Post card views of the new steel
Siletz bridge have been received
from Carl Davis, showing the bridge
nearing completion. The Steel is
all in place and the work will be
completed in another weev. This
work has certainly been rushed,
and it is a job the people of the
county, and especially of Siletz
district, may well be proud. Of
course, such movements come
high, but the value of this imrove-

travel begins over the bridge. A
