is basing its
program of publicity and develop
ment. The bureau belives all that
Mr.. Grove said and also, as MIR.
Grove further suggested, that Will

benefits of the development which
must come with the development.
