Miss Bernice Carter of College Station

now head of the women’s demonstra-

her chosen work has been very gratify-

“I'm glad to see Denton getting ready
to put down some paved streets and
the county threatening a bond issue,"
said George T. Cobb, former well known
Denton citizen now of McKinney, “for
ft means much for the town. When I
.went to McKinney a few years ago
there wasn’t a paved street In town,
but with an 885,000 bond issue and a
part of the *250.000 precinct bond issue
for roads, we now have twelve miles of
goo<i streets. My advice to Denton
would be not to try to make the streets
too wide; but pave it well and cut
down the width of the streets by park-
ing. which will not only reduce the ini-
tial cost and upkeep^ but make the
streets really prettier than to build
them full width."
