Slab Fork Coal Builds Two Modern Model Schools
Slab Fork Coal Company will construct two new model schools in Raleigh County with instant fluorescent lighting, funded after the white school burned and insurance paid. The buildings, identical one-story structures with furnaces and automatic stokers, progress only to the subfloor due to material and labor shortages and are slated for completion next term.
