SOON TO BE BUILT
Work has been begun by the South-
era railway preparing for the 350,000
concrete bridge which will span Its
tracks on the Peachtree road at Brook-
wood. A gang of men has been put to
work widening the cut. This work may
take thirty days or more.
Meanwhile, however, the work of
putting up the forma for the shaping
of the reinforced concrete structure
will progress and It will not be many
weeks before the concrete mixers are
put to work.
Three tracks will run under the span,
which will be about sixty feet wide.
The width of the new bridge and the
roadway will be the same at that point

roasts between the grand Jury and the
