MATERIALS ARRIVE
FOR HASKINS GARAGE

The arrival of two carloads of ce-
ment recently has relieved the con-
crete construction situation here, and
within the next two months, a cons d.
cradle amount of concrete work will be
done, according to Lon Rotton, fore
man for f. L. Scull.
A crew of men under Mr. Rotton
began the concrete work yesterday on
the new garage and apartment house
to be erected by R. B. Haskins on the
corner of Locust and Caldwell street
The forms have been completed for
some time and work was delayed be-
cause of the scarcity of cement. Mr..
Scull has enough contracts ahead, Mr..
Rotton said, to keep a large crew of
men busy for the next two or three
months.
