GOOD ROADS

and activity. The annual conven-

and was largely attended, there be-
ing between SUI ana 4UU DELEGATES
Since that convention met, counties
and townships in Western North
Carolina have issued ABOUT Sl.3l) :
900 in bonds for good roads. Most
OF the Piedmont and Eastern coun-
ties which have considered bond
issues during this period have not
regarded them tavoraDly; and tor
this reason it has been thought wise
by the Executive Committee of the
North Carolina Good Roads Asso-
clatlon to hold this convention in
the eastern part OF the State.
There are still a great many cues

need to be worked out, and it is bv
