Tho more the people thought about a big wide street so paved aa to be cleaned easily, and filled with cotton and country wagons, the more they Inclined to that Idea. They thought It would conform much to the Idea of the Civic Federation of ladles, whose main object after all was to have a clean town. With the dirt parks It Is impossible to keep the placo clean. In his talk before tho council, Mr. Thos. It. Ayer said that when he and a delegation of tho people on Poplar street appeared before the mayor In the morning to ask him to suspend the work of plowing up the park until they could get before council at night, ho left the mayor under the Impression that he was acting from a selfish mo tive. ha being a tenant on that street.

This showed that the people other than those on Poplar street wanted the parka to remain as they were, open to the farmer. In his talk before the council. Mr. (Ben L.

It eeemed that the auggeetlon made by Mr. Henry Home met with the most famr. This waa remove the curbing marking the parks and to pave the en tire street, from sidewalk to sidewalk, in Belgian blocks aa the roadways are now paved. •Speaking of beautiful green grass lawns." said Capt. Bob Haslehurst. "tha view that would meet the gate of the man tn the bue coming up from the union depot would be on# that he would not see In any other city In the world—a wide street, wider than any other city atreet all filled with cotton, the staple of the country, and hun- drede of country wagons, showing whst a market Macon Is. It would present a picture of active trade that would be the moat pleasing sight a man would care to see." I data’t care what they pave It In, Belgian blocks or cement. )u*t so they don't five ua any gmss. The farmer would be in a bad fix then sure enough.
