The GRAFTON Sentinel does not
think much of the plan OF building
good roads In spots, which the Tel
egram recently declared was better
than no road building at all ''The
trouble with this sporting business, "
says the Sentinel, ELS the spots don't
stay put We have gotten sick and
tired OF this old spot process of roal
repairing. The only satisfactory
way to build a road is to build a
complete road from, beginning to end
and then to keep it in good shape"
there Is not enough money on
hand, however to construct the
whole road. the TELEGRAM repeats
that it is better to build what can
Be built at once than to build none
at. all, although roads should be
substantially built and properly
maintafned no matter what their
length.
