II there are other delays in the arrival
OF building material il may be later
date than that before the Normal eaa
be opened.
This situation does net meet with tbs
approval OF the members OF the Normal
board. No one IN particular Is to blame
for the condition OF affairs. The delay
IN construction has been caused urinci-
paIly by the non-arrivaI OF material and
all efforts to hurry shipments have re-
suited In naught. The brick. made IN
Kansas City. owing To the inability q
the manufacturers 70 supply the demand.

for joists is holding back the work. The

tractor did not figure on when he ac-
ceptsd the contract
