COLUMBIA

According to a resident or Coventry who was in town last week, the people of that town are not asking Columbia to spend 1000 to put the Parker bridge road in order, as was stated that it would cost, at the recent hearing in town, which amount they claim would build a macadam road with a cement bridge, They say that all that is nec- essary is to put it in condition so that
 it will be passable at all times of the year, which would probably cost only
 about $500. Another person of mature
 years stated that the repairs made to
 the road last year, which it was said cost $16.S5, were the only repairs made
 to it in 50 years. They also state that
 gravel and dirc to repair the road and
 to raise it above high water would be gladly donated and also probably much of the labor.
 The names of several Columbia men who went to the World war do not ap- pear on the tablet attached to the boul- l der erected on the Green by the town. l in honor of the men who went from Columbia. On the other hand it is ! claimed that those whose names were ] not placed on the tablet, while be- | ing Columbia men, enlisted from other | towns were fitted out by them, and | their names appear on their honol rolls It is also objected to, that there is no star by the names of those who 1 died in the service.
