It was a drive of intense interest to realize that we "really had six miles of the much discusséd highway actual- ly completed. Port Perry is to be congratulated in having the first six mile stretch ot No. 7A Highway, recently taken over by the Provincial Government, hard surfaced, with good wide shoulders and cable wire fences in several places to make the road safe. 2 This No. TA Highway, know, is a section of the Provincial Highway running across the country from Orangeville on the west, through Port Perry, crossing ¥ ake Scugog and the Townships of Cart®nght and Cavan; and three milés directly east of the village of Cavanville joining No. 98 Highway, from there on to Peter- boro, Smiths Falls and Ottawa. The people of Port Perry who have not already dohe so, should drive over this splendid, smooth highway, which in the opinion of the writer of this letter will do more to help the busi- years.
