Belvidere will have a galaxy of well- paved streets for the first time in its history; which will be a source of to its residents and to visit them or satisfaction pthers who come to who pass through. 3ut the streets already paved and being paved in Belvidere are not the | only streets that have been improv- ed this year. The work of the works bourd has been the most extensive in yoars from the standpoint of terri- tory covered. The adoption of the crushed stone and binder method for suburban strects has made it possible to cover much territory at a mini- mum of cost. Throughout many parts of New England this type of street improvement has been given the status of high grade paving, and there can be no question of its value. The use of bituminous binder with the crushed stone—used here for the first time on Steele street—has indi- cated to city officials that there is a way to provide satisfactory suburban paving without undue cost. The appearance Miller street, which runs between IFarming- fine of ton avenue and Burritt street, is in remarkable contrast to its previous | condition, which was o disgraceful that during wet weather it was well- nigh impassable. The 17 per cent grade on this street—perhaps the heaviest grade of any street in the city—is now easy for any automobile to negotiate. There are 8o many other strects which have been trans- | formed from unevenness to smooth- ness this year that it is really amaz- ing how so much work could be done upon the money appropriated. The appropriation of $50,000 for “stone this year to do traveled ways" seems to have something the astonishing street improvements ob- with tained. Naturally Mayor Paonessa points to these new street pavements with pride. They have administration and they are some- thing of a monument to efficiency. The fact that they are not situated down town has resulted in a mini- come during his mum of notice being taken by gen- eral citizens, but a motor trip around the city these days, or a littlc later when all the streets still being unger improvement are completed, will be an eye-opener. Nothing makes more of an impression with the citizenship generally than improved streets.
