HIKHWAY BRIDGES i i t i i; i in Tur mi i i.ii. NIAN ANNUAL. Aside from actual construc tion of the highways them selves, perhaps no feature of the great progress of road building in Oregon is of more importance than the character of the bridges that are being made a part of the system. Strength, combined with artis tic designs, are features of these bridges that will appeal to the tourist and all who have occa sion to wse them. All of the modern ideas of safety and beauty are incorporated in the large number of spans that form a part of the highway sys tem. A special story, with illustra tions, on this subject is but one of many that will appear in The Oregonlan annual edition, to be issued January 1. Every form of the state's development will be fully covered In atory and picture. SOCIETY T It R S.
