GOOD ROADS I would like to s,lbmit the following to the consideration of those who •win spend, on behalf of the town, the $10,000 sanctioned by' the ratepayers last Monday to beexpended on the streets of Clinton. • The roads need making good, and the sooner the work isdone the better, There is none too much time between now and Fall to do what is required. There is no such heavy traffic on our Streets, nor will there be for •some years to come, as to necessitate paved roads or even macadam: " Either • or both are very nice, but are not a necessity. ' Eighteen inches of good gravel in the centre, going off to'nothing at the sides, and that well and solidly rolled House • to Rent: OnbPrincess St-, west, formerly occu- pied ccu p'ld y Collyer.• Stone Sellar, bard andseoftwater, ;all Modern convenienoas, ApplytoA.RTH.iIR.CAN.CELON .- .... tf. By -Law No. 4, Goderich Tp. (Ammended) D° you ever find when read- ing at night that the dif ferent letter run into one an- other and confuse you ? If so, you should consult us and have your' eyes examined at once, We can make reading a .domfort and pleasure to you,, with properly -fitted glasses. A. J. Grig Jeweler and Optician, Issuer of Marriage Licenses down with a steam roller, will give us all we need. This has never been tried. I urge it is worth trying. It must be remembered, that no matter what kind of road is made, paying, macadam, or gravel, they must be repaired each year, and kept in good repair,, or their usefulness is nullified. The goad piece of macadam laid two years ago is test spoiling, because once laid it was .left to take care of itself. Our cement sidewalks ought to be patched up occasionally, but they are not. Nonrepairing isa great scource of ultimate loss. Tenders should be advertised for deliveing the gravel on the streets at so much per cord, or the stone if mac- adam be decided upon, and the whole work pushed 'forward to its completion as quickly as possible, Purely local work performed in the same way as the macadamizing two years ago will end in a perfunctory dilatoriness that will be suicidal, and will not carry out the wisher of the ratepayers as ex- pressed by ballot.
