CITY COUNCIL OF LA GRAPE. Cl.LGON. By C. M. HUMPHREYS, Recorder o fthe City of La Grcjndo, Oicgon. 6-22-10t ISICTOIL lie Pine ACTIVE WOKK PISHED ... BAPIDLY TO CONCLUSION Employees of Warren Construction Co. on Oronndj This weak """aw A wonderful transformation Is tak ing place In the appearance of the southern part of La Grande. For the pasi iwo weeks Washington avenue has been the scene of great activity in the work of Improving this section of the city and the concrete curbs, laid by the Bmlth Construction co. have already been completed. Early this spring the main water main was laid and storm sewers are being In stalled this week preparatory to lay ing the blthulltlc paving specified in the contract with the Warren Con- structon co. In many places the san- lttary sewer system has been com pleted and although the property ben efited by these improvements have been bonded to cover the costs, yet the owners have cheerfully under ta ken to carry this expense knowing that the value of their holdings was being greatly Increased thereby. There Is a large force of men at work grading filling and levelling the street this week, and the actual work of paving will be pushed to cuuclusion with all speed. In a very short time this fine avenue, which is really cue coming street of La Grande rill In the next tvo years at the laiout will be the main thoroughfare Into town from inn country road, will bo pnve.l with aarl nurlace paving, all rlii way from u. avenue at the head of the Connordale addition. The La Grande Deveij)i:m:ut Co. have am'.n.nce.l their Intention of opening i.u thin wide at') k'tel street down past thir property ail the way througa M tne county road, affording Immediate ac cess to the city from Washington avenue. Wert on levelling aui grad ing this street past the Conuordnle addition will ' be begun before the work of paving it with asphait to tbe head of this property is completed. People coming from the valley with farm produce, automobiles, horsemen and pedestrians will welcome the opening of Washington avenue aa it has been practically Impassable in winter owing to the deep mud and during the summer months has been choked with weeds and debris, and, in addition, has been closed beyond L. avenue. It la expected that a large part of the traffic that now enters and passes up Adams avenue will be diverted to Washington avenue tn or der to ttake advantage of the hard- surface paving. Property values have already increased very greatly and with the completion of these Improve ments will certainly take another up ward leap. This part of town appears to be the coming residence district as The Spirella Corset Yon cannot obtain from any stock corset the classy lines, style, taste and absolutely per fect fit to be had In a A type for every figure.
