We would like to re view what has already been ac complished by the Club, to tell what other clubs are doing in Portland and elsewhere, to hui. gest some things that may be done in the future, and to inaugu rate a campaign for a member ship of at lr-ast one thousand wiui which to start tiic year 1923. It is not the purposo of tho Club to interfere with or su persede any church, fraternal, so cial or ctviu organ izatfonjj it merely otters a place and oppor tunity for a common meeting point in all matters of our public welfare. "We believe that the Club deserves not only the ap proval and good will of the citi zens of St. JohtiB, but also the ac tivo support and membership of each one.

Reports Many Lots Sold Since the Frank L. McGuire organization took over four addi tions in the peninsula district less than three months ago, more than 4(H) lots have been sold iMany of the purchasers already iavo started the erection of .tomes. These properties are oil served by street ear lines and arc near the George grammar school and the new Roosevelt high school, in the East St. Johns dis trict. Many of the lots arc on paved streets and have water and gas connections. One of the properties is a liquidation sale and, according to Mr. McQuirc, the lots are being offered at about one-half their actual value. "On the peninsula arc located most of Portland's industrial plants, which are turning out nt the present time products of a total value of about $125,000,000 a year, said Mr. McQuirc. "Be cause of splendid rail and water shipping facilities this district is destined to become one of the great industrial centers of the Pacific coast. For this' reason the peninsula district is bound to at tract thousands of persons who will be employed permanently and it will build up at a rapid rate. An investment in real es tate in this district today, espe chilly at the low prices now ob turning, is bound to be sound. During the past few months scores of new homes have been built in the district and many more are being planned." Ore- yonion. fairies Are a portion of what tho pro gram carries.

Inc. 248 Killingsworth Aveiue Walnut 3306 The Burnslde Bridge The proposed new Hurnside bridge is to be !)0 feet wide and having a grade of not over four per cent and thoroughly modern in every particular. The posi tion of the bridge in probably the best for the reason that thu dm timet crossing the river is short, tin high bank on the east .side enables the approach to bo plac ed over all railroad tracks and other trnflle, and the grade will be only four per cent. Tho bridge will be high enough to permit all ordinary river boats to pass tin dor without interference. The bridge is t be constructed according to City Engineer tiiiiirgaard's water front plan, and has been approved by state, county, and city oillcials, our planning commission and various clubs, civic and labor organiza tions. The position of this bridge en ables approaches to bo built, and these approaches have been ar ranged for. On the cast side of the river an approach extends from Couch street over the tntchs, joining the main bridge near the water lino, and this ap proach will bo (50 foot in width the full width of a street. A sim ilar approach will probably Ik run into Aiikony street on tho east side, while on the west side of the river an approach is pro vided for Couch street, and vehi cles can enter the bridge down I'lirusidt along Second street and along VivA street. This bridge is to bo placed over the natural and logical bridge street of this city a strocl that drains vast areas on the cast side of tho river as well as the west side, and tho only at root running entirely oast and west through our city. Before the present pnrtial closing or order restricting trallic on tho present Murusidc bridge was placed into oll'eet, statistics of travel were made by tho oily every month, and for yon in those statistics showed that tho bridge carried more and heavier travel than any oilier bridge crossing I ho river. The now bridge will fill the ur gent need for a bridge enabling general traflle to cross the river. The approaches on the west side of tho Broadway and steel bridge are very steep, so that horse lad en vehicles and heavy trucks liud great dilllculty in crossing, and tin bridgs to the south arc old and unlikely to stand heavy traf lle and are rapidly becoming un lit for use.
