The parcel post business of the gov

About everything conceivable that is
not positively forbidden by law is be

going into sacks and in other instances
being shipped in separate packages or
boxes with the necessary stamps The
mail clerks are not having the pleas
ATTEST sort of time in handling all
of it.
Maple syrup is being shipped out
regularly in this manner. Much of it
is in tins that are Grated, but the other

The fine new shoe store of Hamilton

SUGGESTIONS FOR
FURTHER PAVING
Blocks on Main Street Hill Would
Cover More Ground if Cut to Less
Depth and Laid in Cement

The problem of the proper method Of
paving Main street or any other street
in town is one that interests everyone
who has occasion to use the street. The
Reformer published recently letters re-
ceived by the selectmen in answer to
inquiries which they made of officials
in various cities and towns as 10 the
efficiency of different kinds OF pave
ment.
G, Victor Grant, secretary of the
Charles II. Grant Granite company. has
come forward with suggestion that
many believe is worth considering. 1t
involves Improving the paving on Main
street hill.
Mr.. Grant says that the blocks of
granite on that hill are from - to Is
inches in length, four to five wide and
six to seven deep. They are not laid
| on concrete foundation as. he SAYS
| all paving should be-
| The modern paving blocks Of granite
are from six 20 nine inches i'm length
three to four in width, and four to fivc
| in depth. Take mp the old paving
says Mr.. Grant. cut in two practically
all Of the blocks. certainly all Of the
| largest ones, and lay them on a cemeaj
| foundation and there would be pavipg
| blocks enough to cover nearly twice
the street now paved and the expense
of recruiting the blocks would not ht
more than 80 per cent of the cost o1
new blocks

oeIiAoA Dy heN. '" w. CoS
Rev, W. ". Coo, editor OF the North
field Press, supplied the pulpit at the
congregational church in the absence
of Rev. Mr. Lamb. He preached on
Christ the Light OF Life. He empha-
sized the point that Christ brought to

a new and brighter conception of God.
and that he lett all the great discov-
cries OF the power OF steam electricity,
the fact that the world l. round. and
the like, to the research OF men, as
being within their power. He also made
u distinction between sin and sins. the
former being the great sin of unhelief,
the latter minor mistakes resulting from
il. Ii the life therefore Is but exposed
to the Light of Life, the salvation of
men is assured.
