Heating Contract ~ ed.
The building is to be 81 ucted
of brick with stucco finish, /. ors
are to be of cement, steam wIl be
use for heating and the heating
plant will be built in the basement OF
the freight station. This portion of
the contract, including the plumbing,
has been awarded to John w. Hoff-
man of this city.
Seven construction firms have had
the plans and have gone over them.
The company has asked that bids be
in by the 18th of this month. Bids
cannot be opened on this date now
for the reason that the Santa Fe
agreed to leave the plans with Ard
mort for at least one week. This
time will be used by Ardmore peo-
pie in going over them thoroughly in
order that they may be fully under
stood and that reasonable sugges-
tions may be made with reference to
the changing of the plans.
The company submitted with the
plans substitute on the south end
of the building in which the loggia
would be eliminated and in its stead
a ladies' rest room and a smoking
room for men were provided for.
For the reason that the plans have
been left here for week or longer
the company will in all probability
not be able to award the contract
during this month There is every
reason to believe that the plans will
be changed, and that will necessitate
more work for the craftsman and
more figures for the bidders.
