WANT MORE PAYING
Movement Made to Pave to
College Hill
REALTY OWNERS WILLING
Would Make Finest Drive in
the City

There is a movement on foot to pave
Douglas avenue from Washington avenue
east TO the street car loop on College
Hill J. Giles Smith, a property owner
on tbs street, has interested himself
in the mater sand has personally calloS
upon a majority of the property owners
alsng this street and states that those
with whom he has talked have taken up
with the idea Immediately. a petition
has been prepared and already many
OF the residents of that part of the city
have signified their willingness TO sign
the petition.
Mr. Smith and others interested in
the project think that the present time
is the proper time for such move
ment. Just at present Wichita has the
paving fever and miles of street that
have long needed Improvement VIII be
paved this summer. Fourteen blocks
will be paved on West Side this summer
and operations have already commenced
just west of the Douglas avenue bridge.
Douglas avenue will be paved west 10
Seneca street, Seneca south to Univer-
sity and University west to the loop at
Friends University. Douglas avenue is
paved from the Arkansas river 10 Wash
ington avenue, and If the pavement is
extended to College Hill, this stretch Of
five miles viii make the finest drive in
the city. The paving boom this spring
is only another evidence that Wichits
is making a rapid growth and that she
is becoming more metropolitan every
day. Not great amount of paving has
been done since the boom days, but with
the increased value Of real estate, the
increase in the number of enterprises
and the development of business inter-
ests. it is Only natural that public i'm
provements should keep apace. While
paving is expensive for the property
owners along the streets to be paved il
increases the value of the property and
the expense does not all come at one
time. He has twenty years to pay out
Many residents on East Douglas avenue
realize what a pavement would mean to
them and their property and are enthu-
siastic over the enterprise.
