In West End Building

Work on the six apartment house
on West Main street vacated some
time ago at the advice OF the build
ing commission has progressed to a
point at which the building depart
ment is TO begin supervision Of the
work and make an effort to de-
termine what caused one Of its walls
TO bulge several inches. The bulge
occurred at the second floor. Brick
work has been removed 10 the level
