BUILDING PROJECT
Talent will have no new
Grange hall. Not this year at any
rate. After much debate, pro and
con, members of the local farm­
ers organization have decided al­
most unanimously to defer any
building plans until some time in
the future. While members agreed
that a new hall was highly de­
sirable at this time, nevertheless,
the fact that many other building
requirements should hold prior­
ity over those of the Talent com­
munity organization discouraged
the Grangers from attempting
the project at this time. It was
thought that it would be better
to put up with the adverse con­
ditions encountered at the City
Hall than to run the risk of caus­
ing a shortage on some more im­
portant project
However, some progress has
been made on the matter. A piece
of property directly across the
street from the Talent school has
been acquired by the organiza­
tion for a site, and plans have
been drawn up for the proposed
building.
Actual construction
will not start until material sit­
uation becomes less critical.
