STRICTLY HIGH-GRADE FURNISHINGS FOR THE MODERN HOME
Peninsula Clubs United to
Have Structure Erected as
Far North as Possible-
Object to Building It
South of Steel Bridge.
United Action on behalf of the clubs
on tha peninsula la certain now that
tha Alblna high bridge la almost as
sured, to bring tha seat approach at
soma point much farthar north than at
Hancock atraat or aven Alblna avenue,
at ha been proposed. Tha aubject has
, baa brought up and. discussed In all
tha peninsula improvement associations
and a big effort will be made to swing
the eaat approach as far north aa pos
alble. At a recant meeting of the University
Park board of trade tha delegates of
that organisation ware Instructed to
vote against any proposition for a high
bridge acrosa the liver below the ateel
bridge that provided for an approach
south of Kllllngsworth avenue. It Is
not thought that the plana for the
bridge will be serlouslv delayed be
cause of this action of the peninsula
eluba, since the petition If passed will
leave the location of both approaches
to tha engineers.
Growlny Fast.
Tha peninsula la growing faster than
most citlsens of Portland are able to
realise. It la the opinion of the prop
erty-owners on the peninsula that un
less this bridge Is built from a point
nearer the peninsula another bridge will
be required within a very few years

Improvement Association
Holds Important Meeting:
to Push Street Work.
Tha KenUworth Improvement asso-
clatiom held lta aeml-monthJjr meeting
Monday evening at tha atora of A. J.
Van Wassenbovs, and waa largely at
tended. This body rff men are exceea-
-.i tar rhs imorovement of
that nign ana signuy suuuiy,
the tenor of their epeechee ;laat evening
It la evident that there will '1e aome
thlng doing" in that neighborhood this
year . -
Alter almost T.
It la also argued that Hancock street
la too near the present east approach
Of the steel bridge.
Hancock street wss oniy seiecioa or
tha members of the Northeast Hide Im
provement association because It I would
be more feasible. Hancock streof Is
blgh above the river. That . aw ap
proach could be built from that thor
oughfare with less damage to the ad
joining property than from any other
point la because It has been mentioned
frequently as a convenient location for
n approach by Judge M. O. Munley and
other members of the Alblna organisa
tion. .
However, a united effort is being
made by the peninsula clubs to swing
the approach north and It Is very like
ly that it will succeed. The ..clubs
united on the proposition are the Pied
mont Push club, the North Alblna Im
provement association, St. Johns Com
mercial club, the Arbor Lodge Push
Club, the Willamette Push club, the Pe
ninsula Push club, the University Park
board of trade and tha Woodlawn PuBh
club.
The question is admittedly a big one
and will develop to a larger one before
many weeks. No effort Is being made
to prevent the construction of the
hrldga: In fact, all these clubs realise
that tha bridge is absolutely necessary
for the development or me east siae
even if looated farther south. The de
manda are made as reasonable as pos
Bible and are made only so that tti
nenlnsula mar not nave to nunn i
brld a: e of Its own perhaps within the
next two or three years.

Joker frets Bnsy.
J. R. Tomllnson reported that 'the
Barrett brothers are negotiating with
the Evans brothers for the platting and
sale of the ground known as the KenU
worth vegetable gardens, and It seems
probable that this will be accomplished
and the question of this alleged nuisance
be settled.
The association holds Its meetings on
the first and third Monday evenings of
each month. Some loker has had It
published that a rival club had sprung
up In KenUworth. The publication has
caused amusement In the neighborhood,
as even the named officers of the club
hare never heard of its existence.

Large Throng Inspects East
Portland's Structure
Opened Yesterday.
At tha opening of the new east side
branch of the public library yesterday
afternoon and evening, just eompleted,
at the corner of East Alder and East
Eleventh streets, throngs of visitors
were received by the librarian, Miss
Elizabeth Clarice, and her assistant, Miss
Wills. Mary Frances Isom of the Port
land norary was also present to neip
entertain the visitors, including many
school children.
It Is estimated that more than 500
school children visited tha building at
tha school children s hour, 4 o clock, ana
listened to the etory told by Miss Mil
lard. In the evening a program was
presented to the old folk. Kev. T. L.
Eliot presiding. Rev. Eliot made an
Interesting address of welcome. In which
he reviewed the history of the Port
land ijiDrary asociation ana its arowtn.
He said he looked forward to the time
when the small, hastily-constructed
building would be replaced by a mag
nificent stone structure for the Impor
tance of the branch would demand such
a building within a few years.
Money Necessary.
O. M. fleott. chairman of the library
committee appointed by the East Side
improvement associations, spoKe or tne
worn oeing done to raise tne amount
necessary to defray the expense of
erecting the present building. The cost
of the frame structure was 2,500, of
which $1,000 has been pledged to the
east side clubs. W. L. Brewster made
an Interesting address, as also Professor
Hoover. or tne men school.
The building had been beautifully
deoorated for the occasion. It is neatly
finished and well built, though Inexpen
slve, as It was contemplated that from
the beginning the building is hut a tem
porary affair. There Is no doubt In the
minds of those .who projected the new
branch that within a short time it will
be as Important and perhaps more pop
ular than the main building on the west
side because of the growing population
on tne east side or tne Willamette river.
The east side is much Indebted to
Wlnslow B. Ayer of tha library board
ror tne aonation or tne Quarter diock
at East Alder and East Eleventh street
for the library bulldlnir. Otherwise the
east side branch would not have been
possible perhaps for a number of years
o come.

SFLLWOOD SEWER
PROBLEM
SOLVED
City Engineer Taylor Plans
to Build Septic Tank to
Beceive Drainage.
It is thought that City Engineer Tay
lor haa solved ttie aewer difficulty for
fiellwood. Instead of draining; the east
slope of tha suburb Into the Willam
ette river by way 6f Johnson creek to
Mllwaukie at a great expense to the
property owners, Mr. Taylor believes
that it would be feasible to construct a
septic tank large enough to receive all
tne sewerasre from this section oi uie
suburb for a number of years.
Because or the geography or Ben-
wood It has been found necessary to
build two distinct sewer systems to
drain the suburb satisfactorily. One
part of the suburb slopes eastward and
the other westward. The westward side
Is easily drained Into the Willamette
river, but the eastward slope can only
be drained to the river through to Mll
waukie, a distance of several miles. The
people of the eastward slope are willing
to snare the burden of building tne
sewer tm the eastward slope so when
the plans are submitted both systems
will go through as one and the cost be
divided evenly among the property-owners
of both slopes.
