LI__L __I_g1 A meeting ot'Peneta.ng and Midland men was held recently tovtake steps to secure a permanent highway from Bar- rie up that would serve both towns. It was pointedout by C._E. Wright,M.P.P. that the Government was prepared to undertake substantial work in con- nection with suchiroad as soon as the` two towns could get together and de-_ cide upon the matter. There is no doubt that the necessity exists for a new road linking up Penetang and Midland with the Provincial Highway at Crown Hill and it is to the interest of both towns that some understanding be ar- rived at promptly in order that the work may go on. We are so close to- gether that `what is good for one is] I I good for the other and our interests are practically identical. The main object is to get agood highway up to Georgian Bay in this locality and we feel sure. it is the urgent desire of the people! here to unite with Penetang in order that the project may be accomplished as quickly as possible.--Midland Argus} | T_ IWOULD IMPROVE PENETANG RD.
