CLOSING DOWN
Today the loc il Road Com
mission cam]/ will cease ope rat
ions for the season. The approp
riatior. for this work lias been
used up and no more funds aie
forthcoming at present.
While tiie community would
like to see this work carried on
everyone is satisfied that the
pres* nl Summer’s work has used
up the ipprop riation in the most
satisfactory and advantageous
manner possible. The Sourdou
gh Hill road which has been
practically impassible beyond
the three-mile point is now in
such a condition as to make it
passable for automobiles under
the most adverse weather condit
ions. In addition the trail has
been graded from the Nizina
Bridge to Sourdough cabin, all
of which has been accomplished
in the space of a fewT short mon
ths.
McCarthy is indeed apprec
iative of this work both to the
Road Commission and to the
local management.
