Republican Town Committee u ««l Sept. 24th, 1915. McNair Lands Sold. Four parcels of real estate be longing to the estate of Eben O McNair of Buffalo, a bankrupt, were sold Friday. The sealed bids were opened by the trustee, A. W. Fisher, at a meeting of the credit ors. The cottage on the west side of Silver Lake which includes seven acres of land, was bid in by Joseph C. Buxton, acting as agent for those interested in organizing country club. This property was appraised at $5,000, and was sold for $5,100. Tbe building formerly occupied by the Bank of Warsaw was bid in by George Gardner of Warsaw for $5,200. This was also appraised for $5,000. About six acres of land east of the B. R. & P. tracks went to Albert Zehler of Warsaw for $150. A small piece of land in Park street to Frank- C. Salisbury for $25. The next meet ing of the creditors will be held on October 28th. *\ A Good Rf5ad: Town Superintendent M. F. Fitzgerald has completed the half mile of macadam road he has been putting in west from the B. R. &j P. crossing near F. E. Morgan's. Many think it is equal if not su perior, to the roads being put in by the state, which cost from $12,- 000 to $14,000 per mile, and the cost was only $1819 for the half mile. This price would have been less, if the slag had been shipped just when he wanted it. The total cost for the 2640 feet was as fol lows: Slag $302 40 Freight on Slag 202.01 Stone for base 238.00 Labor 980.70 Total $1819 17~ One can readily see what a cou ple thousand dollars appropriated each year would amount to. A half mile of road each year, prop erly constructed, would soon count for something. Nearly every town in the county is now building a mile or so of macadam road each year, connecting up with the state and county systems, and it won't be many years before there will be a net \york of them all over the county. Mr. Fitzgerald has demonstrated bis ability as a road builder and he is receiving many compliments over the high class of road he has con structed. Some of the taxpayers claim too much money has been expended on one piece of road, but in our judgment, it is better to take a small piece of road each year and build it permanently than take the money and scrape the dirt out of the ditches and pile it up in the middle of the highway. The roads in the town of Gainesville, as a whole, are in excellent shape; if you don't believe it take a trip into Allegany or Cattaraugus coun ties some day. We don't believe there is a town in the state whose highways and bridges are in any better shape than our town is un der the superintendency of Mr. Fitzgerald. The piece of macadam road Mr Fitzgerald is putting in for Silver Springs connecting with the town road is waiting for a carload of slag before being finished, but is passable for traffic.

Last week's Arcade Herald cop ied the article that recently appear- [ ed tn the SIGNAL in reference to J. G. Kershaw's candidacy for super visor and added the following: The SIGNAL, of which Mr. Wm. Ingleby, the present supervisor of that town, is the editor, does not say anything about the splendid services be has rendered his town during the years he has been on the Board of Supervisors. We be lieve he has been one of the strong men on the Board, and has brought to the discharge of his duties a good, hard, common sense, linked with unusual ability, and qualifica tion, and talk about being \on the job.\ He worked over time. Thanks, Brother Arthurs. School Notes. There are two hundred and thirty-two pupils between the ages of eight and sixteen residing in this school district as shown by the fall census. At the close of the first month of school this year, there is a total registration of two hundred and four, showing an increase of four over the registration for tbe cor responding time last year. Chester Tallman who has been a regular student in the grades for several years, and who began the year in Castile High School, has resumed his work here. The school authorities will ap preciate the cooperation of the par ents in seeing that every child at tending the public school has a medical examination some time this week. After examination the health certificates should be left with the principal. The School Board stands the expense of the examination, if it is made by either Dr. Randall or Dr. Humphrey. Fire Last Night. The big barn on Lester Berry 'a farm, on the cross road running from the Castile-Gainesville road to the Hobson hill\ road, was barn* ed last night with its contents, in eluding three horses. We hear that Mr. Berry was not awakened by the fire and knew nothing of his loss until he went out to do his chores this morning. FOR SACK : 8 room house on Church street Enquire of Jas. MaGniro. The Primaries. At the primary election held in this district Tuesday afternoon, 26 votes were cast, at a cost to tbe town of Gainesville of $16, besides the town,s share of the cost of printing the ballots and the neces sary blanks, etc. Of the number of votes cast, there were 23 Repub Ticans who voted and three Demo crats. Only three Democrats vot ing may sound a little funny, as there are supposed to be four on the election board, but one of them left his \ specs \ at home. In Dist. No. 1, the Gainesville district, only seventeen votes were cast, which makes them cost about $1 per. A Comedy. It was related to the police by Wm. H. Kane of Silver Springs, who ran down and'slightly injured Patrick McDonald, a city employee on Ellicott street, at Otis street, last Thursday afternoon, that he had a humorous conversation witb Mr. McDonald after the accident Stopping his automobile, Mr. Kane went back to where Mr. Me Donald was still lying in the road. \ Is there anything I can do for you?\ Mr. Kane Immediately ask' ed. \Well responded.
