The Board of Works yesterday afternoon appointed W. Noonan and W. N. Sinn, graduates of ' Queen's science school, to assist City Engineer McClelland in road construction and other street work this spring. Mr. MeCleliand "is in ill<heaith and re- quired {o take a further rest. As his former assistant, Howard Dick, is still in England with the Canad- ian, troops, immediate assistance has to be provided so that the season's work may be gone ahead with under Mr. McClelland's direction. The engineer submitted to the Board of Works an estimate of the cost of repairing Princess street from Division to Alfred. It is impossible this year to put a permanent pave- ment on that roadway, as the streef railway company cannot afford to re- place its old rails with heavier ones, which must be dome before an ex- pensive pavement is laid. It will cost nearly $7,000 to repair the road and put a tarvia treatment on it so it will last five or six years. Ald. iitton was rather dubious over the suggestion that such a large amount should be taken from the committeé's appropriation and expend it on J REAL Facts!

The frost got into it and spoil- ed it. In view of the fact that the owners were charged for the road during the past eight or ten years he thought they were entitled to a new one now without cost. Neo de- cision was reached ms to the kind of road repairs that would be made ---~whether the surface would be of tarvia or asphalt.
