BRICK HOUSE BY MAIL.
Uncle Sans Parcel Post Gets Heav-
lest Parcel. Kornmeyer BIOS.
Contributor.

Kornmeyer Bros, Decorah's popu-
lar brick manufacturers, sent by
parcel post yesterday morning a
brick of local manufacture to be used
in building a brick house at the Col
iseum Chicago during the Clay Prod
ucts exposition which is TO be held on
February 18th to March Sth. This
brick will be one of $4,000 sent by
parcel post from every brick plant in
the United States to be used in the
construction of this house, which
will be given away and re-erected af-
ter the exposition.
The idea was originated to test the
merits of the parcel post system and
it is certainly a novel one. A rec
ord will be kept of each brick from
the time the brick is mailed until it
is delivered in Chicago in order TO
see how speedily Uncle Sam can de-
liver a brick house by mail
1t is probable that Uncle Sam 5
mail carriers in Chicago will not be
overly enthusiastic for this method
of delivery of a brick house. Other
mail carriers throughout the cour-
try will watch the experiment with
interest, fear and trembling. While
the brick fireproof home is becoming
more and more popular because Of
its permanency, economy and super
iority, it is not probable that they
will be delivered by mail TO any
alarming extent.
At any rate Kornmeyer Eros will
have a brick in the first brick house
ever sent by mail.

The plan Of the school board which
we mentioned last week to ask for a
vote of the people upon the question
of erectlng a boiler house near the
high school building and placing a
new boiler in it, was decided upon at
their meeting yesterday morning.
There is a lack of room in the high
school building, and the old boiler,
which has been in use ever since the
building was erected and was second
hand when put in, is practically worn
out. The board thinks that the most
economical way to provide addition
al room needed and make the school
building safe from fire and accident as
we'll as more Clearly and sanitary, is
to erect an outside heating plant, and
will ascertain the wishes of the peo-
pie at the election on March 10th.

The band boys are giving this dance

|48 BUILDINGS ARE
 ERECTED IN 1913
MANY IMPROVEMENTS
SEWER SYSTEM, NEW DEPOT NORMAL BUILDINGS IMPOR-
 TANT ACHIEVEMENTS.

The year of 1913 is marked as one of many improvements of a substan- tial character. Chief among these are the construction of a sewer system embracing almost the entire city, which will be completed within the next two or three months; the erection |of handsome new passenger station; the completion of the girls dormitory and other improvements aggregating in cost about $60,000 at the Arkansas State Normal School; the completion and final acceptance of the waterworks system; the raging of the old Metho- dist church preparatory to the erection of new $60,OO0 edifce; the beginning Sof $15,000 home for the president on the campus of Hendrix College; the installation of $1O,0OO worth of new machinery at the municipal electric plant; the reconstruction of the tele- phone system at cost of over $20,- coo; the organization of an improve ment dlstrlct for the purpose of paw ing the business streets of Conway, at a cost of about 1000; and last but net least the erection of total of AS new buildings, consisting principally of residences.
 In the above summary is not includ- ed many thousands of dollars worth of other Improvements, such as remodel ing residences and business buildings, laying concrete sidewalks, plumbing, electric wiring, painting, beautifying premises, etc.
 For the record of new buildings erected the Log Cabin Democrat is indebted to Dr. George s. Brown, who for seven years has kept an accurate list of all new houses constructed within the city limits of Conway. Ac- cording to his records, the number of buildings for 1913 was exceeded by only one other year, that of 1912, when 57 houses were erected. His record for the past seven years is as fol-
