All this. Of course. was arranged
for months in advance.
On May |, last, The Herald man
agement fixed August /. as the day
on which the new building and plant
will be occupied. That was a niuety
day guess. IL was missed just six
days, for on the night Of August
moving started
Business as usual at The Herald
e..s
Monday morning. o'clock.
HOMER L. FITCH. contractor. who
started work on the new building
April 10. promised us we could have
the building August !.
And he did-'t miss IL, at least not
much. If there was a slight delay,
IL was due TO Houston firm who N
turn depended on firm up in Wor-
cester, Mass. to supply some build
ers' hardware.
Can't paint and primp without
hardware.
But the delay was not serious. ana
everything has worked out accord.
ing TO a schedule started last Janu-
AIRY when plans were prepared for
the new building, and needed ma
chinery purchased.
The Herald's new plant may not
he the finest in the country, but 4
suits the situation here. everybody
is agreed.
So come and see US next week.
Not Monday. or Tuesday. but later
in the week. There's going TO be con
fusion until things are all arranged
as they are, wanted.
