GETTING READY

FOR THE WHITER With the near approach of the cold season the building contractors are making strong efforts to finish up their small jobs. Residences are to be completed so that they can be occupied before the coming of winter. In other rases repairs are to be made and plumbing and heating systems installed. The building work of the season is well along and yet there will be touch remaining to be done after the cold J weather sets in, bringing inconvenience! both to those who are doing the work and those for whom it is done. Winter building is not pleasant work, and yet it has to be done every season to accommodate those who do not get their contracts placed early enough to have them completed iai time. This cannot always be avoided, but there are often delays which should not occur. The danger of looking for a contractor late in the season in the probability that all of them will be found with their hands so full that they cannot take on additional work. There has been great activity during the past week In finishing up the con tracts which have been nearly com pleted. In some cases already there is a dearth of skilled workmen to carry out the details of the finishing. Masons have been so busy that they are far behind their engagements and this in turn delays the carpenters. Commander.
