The old road over South | Mountain was built when nobody ' was overly particular how many curves there were in a road, when it was thought more cheaper to twist around a boulder than to remove it. It used to be no great stunt for a horse and buggy to zyrate around that mountain pro- | vided the driver took things easy and had the best part of a day for the purpese, When the swifter age arrived, the age of gasoline, the sit- uation changed, and it was found that doing & shimmy and a fox trot up the mountain road was not suitcd to the Rolls-Rough flivvers in gen- | eral circulation. Then it was thut indignation at the “condition of th: road" heeame audible, and for convenient and there has been a steady agitation to ‘improve the road;"” or at least do something to make a mole hill out of the mountain. | The state highway department is | at work on the proposal, and it takes no excentional eyesight to sec that the new road, when completed, will make sport of the mountain fast- nesses it penetrates. Instead of a | ripbon of bumpy meanderings the new road chooses a route built more | on straight modern lines.
