In 1920, 'a paving pruject was completed on a stretch out to what was then called the Mt, + Jackson area—a little community “that boasted health-dealing waters and a sanatorium. That was the last paving project on W. Washington Street. Electric automobiles cruised over the new street. They were the forerunners of the heavier tralier trucks and cars that bump over the same street today. In the early thirties a city sur-
