cessful in meeting the appreciation of
the people, will result in a paved
roadway through the entire city, reach
ing from the Aberdeen line to the
Little Hoquiam bridge. The East
Side improvement club is at the
head of the movement and has called
a meeting for tonight to further dis
cuss the matter.
The route to be followed Is on
Simpson avenue from the Aberdeen
line to the proposed bridge. After
crossing the bridge there will be
three blocks Of paving to connect
with the street paving at Ninth
street. From that point the streets
are paved to the point where Eklund
avenue joins Lincoln. The paving
will then be continued from that
point along Lincoln and Perry ave-
nues to the Little Hoquiam bridge.
It is proposed to build this street
20 feet wide, with. curbs and catch
basins. There will be 1900 lineal
feet necessary and the estimated cost
Of such roadway, constructed of con.
crete and asphalt, is in the neighbor-
hood of $4,000. 1t is thought that
20 feet in the outlying districts will
be ample width for all purposes for
a number Of years to come.
