The surveyors or the, state nlghWay department staked out portion of | the roads leading northerly, southerly and westerly from the center of the | green, which they had recently sur veyed, finishing their work last Sat | urday. There is considerable diSSatiS- | faction expressed by some of the resi- | dents on. these roads regarding the | survey, as it has moved the location of | the roads over on their lawns In the | case of Raymond Clarke it was moved | "A feet, which would completely ruin | the lawn. When the survey was made 1 last fall MT. Clarke was willing to allow 10 feet. but the present survey would place the road in the middle of his lawn.
