city to call for expert plans of
both steel and concrete and COM
pare them, then make its selec-
tion."
Mr.. Waddell was not In a posi-
ton to discuss any bridge propo-
sition for Monroe street, claiming
that he did not care to unless he
is retained by the city for the pur-
pose. This attitude is easily ex-
planned when Mr.. Waddell's bridge
record is considered. He is reputed
to be the greatest steel bridge man
in the world, and is not In the
habit Of giving bridge information
free.
City Engineer Ralston is still
working on plans for a concrete
structure on Monroe street, but
cannot say just how soon he will
have them ready for submission to
the city council.

customed to meeting strangers
since she was a small child, and
she has poise and self possession
rarely found in one so young.
She is a distinct contrast to her
more famous sister, Alice. She is
quiet and studious in her tastes
and, like her father, has a love of
reading, which is one of her strong
est characteristics. She is fond OF
drawing and painting, and some of
her work shows marked talent. She
is clever with her needle, and in
this she is mothers own daughter.
Mrs. Roosevelt has few peers in
needlework and Miss Ethel has
been carefully trained in the old
fashioned art of plain sewing, as
well as in embroidery and weaving
lace.
Ethel has the deep religious
strain of her mother, and since her
early childhood has taken a con-
spicuous part in all the activities of
st. Johns church in Washington
and the Episcopalian church in
Oyster Bay. During the past sum-
mer at lawn fete at Oyster Bay,
Miss Ethel contributed more than
80 articles. Many of these were her
own work, and the remainder the
work Of her friends. She persuaded
the president to attend and to pur-
chase something from every booth
on the lawn.

Although the latter bid is consid-
erably lower, 1t cannot be accepted,
according to the wording of the
specifications.
The first bid will undoubtedly be
accepted. When City Engineer
Ralston was seen regarding the
matter today he unhesitatingly
pronounced the Johnson bar the
best, and signified his intention of
accepting 1t in accordance with his
specifications.
j. A. l.. Waddell, the eminent
engineer who has checked over the
Mission avenue concrete plans,
also pronounces the John bar as
more desirable than any other. He
said: Were l to word the specifi-

Mr.. Ralston declares that the
relative strength OF the two under
