They should, however, at the same time, look over the ground on which the avenue Would pass if extended in a straight or neariy straight line, so that they might compare the merits of each. ’ ‘Ihe route as recommended 1s a third longer than the direct line would be. It also has the advantage of intersecting the Tenley- town road at about two hundred feet less eleva- Won, and thereby securing un easter grade. The direct route should be foiowed if at all practica ble to preserve the beauty and symmetry of our system of avenues.
