Hemingford to Vote
on Erection of Town
Hall in the Spring
The oftestion of a town hall was
brought up at the last meeting of the
Hemingford board and passed on very
favorably, says the j Heminjrford
Ledger. The subject was brought up
by Chairman Oliver who has been
making investigations into the cost of
erecting a building that will be suit
able. In explaining the proposition to
the members of the board, he pointed
out three thintrs especially that make
it advisable to take up the building of.
a town hall at this time.
First. Building material is cheaper
now than it has been for a number of
years and with little prospect of build
ing this spring, there will piobably not
be another rise in material for an
other yetr at least. Building material
will rise just' as soon as the country
starts booming building again. Build
ing now the town can take advantage
of the low prices.
Second. Labor is cheaper now than
it has been for a number of years.
With the scarcity of work and espe
cially in the building line, it will be
Dossible to save several dollars in labor
over previous years, and possibly over
the labor of a couple of years hence as
labor price will go up also with in
creased demand.
Third. This is the easiest time to
sell bonds that the country has ever
known. Companies are offering prem
iums that more than cover the first
years interest. Towns everywhere
who have voted bonds have been able
to sell at premiums that have been
money makinsr propositions for the
town.
Several other points were brought
out in the discussion that favored the
present time for building. The new
town hall would contain a jail. The
present jail is in such condition no one
can be locked up there. In case of ar
rest it is necessary to take the prisoner
to Alliance or sit up with him. A new
town hull would give a meeting place
for the town board, the fire depart
ment, and various other organizations.
Mr. Oliver gave an estimate on the
cost of building two different kinds o!
buildings. The matter was pretty
WHAT MAKES GOOD HARNESS?
First The leather MUST BE GOOD. We use leather that we know is good.
Second The leather must be cut so as to place the best leather where the
heaviest wear comes. This is done by our experienced workmen who have spent
years at the trade and "know how."
Third Good fitting and stitching all of our harness-making is done in our
own shops.
RESULT Harness unexcelled in strength and appearance that we DO
guarantee in the strongest terms.
