MAIN STREET STILL NARROW.
selectmen Have Not Yet Started Work
on Needed Improvement.

Although several months have
elapsed since the town acquired the
title TO the land needed to widen Main
street in front of the buildings for
merly known as the Ray and Judge
blocks, no definite work has been be-
gun to utilize it. The deal for the
land was closed late last fall, so it was
not practical to start the work of
building cement retaining wall need
ed in the work Of widening the street
Mt this point at that time, and it was
not praetica to start the work of
widening the street would be begun
as soon as the weather conditions
would permit this spring, says the cor
respondent of the Springfield Republi-
can.
Perhaps this idea did not come from
any official statement but it was ex.
pectcd that the town fathers would be
able TO make the necessary arrange
mcnts during the winter SO that there
would not be any delay. Spring has
passed and il is midsummer and thus
far there are no indications that the
narrow street ON Main street Hill will
be eliminated this year or at least
early enough in the season so that il
can ne used muCH during NHe HedN y
automobile traffic.
In Justice to the local officials it is
urged that quite n portion of the ex
pcusc Of building = wall needed tC
retain the fiji might he saved if il
could Ice built in conjunction with one
needed for the foundation of the build
ing which will he eventually built OF
the site of the old Ray and Judge
buildings. II is understood that the
board Of scloctmcn and Attorney Gen
cral II. G.. Barber have had confer
cnccs on the matter of building sucl
wall, but rs yet no announcement
has bean made that a definite ar
rangcmcnt has been reached.
