There is yet some cement work to be done but it cannot be consistent ly arranged during the cold weather and a balance is held out of the final payment to await . satisfactory com pletion of the work when warmer weather arrives. This includes some finishing touches to the , walla and on the roofing as well. The work will remove the' roughness noticeable around the windows at the present time. Contractor Sutherlin who put in the heating plant was paid off with the exception of ten per cent held out until a .test of the plant can be made, According to the contract it must be 10 below sero before Sutherlin gets all his money. The' plant is guaran teed to stand a test of that degree of cold and unless the mercury drops that low this year, the contractor cannot draw his balance due accord lng to the contract. Other arrange ments may then be made however. Equipment for the manual training department was ordered selected and purchased at the meeting. H. N.
