Some people think that the apartment hotel
or house is not an ideal place for a family with
children to live. Most persons who hold such
opinions know little about apartment houses or
hotels The children who are fortunate in lIv-
ing in such structures usually have much bet
ter playground to romp in than the streets The
houses, at least most of them have roof play
grounds. and the area of each OF these play
grounds equals small city park In the cold
est days of winter and on wet days these play
grounds have roofs of glass. There is less dan
ger Of the children hurting themselves on these
Fairgrounds way up in the air than in the
streets. On all sides of the roof Fairgrounds
is high wall Some parts of these roof play
grounds not enclosed even in the severe
weather, SO that children who are benefited by
constant outdoor exercise can get such outdoor
recreation without going to the streets or parks.
There also apartment hotels and houses
with roof parlors for young and old per-
sons. and IN the summer these sun parlors and
Fairgrounds. high above the street are trans
formed into roof gardens.
In most of the modern apartment hotels the
plan Of the first floor is so arranged as 10 pro-
vide a large drawing room, which IS usually
elaborately furnished and In which throughout
the winter season concerts are given by well
known musicians The concerts are popular
with the guests of the house.
The family or individual who cannot find IN
this city an apartment house or Eotei which
does not suit their or his needs must be hard to

a large number were built and operated ex-

privacy at their meals had tables which were
partly hidden by screens from the view Of other

guests take their meals without being hidden

in the inviting appearance OF his big dining
