Show OUR CHANCE On all sides is reflected optimism in considering the chances that Mil-ford's Mil-ford's proposed paving and street lightinng program will receive the stamp of approval of property owners affected. If these improvements go in as proposed, they will make for a town of vastly changed appearance, and for the better. A town of dirt business thoroughfares has a definite defin-ite limit to its progress, just as does a town with archaic board or cinder sidewalks. Towns which do not make provisions for the changes necessitated necessit-ated by time, in competing with other towns in the matter of handling an increased volume of traffic and of a different type of locomotion than that of horse-drawn vehicles eventually eventu-ally find themselves on the sidelines, watching the parade going away in a different direction. Compared to the profit which will accrue to a town in making a long time investment invest-ment in paving, the original cost is insignificant. In other ways than in paving, Milford Mil-ford has lagged. Cedar City, Paro-wan, Paro-wan, Beaver, Richfield, and Salina have rhanged the appearance of their streets from that of a dismal small-tnwnish small-tnwnish look at nights, to beautiful business-like Main streets, by the addition ad-dition of ornamental street lights. There is no reason why Milford cannot can-not afford the same improvements. If the paving and street lighting programs get the public approval, Milford will become one of the smart-' est looking little towns in Utah. |
