tfoot Bridge Issue

fsA kOOt 6Ez08e A89ue
 A public meeting to consider ways and means to save the foot bridge across the railroad tracks will be held ct the South school auditorium | at 7:3O o'clock Thursday evening. Every voter Is invited to attend. l It is not proposed to take up Q collection or start @ campaign for funds, but 1t Is believed that if enough sentiment for the bridge is evidenced, an appeal will be made to the town to take over the struc- ture and maintain 1t as public passway.
 Emile Bussemey, ST., was asked by c number of the families on the south side of the village to interest himself in the matter. MT. BuSsemey made arrangements for use of the school building and discussed the bridge problem with Chairman Bares of the first district and others.
 It seems that unless interest is shown at the meeting Thursday evening, there will be no further ac- ton taken to save the bridge or Keep 1t open. As the matter rests at the present time, Joseph Wasilaus- kas on whose land part of the structure stands, proposes to close that much of the bridge. This ac. ton will effectuallv close the entire bridge, which will then be de. inolished, either by Mir. Wasilauskas, by the railroad or jointly by the railroad and Mfr. Wasilauskas.
