RECORD YEAR FOR
CONCRETE WALKS
Over S23,900 Spent for This Type OF
improvement In Rock Island
During 1915.
MOST BY PRIVATE CONTRACT
Present Administration Active for Ret
terments and Is Largely Respons-
lille for Fine Showing.

The closing year is unprecedented
for new concrete sidewalks laid. City
Engineer Wallace Treichler estimates
that $23, 52G.54 has been expended by
Rock Island people in the construction
OF walks and that 192.440.5 square feet
Of concrete has been laid for this type
Of improvement.
The bulk Of the walks were in
stalled by private contract on order of
the city council. There were four
projects in which the city, through the
board OF SOCIAL Improvements, con-
siructed the walks and assessed the
property owners.
Among the first steps of the present
administration was the order to prop
erty owners to install concrete side
walks at places where they were most
needed. The activity of the council was
not ceutered in any one section of the
city, but an ordinance which included
improvements in all parts was passed
and brought excellent results. AS soon
as the property owners discovered the
sincerity of the councils demand the
majority took immediate steps to have
the work done, and only four projects
were necessitated through city war
rants.
