gins to show more and more the effects
incident to weathering, the people OF
Barre are wondering if the arch is to
/ be taken down before winter, as it was
originally planned when the memorial
was erected last July. The paint on
the woodwork is nearly obliterated and
the other parts of the once handsome
structure are becoming dingy with dust
and other fragments hurled about by
the wind; so that many people feel the
arch will become an eyesore against
the winter background of white if il
remains in its present appearance, and
| they figure, too, that it would be i'm
practicable to refinish and retouch the
arch at this time Moreover, Che arch
/ has served its purpose, they believe
and served it well, 50 it should be tax
en- down before it becomes an eyesore
