H. C. Compton pulled his asphalt paving maehine onto the
E'-w Springwater hill grade Monday morning. Work as shown is
progressing splendidly with completion possible by June 1.
Our thanks goes to the State Highway Department for getting
on this. We hope our little article of two weeks ago didn’t offend
them for it was meant in fun—anti if we are a little bit inter­
ested in seeing this road completed, we hope the boys will un­
derstand. It is a wonderful piece of road and will be appreci­
ated by all who have occasion to drive it.
