Better Paint

Better paint this year if your property
needs it. Mistaken men have been
waiting for paint to come-down. The
cost of their job has gone-up not down;
it always goes up by waiting; never
comes down.
Better paint than Devoe? There isn't
any.
Suppose one had waited 20 or 80 years
ago for better paint than Devoe; how
long would he have waited? How
long would he still have to wait?
The price a gallon makes some differ

Dear Editor.

Dear Editor
Will you please explain why the
CITY Commissioners did not in
cIude the north side of Toulihe st.
from second to the railroad in it's
last paving ordinance! This is
one of the most used thorough
fares on account of the school
children who attend the convent,
in town and should have been
among those paved two years ago,
and certainly should not only be
included among those paved this
time. but the whole street graveled
as well as the one block from
Front to Second.
CITIZEN.
This inquiry of Citizen is very
timely and it would De well if the
Commissioners should look into it
at once so as to include it in the
paving ordinances recently passed
when those few streets that were
not taken in the last time with
this one exception, will be now.
AS Citizen says, this stretch from
the corner of Second is a very
much used thoroughfare, it really
ranks among the most important
because of the many children who
use 1T daily going to and from
school. Last winter when the
mud was unprecedented, we ven
ture to say, that dozens of those
school children suffered from the
result of wet feet that necessarily
followed because that side of the
street on which the convent is
situated is not paved or is there a
crossing along the whole length of
the grounds. We understand that
the nuns are anxious that it be
paved and we hope that the Com
missioners will order it to be. and
in our next issue we will be able
to tell "Citizen'' that when the
contract for the paving is given,
the north side Of Touline will be
the first to receive the attention of
the contractor.

held the place until today when Geo.
Gunter got the job.
