Tn In Arms
about Street

Residents of Eighth street are up
in arms as result of the manner in
which the tarvia has been applied to
the thoroughfare in front of their
homes They state that the loose dust
and dirt was swept to the extreme
sides of the road, and the tar product
applied down the center of the high
way, with the result that when the au-
tomobiles come along they naturally
avoid the tar as much as possible, and
raise a cloud of dust by rushing
through the piles of dirt at the road
sides, much to the discomfort of those
living near by.
