COUNTY BOARD TO LET CON.
TRACT FOR cLEMoNs HIGH.
WAY IMPROVEMENT.
FIVE AND ONE.HALF MILES
OF ROADWAY TO BE GRADED
Contract to Call For Total Of 61,598
Yards Of Gradins-sids Also to Be
Opened on July For Bridge Over
Iowa River on East Main Street
Road-straishten Lincoln Highway

The board OF supervisors will, Wed
nesday July 9, let the contract for the
improvement of the Clemens highway,
and on the same date will open bids
for the East Main street bridge, over
the new Iowa river channel The Glenn
ons contract will call for a total of
1888 yards OF grading, with the coun-
ty being assessed for 57.399 yards, the
town of Clemens for $500 yards. and
Liberty township for 1897 yards. The
Improvement covers about five and
one-half miles of highway.
The grading on the Clemens road is
being done at this time because the
farmers and town people interested
gravel the road If the county will do
the grading at once.
The East Main street bridge was to
have been erected last year when the
road was constructed but the work
went over because Of the almost pro-
hibitive price of steel. A temporary
wooden truss was thrown across the
channel cut. and it is now found that
steel prices have so decreased that
new bridge can be erected, including
the cost Of the temporary wooden truss
and the cost Of dismantling the present
makeshift bridge. at :5eo less than the
structure would have cost year ago.
The truss will be brought to the
county yards here and kept for
euergency use
County Filling Rainbow Arch.
Work of changing the road and fill
ing the rainbow arch at Timber Creek
in the Lincoln highway has been begun
by the county. A new channel will be
cut under the bridge so that the road
way may be Strengthened and make
straight approach from both sides Of
the Rock Valley bridge. The road Will
be connected up at the approaches
with an eight degree curve.
r. F. Ely has completed the work
on the East Main street road. and the
roads east and south from the city are
reported now to be greatly improved.
The work on the LeGrand cutoff
u almost completed and the LeGrand-
Gilman improvement work will be
completed in ten weeks If good wealth
er prevails.

Railroad Officer and
Wounded Soldier Lauds
Local Canfeen Service

Appreciation and thanks for the
work Of the Red Cross during the war
and especially for local canteen work
ers is contained in two letters re-
ceived in the city, one directed to the
Red Cross by a wounded soldier and
the other to business man from a
railroad officer, Both were most graf
flying to the canteen workers, VINO
have served soldiers on all the thru
trains, for the past six months.
-Four coaches of wounded men ar
rived in the city this morning at 1925
over the Northwestern being on their
way to Wyoming and California. The
men had wired ahead for breakfast to
be served them here but thru mis-
understanding the meal was not
ready to be put on the train. The
local canteen service heard OF the
train and took as many Of the soldiers
as could be served at Stones restau-
rant for their breakfast, while the rest
were served offee, doughnuts. milk
and other dshcacies which were got
together on short notice.
To show their appreciation one Of
the soldiers on the train addressed the
following letter to the Marshall Count
ty Red Cross chapter:
'tThis is to try to express the gfat-
itude of the United States to the
sisters and mothers of the Red Cross
who have been SO good to US during
| our stay abroad and our travels both
| here and abroad. They are tho SOL
| diers' salvation. There is nothing
| can say that can begin to express the
| high regard we have for our sisters
| Of the Red Cross. They are always
present wherever possible with COM
forts for the soldier which ftlfills a
need that Is keenly felt many times
and therefore doubly appreciated. And
It is great help in other ways than
| physical comfort. Il helps 6 scld!ar's
fighting spirit to know that tho people
at home are backing him. Tits with
deepest reverence that we thank you
and may God bless YOU"
The other letter was written to e. II.
Draper by B. b. Ross, Of Dubuque,
general agent of the Chicago Great
Western. He writes: They say the
good ladies Of the Red Cross icanteen
have certainly put Marshalltown on
the map. I handle and see a great
