portunities now before tham, to im
prove their time while nt college in or
der to obtain the higher things of life.

which the college man will obtain. The

elevating and impressive.

Improving the Brunk Hill.
Road Overseer Charley Robinson and
a gang of men nnd teams are now nt
work improving the Brunk hill on the

The hill is being cut down so that the
grade is gradual and the road, which is
very sandy, will be covered with clay,
thus making a hard surface. This hill
has long been a hard pull for loaded
teams going north nnd tho fact that it
is being put in good repair will bo ap
preciated by farmers and others who
have occasion to use the road.
