COUNTY ROAD CURVES

Last Saturday afternoon the writer
in company with Tom Conlin OF the
Crystal Falls Diamond Drill, was in
yited by A. j Pohiand, president OF
the Scalcucci Provision & Packing Co,
to inspect the company's plant. The
plant Is located about half mile
southwest OF tho junction OF the
Alvin-Iro River road with the Cloy
erland Ttall The writer this being
his first visit since the grading OF this
road was started several months ago,
could not help but notice the very
sharp curve made az this junction
point, and called the attention of his
companions TO IL. Ii seemed so un-
necessary and nncalled for that we
could not help but comment on Il. We
are not a road engineer and Ii may
have been necessary TO have made
this sharp curve. but We doubt Il like
everything, and especially as there
was so much opportunity for much
safer and better looking curve As IL
Is now. in order 70 protect the county
from damage suits II will be neces-
sary to build fence on the west side
Of this curve. thereby marrlng the
beauty that might have otherwise
been gained without the use Of any
fence.
Sharp curves are not conductive to
safety in automobile travelling. and
are not generally made unless absol-
utely necessary, and IN this instance
We cannot see that Il was absolutely
nccossary for this sharp curve, n q
township commissioner had built this
curve We would not have been any
more surprised, but when county
road engineer stands for II then IT'S
rather surprising Iron Rlver-Stam-
