now in progress.
County Road Superintendent Henry
Christian is engaged In Improving the
stretch between Smlthvllle and Ander-

The convict gang is divided Into
two squads, one working from the nor
thern end of the city limits. There arc
sixty negroes and eighty mules assign
ed to this work, which will not be
stopped until the highway Is restored
to its former excellent condition, when
was famous throughout the state.
It Is Supt. Christian's idea, and also
the plan of the board, to get this road.

weather sets In.
The fact that the highway will be put

interesting news to tourists throughout
