A BUSY STREET.

l love a busy, bustling town. One
day they put the paving down, all
nice and smooth and sweet; and then
next day they tear it up again. From
one end of the street back to its 9TH
err end. that's what they do; and then
they get it smooth and flat, and give
it its last loving pat. and then there
is a shrek of fear m from the
city engineer-he has mislaid his
monkey wrench And instantly they
start a trench and toss the pavement
all around until that monkey wrench
is found. And then they lamp the
dirt in tight, and get 1t leveled off
all right, and surface it with hard
concrete. and make a street as is a
street by putting sand and bisk on
that, and the steam roller makes 1t
flat. Then they pierce that pave
ment through and through to lay a
line of pipe or two! Then they re-
pair that, and it lies smoothly be-
meath the summer skies for, ii may
be, a day or two; then there's a
sewer to run through! Now, when
some one you chance to meet talks
OF the busy city street." that's what
he means, in this mans town-the
street that's getting up and down and
rolling over that way, till it just
seems like 1t can't lie still.-Judd
