It is improbable that the expert
was suggested to the state highway
department by local brick manufac-
eerers, will be tried in this town,
nothing having been heard from the
brick makers regarding the matter
since last year. Furthermore, it is
understood, that Worthington ridge

which the highway authorities were
Won't to depict to the residents last
season when complaints concerning
the deplorable condition of the road
way were thickest.
About week ago the much FOOTED
improvement to that part of the state
highway extending through the CEN
ter of the Worthington district was
made. 1t consisted of the filling in of
the almost unsightly holes and other
depressions in the roadway with a
composition of small stone and tar,
thus rendering the surface of the
roadway more regular than 1t has
been for a long period. However,
with the hundreds of automobiles,
both heavy and light, passing over
the roadway daily, some OF them at
very excessive speed, 1t stands
to reason that the worn roadbed must
suffer deterioration Already, in fact,
a few of the very familiar holes are
beginning to reappear.
! Every cloud has a silver lining,
however, and even this is not an eX-
kteption. Although the local automo-
EbiIists must be subjected to being
*ielnced about in their cars as they
pass down the ridge" they will at
