He does propose to regrade the Fancy (Jap road, build a concrete bridge across Lovill's creek, and make a lirst class sand-clay road to the line, all of which would be done preparatory to hard surfacing at a later date. The road ollicials of this state have promised to the V irginia people to meet them at the state line on the Fancy (lap with a good road and this proposition, according to Mr Hanes. still holds good.

"Live Wire Store," WINSTON-SALEM, - - NORTH CAROLINA proposition to our people to do the Pilot Mountain road work first. Along with the road to be built to Pilot Mountain the coun ty of Forsyth proposes to build a hard-surface road from Winston- Salem to the Stokes',county line, leaving about ten miles of sand clay road in Stokes county that will separate the hard-surface roads lending from Mount Airy and Winston Salem. A meeting of the Khvanis iClub of this city was held last ! Thursday night at which these | proposed changes in the road program were discussed at length. Every one still wants to see this section connected with ' the Virginia counties with a bet ter system of roads and it was pointed out to the membership that this is tht* policy also of Mr. j Hanes. and that this would be J carried out at any time the Vir- J erinia authorities want to begin ! their road work in our direction. 1 The Clul) passed a resolution endorsing the proposed changes. It is the plan of Commissioner, Hanes to get the road from; this city to Pilot Mountain under I way within the next few weeks, and he will also let contracts for the erection of the bridge across Lovill's creek and regrade and sandclay the Fancy (Jap road this spring preparatory to hard- 1 surfacing. With Mount Airy connected up with Winston-Salem by a hard-surface road, and other j points further south, it means j that ultimately the people of this part of North Carolina will! be using this route as a means j of travel to points north, and that the two states will soon see' THE DANBURY REPORTER. the need of, and agree on a pro position that will connect these two sections with a hard-surface road from north to south through Mount Airy.
