Community Building Buys Two Mueller Furnaces
The Community Building directors met Friday and bought two Mueller furnaces to heat the hall, with 27 fire pots. Lyons & Herstiman won the bid. Two furnaces will be placed by the stage, a large rear stove remains for cold nights, and excavations for coal bins and chimneys will be needed. The $700 installation cost plus excavations are expected to exceed estimates, but improve comfort. The Gordon Players plan a Brooke road run next week presenting multiple plays and a vaudeville cast of sixteen, led by Chas Greiner and Millard Reid.
