The new board is composed of pro-
gressive citizens and the people are
expecting great improvements to
our streets during their administra-
tiOn.
Now that Engineer Buck has rec
commended that improved roads be
built this year from Greenwood to
Ellendale, from Ellendale to Milton,
and from MilfOrd-Five Points road to
Slaughter Beach, it would be well
for the citizen who favor these i'm
provements to get busy and work
increasingly until these much need
ed highways are an assured fact. If
all interested will pull together and
make their wants known to the
State Highway Commission in every
way possible, success will crown
their efforts. Let's get busy.

AJhe blizzard of last Saturday
some of our citizens very
.
a hustle to get the needed supplies,
which were soon obtained and there
was no suffering whatever The
heavy drifts of snow RETARDED travel
for sometime.
Now that the legislature is in ses-
sion those of our citizens who have
bills to present, better get them
ready at once. Nothing like being on
time.
The wet and dry question it seems
will not down. The writer wonders
if this much discussed subject will
ever be settled to the satisfaction of
either side. Already blns have been
introduced in both Senate and House
to repeal the Loose and Klair laws.
