Want Road Improved.

and asked for the improvement of
about half mile stretch of road con-
Meeting Frederick and Montgomery

the entire cost of the improvement
would be about $3.50
The commissioners seemed to be i'm
pressed with the proposition. The
members of the delegation reported
that the property owners in that sec
tion had volunteered to assist in MAX
ing the repairs.
The committee volunteered to raise
so per cent of the cost of the work
or the part that is to be improved in
Montgomery county. No action was
taken. Those in the delegation; Presi-
dent j. NJ. Dronenburg, Noah e. Ora
mer, Secretary, Lloyd T. MacGill and
David Lowenstein.
The big hill on the Frederick-Jef-
ferson highway, which was the cause
of so much complaint from adjoining
property owners has been cut from
a II to an per cent grade. The OBJ
jectors had asked the State Road
Commissioner for reduction to about
a 6 per cent grade. The work on this
highway is rapidly being rushed to
finish. The contractor, the NJ ]. Grove
Lime company of Lime Kiln, this
county. began the work last fall, but
