Much Indignation is being expressed
by North side business men at the dis
examination used in the upkeep and
olIlng of the roads in the vicinity of
North topeka One example is that
Of the brickyard road which is kent
nicely oiled, thus offering a silent but
potent invitation for autoists to take
this road, which crosses the river
bridge into Topeka, while the Upde-
gran road. leading into North To-
peka, is left unoiled.
North Topeka citizens feel that no
favor should be shown in the treat
ment OF these roads. but If one is oiled
the other also should be. Discrimiaa-
ton OF this kind is harmful to the
business interests of North Topeka
The first body of an overseas SOL
der to be returned to Topeka is that
of Pvt. Claude E. Redmond of Car
bondale. formerly of North Topeka,
which will arrive in Topeka late this

NJ. 2. Redmond, former residents of
the North side. He was accidentally
killed near Coblentz, Germany, on
January "a, 1919, when an army re-
volver which a fellow soldier was
cleaning was discharged.
Redmond sailed for France in Sep
| TENDER, 1918. and upon. his arrival was
transferred to the Fifth Marines. Sec
ond division. When the armistice
was signed he remained with the army
OF occupation.
