More About Winter Street.
To The Herald:
Your correspondent of yesterday re
garding (he tearing up and general
excavation of Winter Street, Monte
Ha no. seems to have forgotten the fact
that the city employes are In no way
to blame for keeping the automo
biles, vehicles, etc., from going on the
Street, that Is If any real Improve
ment is to he made. We must pay
Ihe prlee of temporary Inconvenience
when we wish to get a real improve
ment.
For Instance, It was very bad on
Twelfth Street when that street was
being paved from Hroad to Iwlggs,
but now it Is by far the best street
In the city. When Broad Street Is
paved again It will he torn up a great
deal and people will he Inconvenienced
but why kick about It? I, for one, ap
preciate the great amount of work the
citv lias done for the residents of the
lllil since we were annexed and I do
not think that there should lie any
kicking In this Instance It docs the
streets and drains department an In
justice.
WINTER ST RESIDENT.
Thanks to Strset Railway Co.
To The Herald:
I wish to express my sincere thanks
to the ' Augusta - Aiken Railway K
Electric Corporation for Its prompt
action on the matter of additional car
service for the hcliool children In Ihe
mornings, as advocated by me In your
"Speaking the Public Mind” column,
In Monday's issue.
I am sure that In expressing my
appreciation for what the street rail
way company has done, I ant also
speaking the public mind There la
doubtless not a patron of the line from
The Hill who la not Just ns grateful
as I am.
Allow me n word or two more to
say I hilt it seriously congealed condi
tion on Ihe at reel cars has been re
lieved by Just one additional car en
circling Ihe bell In Ihe morning al
just Ihe right lime liettveeu 7:45 mid
(1:45 a. ill.
It was suggested by me In the card
you kindly published to have addition
al car service In the afternoon ns well
s* the morning- There Is no oxtru
service ns yet In Ihe afternoon. How
ever, I recognise the fact that the cars
are not as crowded In the afternoon,
because there are not so many peo
ple returning from work for lunch.
Everyone working in Iho city comes
down In the morning, of course, and
this accounts for the former conges
tion caused by the school children as
additional passengers at this hour.
The extra service has been added,
and added promptly, al the time of
the day when 1 am certain It la most
Heeded. Again 1 thank the atrect
railway company anil Its manage
ment.
A HILL RESIDENT,
