facilities for seepage- and drainage.;
Over this the tons and tons of ashes
are being dumped, the Idea being to
bring this up to within a foot of the
required level of the plaza floor. The
remaining foot will be filled in with
clay and a pavement will be laid over
this.
Finishing touches were added yes
terday to the granolitic walk. Sev
eral alternate sections had been left
open while the wall was in course of
construction but this work is now
completed.
AValk Nearly Completed
The easily sloping walk that leads
from the south end of the plaza to the
River Front walk is practically finished
and is considered a model of its kind.
Mr. Bowman himself mapped out this
scheme and engineers and contractors
have watched its construction. The
walk is about Ave feet wide wide
enough to permit of passage of several
people, two ba"y coaches, etc.
The floor is laid with heavy asphalt
blocks and the slopes over the walk
and the long curving slope that leads
from the outer edge of the wall to the
granolitic walk below, is built In with
big limestone blocks. This acts as a
splendid retaining wall while at the
same time it protects that section of
the bank which would naturally suffer
immeasureably when the high waters,
ice, etc., spin around the corner of
the steps. Vines, flowers and shrub
bery will be planted on tl>e rock-tilled
jlopei.

keep him from going to war. With
this thought in mind, clerks at Mc-
Fall's believe, he took the cdurse in
salesmanship offered by the Elliott-
Fisher Company hoping that he would
be assigned to a foreign office. After
completing the course Owen was sent
to Cincinnati, and later transferred to
the New York office.
Got War Fever
It was while watching a erove of
horses being loaded along l me wharf
that the war fever hit him so hard
that he hastily scribbled on a postcard
to his mother at Paxtang tnat "I've
got the war fever bad and am going to
Europe. There is no use of attempt
ing to stop me for you can't get here
in time." The letter was received.here
early in May.
That was the last heard from him
until last week when DeForest Les
cure, a close friend received a card
from France which said tnat "I'm
having a tine time. Been promoted to
second iieutenunt and have been
under fire several times."
Owen formerly was a student In the
Forney Grammar school. He left be
fore completing the course to work at
McFall's. Former companions al
ways said that he aspired to be a sol
dier. According to his card he is
really enjoying it.
