not provide for concurrent jurisdic-

CONTRACTOR TELLS
OF RED TAPE DELAYS

More concerning Winnemucca' s
new postoffice building has been
learned. F. Gallagher of San Fran
cisco, who has the construction con-
tract. having arrived here yesterday.
He was busy yesterday measuring the
site of the new building at West
Fourth and Melarkey streets. This
morning he had a crew of men with
horses. plows and scrapers on the
plot and work of excayating is under
way.
Talking to reporter for The Silver
State this morning, Contractor Gal
'agher said that the building is to be
'7x48 feet, one story, and basement
the full size. Construction is to be of
concrete and brick, with steel col
umns and steel girders for roof sup
port. The basement is to contain
tore rooms. boiler room for the
steam plant, and employees DRESSING
rooms. There will also be built 2
small mailing vestibule in the rea
for convenieAt loading and unloadine
Of mail. The entrance will face Fouri
street. Trees now on the lot will y
saved if they do not interfere with tn
building operations.
The bid under which Gallagher Sc
cured the construction contract 70,
the postoffice building was for $42 $50
The postoffice department, however
will furnish the letter boxes and fur
niture.
1t is not thought likely the founda-
tion can be put in this year. The
present excavating work is more In
the nature of living up to the term
of the contract, which requires tha,
work must be started as soon afte,
allowance as possible. Even though
the concrete might be put in before
freezing weather comes. 1t is still
practically impossible so to do be-
cause VI BOfcinultHt Icu tdpC. Il Vi
instance, II is required that cement
used in the foundation shall undergo
a twenty-four-day test at Washington,
and be accepted by officials, before
first steps can be taken. Then an agent
is notified at San Francisco who visits
the source of the cement, oversees
loading of ii into bin. which is then
sealed by that official. Another agent
for the government must watch the
cement unloaded and break the seal.
So no real work may be expected
on the building until next spring.
A provision in the contract, however,
compels the contractor to have the
building completed on or before Sep
tember 25, next year.

In MEMORIAM

In sad but loving remembrance o
our dear father, Robert B. Herd, wht
passed away April 21, 1918:
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is still,
place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filed
We mourn for you, dear father.
But not with outward show,
For the heart that mourns sincerely
Mourns silently and low.
We often sit and think Of you
When we are all alone,
For memory is the only friend
That grief can call its own.
God took him from us
But never from our hearts;
He beckons, ever beckons,
"Oh, my loved ones, come to me-"
More and more each day we miss thee,
Others think the wound is healed;
Little do they know the sorrow
Deep within our hearts concealed.
Just one year ago today
Our dear father passed away;
Sad 1t was to part with him
As we miss him more each day.
Rest on, dear father,
Thy smiling face we see no more;
Though you are gone you are not for
gotten,
Never shall your memory fade.
Sadly missed by his son. William B.
Herd, sister, mother, and family.

HowDIPHTHERIAIs CONTRACTED

One often hears the expression, "My
child caught a severe cold which devel-
oped into diphtheria, when the truth
was that the cold had simply left the
little one particularly susceptible to the
wandering diphtheria germ. If your
child has cold when diphtheria is pre-
valent you should take him out of school
and keep him off the street until fully
recovered, as there is hundred times
more danger of his taking diphtheria
when he has a cold. When Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is given it quickly
cures the cold and lessons the danger
of diphtheria or any other germ disease
being contracted.
