Bid
Sllpei‘iltll nrlent lltlelalmzm, when
asked today what proul't-ss 11ml heel:
made in the installing of 1. new boiler
in the Center school building. said
that the ligelow Co, of New li:I\'eI-..
has the contract for the new boiler
and the contract for installing: some.
this company being the lowest bidder.
This contract was given out as soon
as possible after the funds were up-
propriated by~tl1e Board of Appor-
tionment early in July. The. boiler is
in place and the brick work is com-
pleted. The steamfltters have begun
the work 0! connecting the new boiler
to the old steam-pip” 3:3 return
lines. and it it expected that this work
will be campléted in three or four
days.
After the work has been tested and

found to pass inspection. the boiler
will be put into use.
The superintendent also said that
about one year ago. before the sixty
days had elapsed in which ll.c Board
of Apportionment could re-nppropri-
IIte unexpected balances. the School
Board asked that a sum of money sufv
ficiI-nt to install a boiler in the Center
school be rel-appropriated “from the
$4,524.46 balances on August 31.
19:0." in order that the School Board
could begin this job as soon as the
season for heating had passed, in May
at this year.
This request. with other requests
made at the same time. was not grant-
ed by the late city administration;
hence the delay in beginning- the in-
stallation of this much needed and
much discussed boiler in the Center
school.
