 A committee composed of H, S. Meade. president of the Bnsley Real Estate Board. Sam c. King of Ensley and c. L. Hassler and pr. Gale of Pratt City visited MT. Schellici yes terday and made arrangements for signing the deeds. which were signed with the understanding that the city commissioners would pass an ordi- nance authorizing bids for the con- tract of paving this route and as soon as actual work is begun on the road the deeds will be turned over to the city.
 The citizens of Ensley and Pratt City have been working on this pro- position for sometime as this road connecting the two places is exten- sively used and Is badly in need of repairs.
 A standard 2o-feot road will be built, starting from Avenue and Nineteenth street, and will connect up with the Bankhead highway just beyond Pratt City, which will give paved routes from Ensley to Bir- mingham.
