, history bricks were made on Sunday, Donnelly's brickyardi running full blast yesterday to catch up on orders, which are coming in faster than the company can take care of them. It. was stated this morning that a night shift may be started if the present rush continues. Business is unusually good at the briclyards for this time of the year, proving that an unusually large amount of construction work is going on about the country. Big auto trucks, loaded to the limit, are con- stantly leaving Clarll's brickyards. The only trouble that most of the local yards encounter is scarcity of labor.
