Now that travelling is becoming more dangerous than of yore from the. many new devices for frightening horses. every effort should be made to have the roads as clean and level as possible. It would not be out of place for the council.to compel all road builders to pile the stones that come from grading or cutting hills in a safe place instead of merely rolling them back out of the way. and there is many a murmur by citizens. teamsters especially. over the custom of hauling rubbish from the bickyard. tin cans. boxes. soap bar- rels. stovepipes and everything imag- inable by the waggon load and throw- ing it beside the read just north of the village. and of the corporation, of Course. 0WWXWWWWWW; § Large Sales Smali Profits é Your Lake Breezes correspondent seems to be taking a. partial i'est for the past, few weeks.
