great pleasure to her. At ten

pany and a delicious lunch was ser,

GREAT ROAD IMPROVEMENT
Continued from Page II

ty in road building the past year or so
is due to the excellent engineering
ability of Henry Negstad, of Brook
ings and the county commissioners.
Mr.. Negstad is a Brookings county
product, his father having homestead
ed south of Arlington. Every man
and woman in Brookings county should
be back of Mr.. Negstad and the COM
m~issioners giving them their full sup
port. No additional taxation will be
thrust upon the taxpayers as the re-
suit of the extensive road improve
ment program being carried out in the
county this year. A good share of
thethe road building funds for state
roads is being raised by the tax of
n cent a gallon on gasoline. The
work Of graveling the roads will be
left in charge of Fred Harms and his
crew of men. In the early part of
the summer Mr.. Harms was foreman

state would so back to the good old
days of rutty and almost impossible
roads in order to have the money
which has been spent. No money has
been spent in the county which has
brought a better return in comfort,
satisfaction and saving Of time and
money. Every town and city and
every farm has been the gamer from
the good roads. We have a good
start in road work. Let us continue
and in a few years we can work a
transformation in our roads.
