The workmcn are cutting tho asphalt in various spots where , the pavement has been broken and these holes will be filled in with Iasphalt either this morning or early this afternoon.
 The condition Of the main thor oughfares through the town have | been a source Of comment by many Itownspeople and passing autoistS and it is a source of qualification 10 witness the early start made in the Ircpairing work.

 A suggestion has been made that Inow that the beautiful shade trees | have been taken down around the lot, that the town officials see 10 it Ithat others arc planted in a row along the sidewalks so that in years 10 come, they will fill in the space that looks so bare now.
