Historv. hopes for the future, the arts, leading citizens these are but a few oi ine many points of character a town is apt to wear on us sieeve iui all tn see In many towns, a schoolboy could learn the names or tne nation's presidents by simply rnntotiniT the names of the streets. Lincoln, Washington, Madison, Jefferson, Harrison, j names and a little more. Mor are local heroes and heroines forgotten. In Madison.Wis., the streets Clyde uaiiagner rtvenuu Hilda Lnnnauist Drive and Es ther Beach Road pass on the names of these local greats to oosterity Perhaps your town tells some thing of its industry or boasts of a local characteristic on its street signs. Is there a town in the state of Washington's apple empire that doesn t nave us Apple Street? Southern Calif ornia's fruit belt towns are aoi ted with Orange Streets and Grace Boulevards. In the mid west, you're likely to find Corn Avenue. Wheat street ana ai falfa Drive with some regularity. But for all the information the namps of streets pass on. it Is j a rare town, indeed, that has ! signs that serve the basic func Ition of location. In fact, most . ctriiot dim nrp tucked away ; where they can't be seen at all. I Mnnv towns paint street names on curbstones. In the fall, leaves hide the name; in the winter, there is snow; spring's rains do the damage in their! own season, and the summer is spent repainting. Other cities rely on concrete posis two or three feet high to act as corner stones of information. Better yet are those towns j where the street sign Is on a post six or eight feet high, right out for all the word to see. And some of the more pro gressve cities have signs es pecially made to be seen after dark. These signs can be read long before you get to the cor ner and give you plenty of time to locate your turn. There is no dangerous hesitating in intersec tions, no backing, no house-to- house inquiring the new signs that can be read both day and Shop Co'den Shore Frozen readed Shrimp Chase & Sanborn nstant Dromedary.
