Discuss Trunk
Road at Meeting
Board of Trade

A most enthusiastic meeting was
held at the City Building Friday eve
ming when President William X.
Frost and the directors of the Gard
Infer Board of Trade Llet to discuss
matters of importance to the city
The first and most important topic
to be discussed was part of the
trunk line, namely, the state road
from Lewiston through Gardiner to
Rockland. The road is in the process
of construction from Lewiston to
Sabbatus and as proposed will pass
through the towns Of Wales, Mon
mouth, Litchfield, West Gardiner
Gardiner, Randolph. Pittston. North
Whitefield, connecting at Jefferson
with the Augusta road to Rockland.
This road will open UP vast farm
ing country as well as several sum-
mer resorts located upon the lakes
and ponds, and would make very
convenient short cut from the White
Mountains and Poland Spring to the
coast. 1t would also connect at
Gardiner with the Boston boats, also
the boat which runs to the ISLANDS.

ident, Vice President, and Directors
