ing two pretty cottages erected on Lo-
tus road, west of Philadelphia avenue,
each of which contains eight rooms and
a bath, which will help TO supply the
demand for small cottages and apart
ments by those that enjoy spending
the season at the shore.
An attractive concrete cottage of
unique design is the one that is being
erected on Park Boulevard, neal Palm
road, for Richard r. Neinaw, of Wild
wood. This is similar in construction
to the pretty one that was built last
season for Carl L. Siebert, in which the
architectural designs were taken from
the style of abode used extensively in
Southern California, and is known as
the Mexican or Old Mission style.
The insufficiency of the number of
apartments or small cottages to supply
all that wished to spend the summer
here, last season, was very apparent,
and the erection of the splendid large
apartment house that is being built for
DIR. j. Harvey Spruance, of Whining
ton, Delaware, will help materially in
supplying this seasons demand. The
new structure is being erected by Con-
tractor Thomas s. Goslin, on the corner
of Philadelphia venue and Primrose
road, and contains six nicely arranged
apartments with all modern convenient
ces.

having a handsome cottage erected on
Crocus road, west of Pacific avenue,
which is complete IN every detail and
contains all modern conveniences.
This is the fourth cottage Captain
Downs has had erected at the Crest,
the sale of the other three at a good
profit, confirming his belief in the wis
dom of investing here.
