Highway Planting Plan
Crepe Myrtles Will Be Set out along
the Jefferson Davis Highway

Chapel Hill will be the start
ing point in the plans for beau
tifying the Jefferson Davis high
way (Route No. 75) which
passes from Durham through
here and on to the far South.
A few days ago the members
of a committee of the United
Daughters of the Confederacy,
accompanied by a Lindley land
scape gardeners made an inspec-
tion trip over the road. HThe
gardener staked off places for
the planting of 5000 crepe myr-
ties.
1--WE have decided to go ahead
and spend the $1,000 raised for
this purpose" said Mrs. John
Anderson, of the u. d. G. COM
mittee yesterday, "in the hope
that the property owners along
the route will embrace the idea
and plant trees along their prop
erty. We have received many
evidences of interest on the
part of the owners and believe
that they will give their jealous
cooperation. If they will only
leave borders of trees along the
road, when plowing or clearing
off woods, soon this will be the
most beautiful route in the
state"

Road to Raleigh Closed
Second Tar Treatment Is Being Given
To the Short Route

The road from here to Nelson,
which forms a part of the short
route to Raleigh, is closed to
traffic and will remain closed
about two weeks longer. This is
to permit the state highway
forces to make the second ap-
plication of tar, supplementing
and improving the initial sur
face treatment which the road
received about a year ago.
But we are going to arrange
to let traffic through on days
of football games at Chapel
Hill," said an official of the
highway commission yesterday.
Which means that people COM
ing from Raleigh and other
points east to see the Carolina
State game tomorrow will be
able to use the short cut. The
method of spreading a new tar
surface is such that, when the
demand for passage is urgent,
part of the width of the road
can be left open while the other
part is closed.
Detour signs have been posted
at functions here in Chapel Hill
to inform travellers bound for
the east that they must go the
longer way through Durham.
