Another year should not pass with out a good macadam road from the paved treet to the park. CLEANLINESS. most ot the meetings of th'9 assembly you should do so for it is a treat not obtainable In any city in Eastern Ore gon except La Grande. ' ' ISI'ROVING DEPARTMENT. HEALTH OFFICER COMING. Sidewalk Shared Down to Allow Carts ! Board cf ealtbi A ROAD TO THE PARK. One of the most needful Improve menta yet to be made In La Grande is a macadam highway to Ue city park. Most of this distance is within th. city limits. It Is impossible with the amount of travtl to keep these dirt streets in good condition. Con stant use has worn holes in the wagon track and repairs are hard to make while traffic U heavy. Automobile Jump and bound over the road, giving one almost seasickness. Think ot the value ot a macadam roadway ; to the beauty ; spot ot La Grande. The satisfaction will be something besides the value of the lmorovement to property located along the route. It North Ptr street will gef in snd claim th roadway to . the park by insisting on a macadam street It will be a good stroke of Judg ment on t'ae part of those owning property along that street, for some street In that part of the city Is going to claim the park hlghwey which will when Improved, carry all the travel " to roafter if It is tw? Mo ks out of the That old adage, "cleanliness is akin to GodllnesB" should be more impressed upon every property owner in La Grnncr? Repeated orders from the city officials to clean up alleys and backwards haa failed to bring a unani mous action along that line and today there are sonve. bad looking corners even In tlvj business district. Tolera tion of filth means shaking handg with sickness and disease. Cn the other hand cleanliness .means lighting off scourges and pestilence. Which la the cheaper and better to ckan up .the city in spick, span shape or see the yellow flag floating iu several locali ties telling of contagious disease? ' Eternal vigilance In a city, either large or small, la the price of good health nnd happy homes. , La Grande wants to be known as tha "healthy city"' as -well as the "pay roll city' and for that reason, as well as for .the safety of our people, let each cltlzf n show some pride In keeping his prem ises clean and sanitary. Do not wait for an official to come around with his last call and a threat of prosecution before you act. Tlvre Is too much of that. Be loyal to your community and get In and do a few little things wthout being paid or threatened.
