The road builders are very busy at Myrtle. The little detour over the track fs an awkward one, and something should be done to do away with the {very sharp turn around the telephone pole at the garage. It will be a great wonder if there is not an accident if | that turn is retained. We regret to hear of the serious {illness of Mrs. Stouffer; but-we 'are pleased to learn that she is getting better.
