FIX WATERFORD ROAD
 AT AN EARLY DATE.
State Highway Surveyors Started on Thursday to Lay Out the Work.

Selectman Lanphere of Waterford has succeeded in getting the promise of the state highway department to make the long contemplated improve ments to the road from Jordan to Rope Ferry bridge, during the comin 5 summer. This stretch of highway is about two and half miles in 1engti. Gnd it is much travelled.
 The road goes over Logger and Dur fey hills and the improvements will cost 10000. of which the state will pay s15,000 and the town s5,000.
 It is not intended to make very many changes in the grades. as the height of the hills would make such work too expensive There will be scme cuts, however, and some of the serious kinks will be strengthened oui. making the highway much easier for travel.
 Se1ectman Lanphere recently saw State Highway Commissioner Bennett and placed the necessity for action be- fore him in such an effective way that the commissioner promised to go ahead at once. In compliance with that promise, surveyors from the highway department went to work yesterday in laying out the improvements on tha; stretch of road.
