School Heating Contract Awarded

A special meeting of the board of education was called Friday evening to decide upon the bids for the heating plant for the new First ward school building, which will be erected this summer.

A contract was made with the American Furnace Co. to put in a warm air fan system of heating which is in use in the school building in Cleveland, Toledo and many other cities and gives great satisfaction.

It is said to provide a perfectly satisfactory system of ventilation and heating combined, furnishing 30 cubic feet of air per minute for each pupil in every room.

The plant is guaranteed to give absolute satisfaction for a period of five years.
