but in the meantime the Garden
City has many bad scars, for
hardly a street has escaped the
turning up process that has been
necessary to carry on some i'm
pOTtant work. Now Lake Ave
nue. is having its turn, and resi-

the work with interest and look

boulevard will be right at their

that improved the disposition Of
the traveller like a smooth sur
face TO ride upon. So the real
