     road bond fund8 for improvement of oity streets

             It will be noted thkt these deolaions  restrict  a
oounty’s jurisdiotlon    over the streets of an lnoorporated

rlKht to expend county funds for the improvement of such
;o&,     am though oonstltutlng    a part of a olty thorough-
     .
