of the Caldwell Department stat
ed that the fire was probably
caused by defective wiring.
Several electric motors, a
mixing machine and product ma
terial were either damaged or
destroyed by the fire. w. D.
Semple, co-owner of the firm, ex-
planned that smoke and water
was responsible for considerable
damage.
The $4,000 estimate did not in
clude damage to the building
which is owned by William
Schott, Caldwell route 4. One
window on the ground floor and
portions of the ceiling were badly
burned by the fire.
Dick Davis, who resides direct
ly across the street from the ce-
ment block structure, reported
the blaze. Members of the local
department were working at the
fire house at the time of the call.
Consequently, the three trucks
and entire department, were at
the scene of the blaze in a matter
of minutes.

New Steel Bridqe
Slated For SR 146|

A steel beam bridge on State
Route 146, one mile east of
Sarahsville, Noble county, will
be closed for a month beginning
June II, for emergency replace
ment work. The bridge will be
re-opened July Is, the Ohio
Department of Highways an
nounced.
Traffic will be routed over a
county road from State Routes
l46 and lat, according to J. c.
Kendle, Highway Division De-
putty Engineer.
A steel beam bridge with a
3o-foot span will replace the pre-
sent structure. The deterioration
of the existing bridge has in
creased rapidly in the past
several years.
The timber flooring is rotten
and breaking up and the made
quate waterway space under the
bridge is causing frequent flood
ing of the bottom lands and the
highway. Double the present
waterway width is needed to
correct this condition.
The work will be done by
highway department mainten-
ance forces at an estimated cost
of S6,960.
