There is every indication that
B~rookings will this year enjoy the
biggest building boom in years. We
are told that about thirty houses will
go up before cold weather sets in,
and there are a number in process
of construction at the present time.
There has been a scarcity of help
all spring. which has prevented a
number of citizens from building, but
this will probably be overcome in a
short time, These improvements, to-
gether with the sewer work and the
new girls dormitory at the college,
will furnish employment to a large
Number OF men, and there Is no rea-
o for anyone to be idle.
