IRON HASN'T ARRIVED
IS THE REASON WHY WORK on
THE SCHOOLHOUsEs HAS
BEEN DELAYED

Mr.. P. D. O,Den, who has the
contract for remodeling the second
ward primary schooIhouse and the
erection of the North lOcala school
buildings, explained to a Star re-
porter this week that the delay IN
the work ON the two buildings was
caused by failure to receive 6he iron
for the work. There are a number
Of large iron beams that have to go
in the walls. These beams were or
dered over two months ago but a
long delay occurred before the
foundries shipped them. They have
now been on the road for some time,
having been much longer en- route
than was anticipated, but are expect
ed to arrive now at any time when
the work will be pushed forward
rapidly to completion. Mr. O'Dell
would have had both jobs completed
ere this, but for the delay in getting
the iron.
