We’re Sailing on Our Way
The State Highway Commission
is expeettng Sherman county to
do but one thing on A p ril 5th—
either to be in position to ask the
Highway Commission to assist in
building state aid roads through
Sherman county or else say plain­
ly that we wish trt build our own
roads in our own way and where
we please. After A p ril 5 U w ill
be too late for another chance to
decide,this question. The state
highway commission has not an
overabundance of funds—when
the amount of roads to be built
are. considered — and Sherman
county decides on A p ril 5th wheth­
er we want state aid roads or not.
Now is the time to secure funds
from the state. At a later date
the money w ill be appropriated
to other road project! and we will
only have our own funds. It it •
