'er1 WWWJVVV Now, while Windsor has many streets of asphalt block, they have also experimented with concrete road- ways, which is a cheap, and, it is claimed, satisfactory roadway. Of course it has its defects, due in a great measure to defective laying, but some of the city ofiicials claim that it is the pavement of the future. A Post representative inspected a stretch of concrete roadway running along Wyandotte-st. from Aylmer Avenue to Wa kerville. It has been down three years. Some of it was in good shape, but stretches of it was in very bad condition. The crown was cracke ployees.

They stretch for mile' after mile on Michigan ave, Woodward ave, and Gratiot road and are clean and sa- nitaxw. A delightfdl run-was made over a. stratc‘n of concrete roadway on Wood- ward avsntxe. This is.a continuation of the main paved street in Detroit and leads to the state fair grounds, Paime-r Park, and several large ceme- teries, through a. rich farming sec- tion.

A delighifal run-was made over a. stratch of c0ncrete roadway on Wood- ward avsntic. This is.a. continuation f the main paved street in Detroit During the sojourn in Windsor the beautiful city of Detroit was seen by auto, and its many beautiful streets inspected. They are constructed of hithulithic, tarlithic, tarvia, sheet asphalt, asphalt block, creosote wood block, etc. One of the city officials very kindly pointed out the merits and demerits of the different mater- ials as he saw them. He expressed surprise when informed of the width of Kent-st. and did not favor the laying of a concreteravement on the thoroughfare. He advised the town to build a boulevard downthe cenâ€" tre of the street, sow it with grass aw" Zesty: fiewcr tes‘zs at different ’ F. In: 0 ravezncnt of asphalt While in Walkerville a visit was made to the handsome new public school, which was visited by a. dele- gate from the Lindsay Board of Edu- cation a few years ago. This is one of the finest educational institutions of its kind in the province- The grounds are beautifully laid out with flower beds. The caretaker informed the Post that the children took such an interest in the school and the surroundings that not a flower was touched, or a. brick defaced or mark- ed in the school. They had been edu- cated into taking an interest in their environment. Among the beautiful models that merited particular attention was a dark red velvet hat, the shape slight- ly drooped around the brim, and rolled high at the right side, and leaving a tan crown of the velvet. On the toplof the brim the velvet is stirred in three headings about an inch apart, while unde; month the- b'rim has: the red ribbon closely box plait- ed, giving it a. very dainty eflect‘.
