Finish The Job
The authorities should most GER
tainly complete the undertaking
started several months ago in the
business section. The widening of
Union street, south of the bridge was
most worthy project and received
the cooperation of the merchants on
the west side of the street. They
relaid their sidewalks to conform
with the curb line of the new thea
tire, but refused TO remove land
rightly sol the sheds fronting their
business places unless the sheds on
the east side of the street were re-
moved. The removal of the latter
sheds should be done at once in or
der that safe driving may be assuF-
ed, because of the enlarged parking
place. At present this section pre-
and a menace to the safety of pedes-
trians. Why not finish the job?

erected several new buildings in SUI
burban Milton during the spring and
Those completed and now

dence by Edgar Warrington.
