The Brattleboro daily reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1913-1955, 1915-08-13

This is the time of year when people in
general and automobilists in particular are
wont to complain about the surface of
Brattleboro's Main street, and to ask
themselves Cor anyone else who happens
to be within hearing) why the town
tried with macadam in various forms
These experiments, by the way, have dem
onstrated beyond a shadow Of doubt that
macadam for Main street isn't worth a
at its height, this fact is constantly in
the public mind, but during the winter it
becomes less obvious and by March meet
ing time it Is so vague a memory that no
discussion and the opportunity to make
a start in the right direction is lost for a
year The Meddler is strongly of the be-
| lief that brick paving is the only kind of
surface that will stand the traffic to which
| Main street is subjected and prove salts
| factory in other ways. The objection to
| any surfacing not in block form Is that
il would soon be spoiled by excavation Ii
all the pipes under Main street were in a
conduit it might be worth while to con
slider asphalt, but as long as they are not
the idea might as well be dismissed at the
outset. Brick paving is neat in appear
ance, easy to keep clean, extremely dur
able and not half so noisy as a great many
folks seem to think In order that the
people of Brattleboro may have time to
consider the ACCESSIBILITY of using it on
Main street The Meddler suggests that the
selectmen or road commissioner secure and
make public an estimate of the cost of lay
ing pavement of this kind from Wells
fountain to Elliot street

The family limousine of the Moores

more laborers will be added as business

June might as well have been alone
for all that she was conscious of the
O'Keefe ministrations. They had been
here, here in these very rooms, Ned,
her father and mother! How she long
ed for them! How she wished they
had found herl And. great food of
love surged up In her. She must see
theml She must go to them at oncel
She must give up this foolish flight for

return to her own people. and be pet

Ned's strong arms. never to leave them
againl She rose with wild impulse
to hurry straight after them, but her
knees bent under her. She had not
known how much this sudden emotion
had taken away her strength. The
Widow O'Keefe pressed her tenderly
back in her chair, and Sammy held
glass to her lips and spilled trickle
of water on her chin. She smiled at
them both, for she was very fond of
them; then the widow drove Sammy
from the room and put June on the bed,
and took off her little shoes, and drew
the blinds, and left her alone to cry it

And where was Marie?
Marie had just turned the corner of
Oficer Dowd's post when there came

which she remembered with a jump in
her breast.
Suddenly there was a loud yelp of

side the driver, and Bouncer, who new
er left his seat when in the city, was
halfway to the curb in one spring.
With Shrek Marie headed for the
nearest alley, Bouncer barking happily
at her heels.
Five voices yelled for Jerry to stop,
but it was unnecessary. That good
chauffeur had used both brakes, and
the Moores, the Bletherings and Ned
