AUGUST BUILDING PERMITS
MAKE EXCELLENT SHOWING
Special to The Herald.


PASADENA, Sept 3.-Thirty-
bungalows and houses were provided
for by building permits taken out dur
ing the month of August.
The total amount of permits issued
was 87,947.50, which makes the past
month nearly record breaker. Several
new school buildings swelled the total.
Four new cottages probably will be
built at once by the Hotel Maryland.
Those already in uHe have proved eX-
tremely popular, and the demand for
them far exceeds the supply. Manager
Linnard is confident that an increase in
their number will meet with favor from
his clientele.
The construction of these cottages
has been delayed by several complica-
tions, so it is doubtful If they will be
completed by the beginning of the win
ter season. 1t probably will be easy to
fill them, however, no matter when
they are completed, provided it is be-
fore next summer.
