Ozona. Texas. Thursday, August 9, 1928,
Now that the first primary is
over and things have settled back
to the every day grind, the at
terition of the citizenship of Ozona
ha> been focused again on the pro-
posal to construct .» bridge across
Johnson Draw, And at the mid-
dle of this week the situation look
ed very encouraging
Tuesday morning the committee
in charge *f circulating the sub
script ion list reported a total of
more than $3,iMMi OO already pledg
ed and it was the general belief
that the total could easily brought
to $3,500.00.
This is the amount of the sub
Mcription list which will be pre-
sented to the County Commission-
ers Court when it meets in regular
session Monday morning The e-
titriated total cost of tile proposed
bridge is $b.ntg) and members of
the committee and citizens inter-
ested in the project plan tu lay the
subscription list before the court
and ask that laxlv to appropriate
sufficient county funds to make
up the balance necessary to build
the bridge.
A bridge across John-on Draw,
ha,-, long been a dream of this com-1
munity. The opinion among the
citizenship is almost unanimous as
to the vital need for such an im >
provement and all other methods;
having failed, the movement was
launched to build the bridge by*
popular subscription, aided by.
county f!iVnis The response to the
movement has been wholehearted
and the committee expects to reach
its goal of $3,500 with little d-ffi
cult > Ii s to be hofted that the
Commissioners Court will respond
with the same earneatnes that the
citizenship ha- shown and make'
every effort to find a way to a;>
