The strip of Hassam paving from
Appleton street to the south line of the
fire station Including one side and the
car track. was thrown open to travel
Tuesday morning and it was taken
full advantage Of by the people. The
little strip between crosswalks in the
square was dug up during the day
Tuesday and as result Elm and Cen
ter streets were closed, although it was
possible by swinging up onto the side
walk to get from Elm to Center street.
The remainder Of the east side will be
opened Wednesday morning and when
it is Elm street will be close and it will
be necessary for people coming down
Main street to go across Getchell and
down College avenue. This will also
open up Union street which has been
closed for over a week. Everyone who
rode over the new road expressed
themselves as being delighted with it.
and the teamsters said that it seemed
to be good for the horses. while those
who lived along the street were pleas
ed at the lack of noise made by the
teams.
