Convalescence is sometimes merely
apparent. not real, and especially is
this true after such diseases as pneu-

To make 1t real and rapid, there is no

suitable for the new station. The lot
owned by the city is in the middle OF

for such purpose.

CONCRETE BRIDGE WILL
GRACE ARROYO CROSSING
Salt Lake, City and County Agree
to Share Expense to OBJ
viate Earth Fill "

An ornamental, six-span concrete
Seco at Pasadena, avenue, in place OF
the earth fill that was proposed and for
which the board of supervisors recent
ly received bids.
A determination to construct real
bridge in place of the earth fill was
reached yesterday afternoon at con-
ference in the city council chamber.
The matter was up before the bridge
committee of the council and in addl-
tion to the members of the committee,
w. ]. Washburn, chairman of the
finance committee, approved the plan.
The conference was attended by r.
w. Pridham of the board Of supervis-
ors, George w. Adams, chairman of
the board of trustees of South Pasa-
dena; 70. M. JesSup, engineer of, the
Salt Lake railroad, and Mrs. A. S.
Lobingier, vice-president of the Arroyo
Seco Park association.
Mrs. Lobingier has been active in
efforts to have handsome bridge sub
stituted for the earth fill that was
proposed and she felt her efforts had
been crowned with success when the
decision was reached to build the con-
crete bridge.
The city, the county, the Salt Lake
and South Pasadena are each to pay
one-fourth of the cost of the bridge.
City Engineer Hamlin estimates that
a brige such as is wanted will cost
about $144,000, making the amount
each interest will have to pay $4,000.
The city has appropriated $4,000 in this
years budget to pay its portion. Mr..
Washburn gave his approval to the
plan when he learned that the amount
appropriated for this year will amply
cover what will be spent before the
next budget can be made up and that
the additional $4,000 will not have to
be made up until next years taxes
are in.
