on Main Street and the pick and shov

then one or two more car-loads of
curbing have been unloaded and laid
on the ground and the ditching has
uiade considerable progress.
The curbing to bo laid is No. 1
granite from I.ithonia, and is the best
grade obtainable. The engineers say
it will last forever, being immune to
cracking and chipping, from the ex

the wheels of vehicles, as would occur
wit h cement or inferior granite curb

the lowering of water mains, laying
