Look at New
City Quarters

Sidney residents got a look
Sunday afternoon at Sidney's
new City Hall, begun last fall.
City officials were obviously
proud of their new quarters,
built at a cost of approximately
S46,400. The building replaces
the old facility, built in 1913
at a cost of $798.50, a figure
considered "exhorbitant" at
that time.
The new building of tan
Hebron brick connects on the
west side of the Fire Hall,
completed in 1856, and extends
to the alley on the same site
as the previous quarters, but
larger. Three sides are largely
of glass, with brick pillars
around the beams supporting
the overhang roof. Overall con-
s%truction was done by Sidney
contractor Dick Ness, with Cur
ney Electric subcontracting the
electrical work; York Inc. the
plumbing; Sidney Sheet Metal
the heating installations; C. E.
Ebersole the painting and Kali
levig Bros. the excavation
work.
The inside of the building is
finished in attractive birch
paneling and with ceilings cd

and cabinets and comfortable

added at a cost of $500, leav-
ing about 500 of the origina.

mill increase in High School
District 1 and a bond issue for
construction of a new elemen-

The trustees have pointed out
that the four mill increase is
an 8 mill reduction in voted
levies over last year and indi-
cate that the increase is nee
essary to operate the high
school.
The bond issue for a new
grade school would lead to an

sue were defeated, according
to school officials. Cutbacks
would be necessary, it was
pointed out and personnel
would not be employed in
some instances.
