Ed b. Terry. a local motorist, who re-
turned several days ago from a trip to
Atlantic City. states that he went via
Perryville. Aiken. Battle Swamp. Rising
Sun, Calvert. Blue Ball. Fair Hill, APP
pleton and thence to Newark, and that
he found this route very satisfactory. No
the run. and for this reason he recon-
mends this route. He found a good
macadam stretch between GATHERINGS
Corner and Rising Sun, and another mac
adam highway between Appleton and
Newark, Del. He deviated on the return
trip in order to ascertain the condition
of the road in the vicinity of Northeast,
Nd Leaving Elkton detours were neces-
sary before getting into Northeast. From
this point to Perryville nothing has been
done to the road in the way of recon-
struction, and he found ii in the same
sandy condition it has been in for years.
This route led him through Charlestown
few miles distant from Perryville.
Mr.. Terry also motored over the new
route from Glenarm to Belair, via Scarf.
and found this route very desirable. 1t
eliminates the several miles of rough
road between Fork and Belair. The old
Hartford pike, he says, is being recon
structed, and at the present time about
eight miles of excellent macadamiZed
highway has been completed from Balti-
