TEE LAST CORNER OFF.
The street committee has been
rounding off the corners of the
streets, where they jutted out at the
irregular angles along the main
street and have' this week taken off
those at Dartliff's corner. No doubt
this leaves much more room for driv-
ers of vehicles but these points, un-
til one becomes accustomed to them,
have a very chopped -off appearance.
Time works many changes. When
the' present cement walks were 'put
downy' about the beginning of the
Present century, at all the cross
streets, where an angle appeared, the
walk e were extended out to form o
graceful, rounded point. This made
for a shottdr crossing and until cars
become 'so plentiful they were not
found to inteilere With traffic at all.
But now we 'must give the traffic,
plenty of room, so off- come the
points, and those on foot must achieve
the longer crossing as best they may,
with'an -eye looking:, both ways to
avoid getting, caught under a wheel.
