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.
