Doerner stated that six farms were viewed within a two mile radius of the city with a price rmage from $280 to $500 per acre Two of the farms are in an excellent locaâ€" tion and their soil conditions and contour make the land "A letter was sent to 35 local realtors and a letter was sent to Mr. Russel Shantz asking him to state his final price for his 140â€"aere farm," said Ald Frank Doerner the spokesman for the Committee. Last week a delegation conâ€" sisting o6 Mr. Ed. Sim, the chairman of the Park Board; Ald. Roy Bauman; Ald Frank Doerner: and City Treasurer Mr D. C. Schaefer viewed lands _ for possible future cemetery use and brought this report back to council. Mr. Rice was born July 30. 1907, in Acton, and was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Louis Rice.

These local farms lend themâ€" selves to better cemetery use than the Shantz farm and can be purchased at a more reaâ€" sonable rate. Further report on the Committee‘s negotiaâ€" tions with the reailtors will be presented to council in two weeks.

The new $780,200 chemisâ€" try and chemical engineering building for Waterloo College is expected to be ready by the Sept. 14 deadline Earlier the construction had been as much as three weeks behind scheâ€" dule. The new bridge is expected to be completed by the end of November, when the old bridges will come down and their road approaches closed. On completion of the bridge area motorists will lose the charming drive through â€" a leafy tunnel, formed by massâ€" es of willow trees on either side of the roadway leading to the first bridge, located south of the othor. MODERN BRIDGE REPLACES TWO OLD BRIDGES ON COUNTY SCENIC ROUTE These bridges have permitâ€" ted traffic to travel on the back county road from Highâ€" way 85 to Conestogo. A modern, concrete, fourâ€" span bridge will soon replace two rickety, old bridges which, over the past years, have beâ€" come part of Waterloo Counâ€" ty‘s scenic drive. The bridge replacing these two will be called the Schiefele Bridge. "This type of sidewalk," he said "could be hazardous to children and pedestrians.

Although the bridge is e pected to be finished by the end of November, it will not be paved until spring. A sizable amount of work has been spent on building up new, high approaches to the bridge from the old road and a considerable chunk has beerm cut out of the river‘s nortk bank to direct the water course under the new bridge.
