KKKKASKA TELEPHONE COMPANY
WILL lUT Cl IIUILMNG
In Friday's issuo a four-lino local
announced tho salo of tho Mrs. Sarah
Hangs property In tho 200 block on
west Fifth street to T. F. Healey. At
ihvs tlmo tho Item was written It was
known that tho purchase had been
wade by Mr. Healey for tho Nobraska
Telephone Comipany, but at that par
ticular tlmo tho matter was not
"rlpo" Tor publication. The telephone
company purchases tho lot for tho
purpose of building a "homo" for Its
local plant, and beforo tho end of
j., 1920 It is hoped to have a building
ompieteu mat win liavo cost the com
pany not less than $40,000.
It was known for somo tlmo that tho
ompany desired a building site, and
an offer of $9,000 was mado for tho
Redflold corner at Fifth and Vine,
but tho Doctor asked $12,500. Mrs.
Oarlson was approached, but she de
ollncd to sot a price, and Charley
Hendy, who owns tho former Long
loy protporty, was also asked to name
price. Tho site purchased, however,
is Just as satisfactory to tho company
as either of tho properties named. Tho
building to bo erected "by. tho com
pany will cover the entire lot, will bo
two stories, with brlclc as tho con
traction material. It will bo built
with a view of permanency, and there
fore well constructed.
Tho cost of this building will bo less
than one-half tho sum tho company
will invest in tho North Platte plant,
tor an entire now system of switch
boards and appurtenances will be in
stalled in tho now building. Tho total
expenditure as proposed will reach
about one hundred thousand dollars.
It is the policy of tho Nebraska Tel
"Vphonu Co. to own its. own "homo" in
11 the larger cities, and that it has
decided to make this investment in
North Platto is evidence of tho bollef
of tho officials In the futuro growth of
Hio city.
