Good Pathmasters To the Editor of the STAR: Dear Sir--It has been on my mind for some time to write a word of com mendation that is due J . very good pathmasters that Ww blessed with in Reach Township. hey are Messrs, W. [. Cook, . Isaac Vernon, and Thos Beare. There are likely a number of others with whose work I am not so well acquainted. The t men I have mentioned take a pride in their work, Br on Beare has no spite against the autos, He says he likes to see them slide by without a bump. You can often see him out with shovel and rake, smoothing the road to Utica. None of these men believe it is allowable to let ruts and . holes deyelop in the road.

Farmers have paid as high as : 1$2.00 a day for labor, and a man team earned anywhere from $3. $4.00 a day. oe ! Another mistake that was made time, to my notion, was the ap ment of too many overseers with many different ideas as to how should be built, 5 There are proper methods of for all kinds of roads, and th the methods that should be and adopted.
