Admission 25c and 15c Better Service First Editor Review: I noticed in your issuo of Fobruary 27th an article telling us what a wonder ful institution a bridge structuro across the Willamette, connect ing St. Johns with Whitwood Court, would be- -one end rest ing on the foothills of tho west sido and tho other upon somo suitable location on our side of tho river. Well, I think it would bo all right, but I presume that gentlemen from Whitwood do not need to go to Portland for a living every day. If ho does, ho has a much better car servico than we over on tho east side. My opinion is to work hard for a through car service to and from Portland. I am also very much in favor of a bridge if tho Hill line will extend their line across tho bridge into our city, there fore a better car servico first. It will bring more people out hero and improve business fifty per cent. C. A. Bruggemann. G. G.
