A Standard of Wretchedness

1t seems that a certain citizen OF
Bingham, in attempting to tell visit
ing tourist the past summer about a
little used and nearly impossible thor
oughfare in Pleasant Ridge Planta-
ton, remarked that it was about as
bad at its worst as the road from
Skowhegan to East Madison at Its
best. Many who are familiar with
the trail northward from Cold BROOK
will Justify the Bingham mans state
ment. To us, however, it seems like
base and cruel slander-not upon the
East Madison road but against Pleas
ant Ridge.
