SAFEWAY GIVES GOLD BOND STAMPS TOOI Nebraska cities are going 1st class... with streets of modern concrete The officials in these listed cities have realized the benefits of concrete pave ment. Many have a continuing pro gram of street improvements. Nothing else sets off a pleasant new neighborhood like attractive concrete streets. They start out good looking and stay that way. No softening in summer heat, no patching needed every spring. No surface treatments required that leave tars to stick on wheels and shoes. And concrete is laid flat to stay flat and smooth-riding. It never gets pot holed and rippled. There is always good drainage. All this—plus excep tional safety, too. Concrete’s grainy surface offers dependable skid resist ance, wet or dry . .. makes it easier to keep cars under control. New concrete ttreet u» BtOevat, Ntbrmka r.. Light colored concrete reflects more light, gives much higher visibility at night than any dark surface. And fewer light fixtures are needed to give the whole area a well-lighted look. When you consider improvements on your street, ask your city officials to pave with safe, durable concrete.
