Weri.••••••••••••••••• — Continued from page 4 Mayor's comments appear most unfortunate, .although perhaps the chief proponent of the Good Roads convention will have something to say on the matter when he returns from his Florida vacation. * * To conclude this column, we have a poem pointed out to us by Mrs. Jermyn from the Municipal World. It is as follows: They took a few old bricks And they took a little tar, With various ingredients Imported from afar, They hammered it and rolled it And then they went away; They said they had a pavement That would last for many a day. But they came with picks and smote it To lay a water main; And then they Palled the workmen To put it back again. To run a railway cable They took it up some more, And then they put it back again Just where it was before. They took it up for conduits To run the telephone, And then they put it back again As hard as any stone. They took it up for wires To feed the lectric light, And then they put it back again, Which was no more than right. Oh, the pavement's full of furrows, There are patches everywhere; VAARAMMitiglieff ON 00441/7r ROODS Henson and district news CORRESPONDENTS Mrs. Maude Haddon, Phone 262-2002 Mrs, Bertha MacGregor/ Phone 262-202$ March 12, 1979 n Page $ You'd like to ride upon it put it's seldom that you dare. It's a ver handsome pavement, A credit to the .townt But they're always digging of it up Or putting of it down, The unusual aspect of that poem is the fact it was published m The Montreal Star on May 9, 1914, in connection. with the founding of the Canadian Good Roads Association, Apparently the Association hasn't been able to do anything about the situation described in the poem, because it still pertains to most communities these days. In fact, by the look of a great portion of the Main St. sidewalk, Exeter residents will be experiencing such a condition.
