COUNTY ROADS
AOA~ :
NEED REPAIRS
=.
Complaints Filed with Com
mercial Club-Improve-
ments Contemplated.

Members Of the good roads COM
mittee Of the Grand Forks CONNER
cial club held an important meeting
Thursday afternoon, when com.
plants, made on the condition OF
roads in this county were brought up
for consideration.
Assistant Postmaster James Dunlap
met with the committee and pointed
out the fact that II the rural free de-
livery service is to be promoted, more
attention must be given to certain
portions Of the rural highways which
have been sorely neglected.
1t was pointed out that the Grand
Forks county board of commissioners
has done all: in its power to improve
the roads but its m%eritorious efforts
have not been sufficient to repair all
Of the roads, and that cooperation
must be given to place these routes
in the proper condition.
The good roads committee has TAX
en- these complaints under adviser
ment and will endeavor to reach some
solution to the problem in the very
near future. The roads are not in
real bad condition and the majority
of stretches merely need dragging.
The fact that the government
threatens the discontinuance Of mail
routes in certain sections Of the coun-
try, during the summer months,
which is in harmony with the econ
omic steps taken in the recent chang
es made in the railway mail service. II
has become imperative for immediate
improvement Of roads on which car
riers are forced to travel. It Is au-
thoritatively stated that only the
routes. where the roads are consider
ed too poor for travel. will be affect
ed by the abandonment of service.

had won second place, Bacon ex-
planned that these contests were not
official and were merely preliminary

officers must participate.

Shortly before noon today Grand
Forks new motor driven fire truck
made it's debut in answering alarms,
when a dash was made to SIS Inter-
national avenue. where a small blaze
in the second story Of the Albert Mel
son bake shop, threatened to do con-
siderable damage. A damage Of ap-
proximately $25 resulted. The blaze
was extinguished with chemicals.
The new truck. driven by a COM
pany demonstration, established a new
record for speed in answering alarms
in Grand oFrks. The firemen who
responded failed to keep time on the
run. but pedestrians who were forced
to scatter from the path Of the mon
ster truck, are willing to believe that
all previous records were shattered.

stocks, principally rails, were again ex.

OF yesterdays trading, rallied moder.
ately on the more restrained operations
o fthe mid-season and fell away again
toward the active close.
Much Of the temporary improve.
ment, which favored war stocks and
specialties more than standard issues,
was ascribed to short covering. that
faction evidently deeming 1t advisable
to take profits aud otherwise reduce
commitments over the approaching
holidays. Renewal of pressure in the
last hour was doubtless impelled,
however, by the rather meager buy.
ing power or lack Of public inquiry.
