The Board Of Supervisors Did Its Best

For the benefit of those who NAV
not understand why the session of the
Board of Supervisors last week was
continued thru Friday, The Sentinel de-
sires to say in behalf of that BODY
that it was nc fault of the Board that
the session was prolonged. The ECU
lar business of the Board was concluded
on Tuesday and the time after that was
consumed in hearing those who came
before the Board in regard to the build
ing OF permanent highways. 1t was a
very important matter, one in which
the whole county is vitality interested
and the Board could not affoE to rush
matters without due elaboration. Be-
fore the session was concluded the
Board took one of the most important
steps forward that has ever been taken
IN h history of the county and the re-
suits amply justify whatever extra
time was given to the grave matters
before the Board.
