MERIDIAN PEOPLE TALK
FOR GOOD ROADS

About 100 representative citizens of
the community were at the Meridian
theatre Monday evening to consider
the condition of the muddy roads and
plan for measures of relief. It was
explained that this is an unusual
season and that the roads are worse
than usual Som said the roads near
neighboring towns are no better than
here and that the prize mud hole is
sain front of the condensery near the
junction city.
Various suggestions were made as
to the repair of the highway through
Meridian. This highway has been un-
even since its construction. Filling
in with dirt or gravel does not rem
edy the chuck holes which are of
no benefit to anyone except the auto
repair men. The village board were
present and offered to cooperate as
much as possible, considering there
is hui little money on nand to do any
thing but to drag the highway. This
dragging was commenced by the
street commissioner Tuesday and will
help. The fixing of the highway,
however, is an engineers big job and
will cost some money How to raise
this money was not settled at the
meeting but all We're satisfied that
eventually Meridian will need to take
the bull by the horns.
The meeting resulted in a healthy
exchange of views and benefit will
result from sucn a gathering OF our
people.

"Is he safe at home under lock and

''Do you always give him his daily

Does he work each day for his

or harm, while faithfully watching
the kids and the house. and all of the
