:. A CHERT ROAD.

In all the town during the bad
weather this winter, there has been
one piece OF good road and that is
from DR. Neunfer's residence to the
Rosenberg's on Main street. This
strip has been In good condition
though getting all the travel from
Main and Wardlaw streets. The rea.
son is that it has been filled in with
ebert from the Klugh place. This
ebert costs about ten cents load
and certainly, in the long run, would
be better on the roads than so much
sand.
