are but five of these twenty beautiful Derry Streeet Homes remaining unoccupied.
They are of the better built type, being erected by Contractor Hippie and are modern in
every detail. Situated on a main thoroughfare in one of the finest residential sections of the city
they are particularly desirable. The very low price at which these homes are being sold has
made them especially appealing to the man of moderate means. As a home investment they are all
than can be desired.

CITY IN MIDST OF
\ BUILDING BOOM
[Continued From First Page]
ly attractive and the increasing cost of
materials has udded further to the
burden of the builders.
At that Harrisburg is in the midst
of a mighty enthusiastic building
boom Just now. September was a
record month and the increase in op
erations as compured to the same
month of 1915, placed Harrisburg
in the unique class of second on the
list of 111 of the larger cities of the
United States. October will run high
too, although the approaching winter
months has served to slacken things
a bit.
Half Are (Parages
To date some thirty-seven permits
have been issued and oddly enough
about fifty per cent are for automo
bile garages. Of the thirty-seven
structures for which permission was '
given to build this month, just eigh
teen have been given out for garages.
The biggest operation perhaps, is
the new Pennsy freight station in '
South Second street and the adjacent
warehouse. The walls are steadily
rising 011 these jobs and before the
cold weather calls a halt on activities,
it is believed that the structures will
be under roof.
Activity is also apparent in church
construction. Chisuk Enimuna, the
new Jewish synagogue at Sixth and
Forster streets has progressed as far
as the first floor; across the street,
the new Messiah Lutheran church
walls are above the first floor.
The New Churches
The brownstone front is being built
into the new St. Lawrence German
Catholic church in State street and
its adjoining parsonage. Augsburg
Lutheran church at Camp and Sixth
streets is pretty nearly ready for oc
cupancy and City Building Inspector
J. H. Grove says it should be finish
ed within the next couple of months.
Remodeling of Covenant Presbyterian
church in Peffer street, near Fifth, is
almost finished.
Business and manufacturing struc
tures are moving rapidly toward
completion too. The new Dauphin I
Cigar company plant at Cameron and
State streets Is practically finished
and the great Star Laundry building
at Sixth and Herr streets has pro
gressed beyond the third floor. De
lays in shipments of materials was
seriously felt on that job.
Business Building
Davis and Hargest have finished
the foundations of the big garage in
Muench- street near Third, while at
Geiger and Fourth streets, Jennings
and Son, shirtwaist manufacturers,
have pushed their new building to a
short distance beyond the first floor.
Meyer Gross is hustling work on his
new slaughterhouse at Currant and j
Sayford streets and operations inci
dent to the extension of Swift and
Company's plant at Seventh and North
streets, are well under way.
Nathan Frieburg has nearly finish
ed the remodeling of the four-story
building at Cherry and Second streets,
which he purposes using for a ware
house and the Pennsylvania Milk Pro
ducts Company is. hurrying work on
its new plant in the west end. The
construction of an addition to the
plant in Geiger street has been ob
jected to by residents in the vicinitv,
but this isn't interfering with the
contractor's evident desire to put on
all possible speed.
In the Central Section
In the/ central section of the city
the new C. R. Boas building in North
Second street is probably the biggest
single job. Foundations are prac
tically completed for that $25,000
operation. Work was begun to-day
incidentally on the new garage that/
Elizabeth Shearer planned for Cam
eron and Mulberry. It will cost
$6,000.
George Meyers and T. W. Dill have
combined forces in the construction I
of the concrete retaining wall just I
south of the Mulberry street bridge!
for the extensive building improve- i
ments contemplated there.
New Bungalows
While many contractors are at work
on business structures, dwelling
houses are not lacking for attention.
John F. Barnhart has work pretty
well under way on the two bungalows I
he planned for 1721-23 Forster street,!
and John B. Prowcll has begun work
on a handsome bungalow at Twentieth '
and Kensington streets. Two dwell-I
ings of a similar type of construc
tion are being built in the rear of 670 !
Schuylkill street and David F. Bander
has the ground work for his bunga
lows at 1812-14 Chestnut street well
under way.

REAL ESTATE
GOOD HOTEL IS
BIG CITY ASSET
America's Leading Hostelry
Proprietor Tells How Har
risburg Will Benefit
What a good hotel means to a city,
how a hostelry that satisfies the travel
ing public really benefits the citizens
and why a municipality which boasts
of such an improvement Just cannot
bo pushed from tho nation's map of
progress, are interestingly set forth by
George C. Boldt, of the Waldorf-Astoria
Hotel Company, of New York, in a let
ter to "Realty," New York's greatest
real estate magazine.
Mr. Boldt is one of the world's lead
ing hotel men and expresses his views
on the hotel problem In a concise way
that Is made doubly forcible because It
has behind It the weight of knowledge
gained by years of experience.
The letter is of particular interest to
Harrisburg citizens Just now in view cf
the proposed erection of the capital
city's own million dollar hostelry. Here
is Mr. Boldt's letter:
"I could write you columns and
columns of what a good hotel means
I to a town were It not for the fact that
I have consistently refrained from
writing for publication. I simply want
to say that jhe benefits a town derives
from possessing a good hotel is incal
culable. These may not always appear
to the careful observer, and the benefits
its inhabitants receive may seem some
| what obscure; nevertheless they are
there. For. let It be known to the trav
eling public that a town possess a
good hotel and it will not be passed
by. Every time a stranger stops, it
only for an hour or two, he leaves a
certain amount of money which adds
to the prosperity of its citizens. Let this
stranger leave the town with a good
impression and a kindly feeling, and
you have an advertisement which
money cannot buy.
