School Board Gives Its Reasons For
The Trouble.
------- o
On account of misunderstandings
which have arisen, the School Board
of Bay City district gives the follow
ing account of the matter:
When it was first found necessary
to construct a new school building,
the board employed a well known
architect to prepare the plans, The
architect furnished an estimate of
the cost of the building, including
plumbing and heating of the build
ing. His estimate was $25,000.00
and was probably sufficient at the
time it was made, but there was un
expected rises in the price of labor
and material after the estimate was
made and before the contract could
be let.
Considerable time was required to
comply with the law in matter of
issuing bonds, but the matter was
carried along as quickly as could be
done, but by the time bids could be
called for prices had raised so much
that the architect’s estimate was
found to be too low. There were sev
eral bids made for furnishing the
heat and plumbing, but only one bid I
for the building itself, and that was
for $25,500.00 for a frame building.
The board made further investiga
tion, and was not able to get any
better figures, and as it seemed cer
tain that there would be further ad
vance in the price of materials need
ed, it decided to have the building
constructed by the lowest bidder on
a cost plus basis, the district to pay
for the labor and material and pay
the contractor ten per cent, for his
services and equipment, with the
provision that the total cost should
plumbing, conditional upon the dis
trict voting sufficient additional
money to cover the cost of the con-
tract.
The building has been constructed
so far as to get it under roof. All the
materials for the building were pur
chased as soon as the contract was
entered into, and this has made a
saving of $3000.00 to the district, be-
ing the difference between the cost
of the material purchased and the
price to which the same has advanc-
ed at this time. The price for the
heating and plumbing under the
contract referred to is $6,300.00.
A meeting has been called to be
held on Tuesday, January 27th,
1920, at 2 o’clock p.m. for the pur
pose of voting additional funds in
the sum of $10,000.00, in interest
bearing warrants, to pay the addi
tional cost, this is to be used for
paying off the plumbing and heating,
and the balance for improvements
such as sidewalks, blackboards and
miscellaneous items, and for some
additional cost made necessary on
account of some small changes in the
architect’s plans.
The members of the board have
endeavored to get for the district
the best possible building, taking in
to consideration the present high
cost of material and labor. They feel
that the work has been pushed by
the contractor In a very efficient
manner. The building is now at a
stage where nothing further can be
done until the plumbing and heating
is installed, which cannot be done
without additional funds being vot
ed. The price of material Is still ad
vancing, and if the district is not
able to go ahead with the work un
der the present contract, the delay
trict.
Local labor is very largely em-
ployed on the building, making the
pay roll large enough to be a consid
erable benefit to Bay City people as
a whole.
The board wishes to hKve for the
district a school house In which the
people of Bay City ca ntake pride,
and which will furnish ample accom
modations to the children of the dis
trict.
j The building is 76x126 feet in size.
, It has a fire-proof fire room, and
| gymnasium 35x70 feet, with stage,
locker rooms and gallery in the'
basement. It has a large assembly
room, four class rooms, three recita
tion rooms, laboratory, library, labor
atories, and principal’s office on the
main floor. The grounds are com
modious, and sufficient to allow for
future development for playgrounds.
The board feels that what has
been done has been for the interest
of all of the people of the district,
but it is necessary to have addition
al funds in order to complete the
work, and it urges that the people
turn out to the meeting to be held
on January 27th, and support the
undertaking which is for the bene-
fit of all.
A meeting was held sometime ago
at which little interest was shown
and only a small number of voters
being present, and for that reason the
board is publishing this statement in
order to get the matter before the
voters and to urge upon them the
necessity of hurrying this work
along.
Respectfully submitted, L. A.
Watt, W. C. Hawk and Henry Butler,
members of the board.

Charming Pickford Picture.
------ o------
Mary Pickford, the famous star,
again demonstrates her popularity in
"Hearts Adrift”, a Paramount reis
sue which will be shown at the Gem
Theatre, Friday. Jan. 2 3. Miss Pick
ford is seen as a castaway on an is
land and her portrayal is one of the
best of her varied and successful
screen career. The various roles are
in competent hands, the leading man
being Harold Lockwood. The photo
graph is excellent and the direction
by Edwin S. Porter all that could
be desired.
A Suitcase Full of New Tricks in
“The Knickerbocker Buckaroo.”
Douglas Fairbanks has a suit case
full of brand new stunts that he in
troduces in his next picture, “The
Knickerbocker Buckaroo,” which is
to be shown at the Gem Theatre
next Tuesday.
Douglas has been in constant train
ing with Bull Montana, Spike Rob
inson and Kid McCoy, and. to quote
the screen athlete, “ I was in the
pink of condition when I made this
film.”
His latest Artcraft release takes
him out west, where in an effort to
be unselfish and do things for
other people, he gets into various
melodramatic mix-ups that create
their own comedy incidents.
He purchased a new horse, having
retired "Star” from active service
and was in daily practice with it be
fore the start of the regular day at
the studio, getting acquainted and
trying new stunts.
