Community Club is called for 1880
p. m. on the afternoon of Tuesday.
February 25th at the Hamlin hall.
The topic for discussion will be the
matter of interesting the public Of
ticials in recognizing the Hamlin
Short Route as part of the state
roads that are to be paved. This
section of the highway begins at q
point on the River to River road two
miles across the line in Guthrie
county and again connects with the
River to River road at Elkhorn.
Those who have made a thorough in
vestigation state that IL will short
en- the distance three miles and
eliminate a number of curves and a
great amount of steep grading. be-
sides saving the tax payers some
thing like 100000 in paving.
This is a matter in which every
tax payer should be interested. The
paving of roads across Iowa is bound
to come. II is therefore time to
begin at once to see that the best
and most available route is chosen.
The Hamlin Short Route is nearer
the center of the county and would
in all probability serve greater
number of people. A special invita-
ton is extended to everyone. regard
less OF whether or not you reside on
the proposed route, to attend this
important meeting.
