directly by the mother, who by too fire.

don't starve easily, and this little stom-

w. J. eLIEsNER, ARCHITECT

A man who after twenty years eXpe-
rience in any given trade or profession
still stands at the head needs no further
guarantee of his ability. 1t would not be
difficult to prove w. j. Bliesner's right
to stand as a representative of Los An
geles' best mechanical artists and archi-
tects. Twenty years ago he established
himself in this line of work and has dur
ing all these years kept in touch with
the newest modern ideas in building, and
is withal man of marked originality:
This characteristic has led to his great
popularity as a designer, of public build;
ings, and there are today in this and
other cities numbers of handsome build
ings that testify to his unusual ability as
an architect of the highest class. Among
other buildings that we might mention
with which he has been archil ecturally'
identified are the Polytechnic high school,
the Riverside Carnegie library building
and the Riverside court house, besides
many schoolhouses of which he makes
speciality and other important structures.
His offices are in the Mason building,
corner of Fourth and Broadway, rooms
1885, and here he is prepared to fur
nish estimates and plans on application.
Mr.. Bliesner is public spirited citizen:
and highly esteemed by wide circle of

tensive building of business houses and
homes within the past few years Mr..

JAMES D. SCHUYLER

James d. Schuyler of this city is un-
questionably one of the most prominent
and widely useful men in the engineer
ing line now on the Pacific coast He
is a member of the American Society of
Civil Engineers, also of the Institute of
Civil Engineers of London, England, of
the Franklin institute, the United States
Society of the Pacific Coast. His edu-
cation is complete, and his opportuni-
ties for research and study have been
boundless and carefully improved,
therefore when we state the fact that
Mr.. Schuyler stands at the head of his
profession it is no complimentary
phrase in his case His office is in
the Braly building, rooms 1211-1212,
where he has planned the details OF
much important work done in the west
and southwest during recent years. He

well known in San Diego and in San

largely in these cities and their vicini-

Showing How Los
Angeles Is
Growing

Los Angeles in 1915! Can you ap-
proXimate the population of Greater
Los Angeles ten years hence? What
will be your guess. 250,OoO, 100000 or a
half million?
Guided by the marvellous increase in
population of the city during the past
five years, with the knowledge of pres
ent favorable conditions throughout
the Southland, to many the half mil
lion mark is the favorite number.
And with the rapid growth in popu-
lation, building interests multiply.
Many towering structures rise on the
principal thoroughfares and thou
sands of California palaces and modest
homes adorn the broad avenues and
streets of Los Angeles, and the future
promises still greater things in the
substantial development of the city.
Sixth City In Expansion
The latest careful compilation for the
month of June, 1905, made by the Chi
cago Construction News, placed Los
Angeles sixth in the list of total ex-
penditures authorized for building pur-
poses by twenty-six of the leading
cities of the country, as shown by the
following tabulation:

c. c. RIrrENHousE, ARCHITECT

One of the most wholesome signs of
prosperity in Los Angeles is the splen-
did character of it's structural i'm
provements. Such has been the mag
nificent growth of the city within the
past few years that it has engaged and
made indispensable the services of
architects of the highest scientific at
tainments and the finest artistic skill.
One of the leading architects in this
character of work is c. C. Rittenhouse,
who was until recently associated with
]. II. Bradbeer, who is one of the
oldest resident architects in the city,
having lived here and been engaged in
active practice for the past eighteen
years, and during that time many of
the finest business blocks, public
buildings and residences in the city
have been planned and erected by him;
Mr.. RittenhouSe is also a gentleman of
thirty years experience in architecture
and building of the highest order. His
practice in his profession has been ex-
clusively in the west, mostly in Ne
braska and Colorado, where he has
done much public work, including quite
great deal of state work which
stands as an everlasting monument to
his skill and. ability. We feel quite
sure that this combination of talent
will continue to assist in giving to this
city much of it's architectural beauty
and effectiveness. Mr.. Rittenhouse is
not only an architect of ability with
original ideas, but a man of honor and
integrity and a progressive citizen.
