dred feet above the surface of the
, earth, a bridge, running from one end
OF Manhattan to the other and with
arteries going out into the suburbs in
all directions, the entire structure made
of glass, where children may play and
older persons read and promenade, is
one of the probabilities of the future,
according to Miss Jeanette f. Baird, of
299 West 10th street.
There will be airships at frequent in

people up to the bridge and bring them
down, for by the time we get around

have always thought" Miss Baird
said today, that there should be some
place where people who need sunshine
and fresh air could get it here in the
clty-some place where children could
play with absolute safety. One night
the idea of the bridge came to me. We
nave used all the ground we can get,
we have delved down and underlaid
our city with tunnels. We have erect
ed elevated railways. Many people are
diving on roOfS.s The roof of the Van
derpiit Clinic is in use now and there
is movement to get possession of the
roofs of the public schools
Must Go Upward.
This all means that we have to go
upward If we are to go anywhere. And
my bridge will be the most effective
way of going up
Miss Baird, after making that last re-
mark, added: Il always forget that the
idea of the bridge is only a fancy. It
seems so real to me. Glass has been
tried for sidewalks in Europe, and been
found most satisfactory. 1t will be the
best material to use for the bridge, be-
cause it win not shut out light from
the houses far beneath it, and will add
to the beauty OF the city. for the bridge
must certainly be beautiful 1t is TO
have wonderful pillars to support it.

bridge would be the best place in the
world for mothers to take their babies
The baby carriages could be checked
at the alrship stations and carriages
obtained on top of the bridge for use
there.

like the greatest board walk in the
world, except that it would be made

should be willing to provide a thor
oughly democratic place where every
one could rest. The city could pay for
such an edifice as well as for foolish
things
81 think such bridge should have
two arteries TO Brooklyn, two to the
Bronx, one to the Interstate park on
the Hudson, and as many others as are
found advisable. We have the ground
to build on, and it would be an easy
matter to lay foundations on the earth
as compared with the great difficulty
of making huge piers such as many Of
the transOceanic steamship companies
have erected at enormous cost
