Street Being Improved

A large crew of men is working on
G street. Within a very short time
it will be completed, making a SPLEEN
did highway from Braethorn intersec-
tion as far as the home of Mrs. Eliza
beth Talson. We wonder if property
owners along this street realize the
value of this great improvement to
their properties.
The Ill of the Community
Mrs. Eugene Comerford is confined
to her home with an attack Of pleu-
risy.
Mrs. C. E. Hardesty, wife of Mayor
Hardesty, of Loeb Lynn, shows
slight improvement. Mrs. Hardesty
has been i'll for very long time and
we are glad to report this progress.
Mrs. Mary Russell, who has been
quite i'll, is somewhat improved at this
time. Mrs. Bussell's condition has
been giving her friends great deal
of concern and it is with pleasure we
report the improvement in her health.
Mrs. Ella A. Anderson, wife of Rev.
Anderson, is able to be up after an
illness Of several weeks.
Miss Doris Jane Hipsley, daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. John Hipsley, entered
hospital in Baltimore on Monday
for observation and possibly an opera
ton later. Mr.. and Mrs. Lester Yut-
~, of Crellin, motored to Baltimore
with the patient and her mother, Mrs.
Hipsley. DR.. Bennett, the eminent
surgeon of Baltimore, will have per-
sonal care of the case. The legion of
friends of Miss Hipsley are wishing
for her a speedy recovery.
The young daughter Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Thomas Compton, who has been
seriously i'll following a shedding ac-
cident some weeks ago, is improving
and was brought to her home here on
Wednesday by her uncle, Hervey Bit
1ler. She has been patient in Memoir
ial Hospital, Cumberland, since the
accident which befel her.
The condition of Mr. E. Carl Frame
remains about the same.
Sidewalk Conditions
We heartily agree with others of
the Park regarding the condition of
the sidewalks in this community. Ger
tainly they are the worlds worst"
Citing the one near the Gibson store
was possibly the best example, though
we can think of several others equally
as h;,d
Just what the town can oabout it
we do not know, but feel sure the Of
fcials will do something. This body of
men are trying hard to make the town
what it should be and we have feel
ing that given time they will do much
toward making this an ideal commun-
ity.
We have a splendid Mayor and a
frst-class Council. Unfortunately
they came into office just at time
when the depression began to be felt
and so were handicapped from the
start. We have great faith in them
and know that in a reasonable length
of time they will have things the
way they should be and the way all
residents desire them, so let's be toll
Grant.
