Bedtime forest tale and Cedar Rapids sewer proposals
The text blends a whimsical Zoo island scene with a practical notice. A police dog helps a circus style bear named Guffy aid a jump over a high fence, then shifts to a City of Cedar Rapids notice soliciting sealed proposals for sanitary sewers on 34th Street Northeast Prairie Street Northeast and 33rd Street Northeast with specific pipe materials and bid conditions. Proposals due September 22, 1941.
