two others have consolidated and pur-
chased additional ground space upon
which it is the ultimate intention to
erect a magnificent bank building.
The Rio Grande Valley Bank and
Trust company was the first bank In
Ell Paso to erect a concrete building.
1t is seven stories in height and con-
tains in addition TO the banks quar-
ters. offices on the upper floors. The
building was erected at the corner of
Texas and Mesa avenue, at cost Of
100000. The business increased so
rapidly that larger quarters would be
needed in few years, and only recent
" the Rio Grande sold its building
to the Two Republics Life Insurance
company for $135, 600. taking six
years lease on the building, with the
intention Of erecting another bank
building at the expiration of that time.
The American National.
The American National bank was
the second banking concern TO erect
Its own building. This was built on
the site of the banks old quarters on
Oregon and San Antonio. This build

The Story Of 100000
Worth OF New Buildings
Erected During Year 1910

n HEEOMENAIs as was the building
activity Of 1909, the year just
closing sErpasses all previous
records. both in cost and extent of FL
Paso's building operations The build
ing done IN FL Paso during the year
is estimated at So, o00.0 900, and viii
probably exceed that sum when the
numerous small buildings in the
suburbs and in the south part Of the
city are considered in connection with
the total building estimate.
In many cases entries are made in
the city building inspectors books for
less than one-haif the actual cost of
the buildings so erected, yet the
building Inspectors reports show that
during 1910 there were permits issued
amounting to $1,571,673, which is an
increase Of more than 100000 over the
grand total Of last year, year that
was the zenith OF building progress In
FL Paso. The record shows that for
one month-May, 1s10-there were
sS25, 1857 worth OF permits issued. which
means that the actual cost Of the
buildings to be constructed under
these permits would easily total $780,
000- This surpasses all other building
records for any one month IN the his
tory OF the city.
A comparison OF the figures for
term OF three years gives an idea Of
the steady. healthy growth of building
IN FL Paso, indicating that the present
building era is not a booom or an in
flated affair. but is based on the COM
mon sense economic principle of sup
ply and demand. The figures for 1908.
1903 and 1910 are:

southwest and provide for the fu-
ture expansion OF the banks business.
The remainder of the ground floor

installed
No sooner was the original CapIes
building completed at a cost Of $780,

started on the opposite corner of Mesa
and San Antonio street. This building

The skyScraper Era.
Most remarkable OF all things in
connection with FL Paso's recent
growth IS the development of the sky
scraper building era. When Uncle
Dick Caples decided to rebuild the
Peoples drug store on San Antonio
street after It had burned, he was
struck with the new form of concrete
construction which had been used In
the buildings of the Portland cement
plant. and decided to build q five story
office building on the site of the old
landmark There was where the sky
scraper habit started. No sooner had'
the Caples building been poured"
tnan others conceived the idea OF erect
ing concrete buildings
The Rio Grande Valley bank building
seven stories-and the Roberts Ban
ner building were next conceived.
Originally II was to have been four
stories. but so rapidly were application
for office rooms received that the own
ersx decided to add a fifth story and
arrange the roof for a sixth should it
be needed later.
New Buildings Come Fast.
Hearing of the economical method
of construction made possible by the
concrete age. Gen. Amson Mills, who
had been considering remodeling the
two story Mills building, decided to
remove the old brick structure and
build a four story concrete structure
on the site. Later the building was
made eight stories in the plans, and
then Gen. Mills at banquet given
to him by his friends, announced that
1t would go y stories with the upper
four TO be finished as needed-and he
kept his word
The American National bank build
ing was another projected about the
same time and the Schultz, the second
Caples building-six stories, and the
Krakauer, York & Moye wholesale and
retail building and warehouses were |
soon in course of construction, adding
other units to concrete Ell Paso. The
Calisher building Is the last one to De

reinforced concrete and will be located |
on the corner Of Stanton and Texas.

How to Keep Your Old
Blankets In Good Repair

One of the first places to show wear
in a blanket is along the edge, which
will begin to split into a coarse fringe.
Keeping blankets we'll bound with inch
wide ribbon will prevent this. Unless
some accident happens to a blanket
patching is not resorted TO until it is
very old, then a piece from another
blanket may be laid on large enough to
cover the worn place and held in place
by darning rather than scanning.
All thin places can be fortified by
darning with ravelinGs from an old
blanket. When the blanket is worn past
repair. just double it and quilt it to-
gether here and there and lay it across
the mattress under the sheet, and It
will continue to be of service.

PLAYING GAME OF

Mother Stimulates Child's
Initiative and Inculcates
Good Lessons.
By MARGARET LOUISE WALLACE

rT , ITH the Fourth Gift an al
M most endless variety of
w forms may be built, and
mothers ingenuity will be
taxed to find stories about them all.
Ned will find his own stories, some
times, and perhaps will be glad to take
his turn as narrator when you are
weary or feel stupid.
What shall we build today" asks
mother, as she puts the box of bricks
on the table.
Watt Ned is slowly pulling the
cover back with an air of great mys-
terry. How do you know they are in
here? Maybe they're gone. Maybe a
fairy came and took them in the night"
Il guess not. Play they are asleep.
Yes, there they lie. the whole eight.
Open the cover softly. There
Ned dumps the cube out of the box
and then pretends to wake them up.
Now" he says. They are all ready
to play"
Shall we make them into a long
bench and table? A bench long
enough to hold you and father and
mother and Bess?"
And Nelly and pussy"
PUSSY may sleep under the table"
So with mothers help Ned lays two
bricks end to end flat on the table.
That is the seat of the bench. Then
behind these are stood two bricks on
edge. Then two more across the ends,
and the long bench is made
Room for us ALL" cried Ned.
Then mother stands a brick on edge
In front of the bench, not too near, and
the eighth brick, laid fiat on this, makes
the table top.
Where shall we play the bench and
the table are standing?" asks mother
trying TO find which way Neds thoughts
are tending.
But he is laying a pink finger tip on
different spots on the bench: Mother
here: father here; Nelly here"-until the
whole family had been seated.
This is the time for mother to tell
him something about families, how
happy they may be if they all sit quietly
on the bench and do not quarrel or
try to take more room than belongs to
them. Tell him about how grandmother
and grandfather and their family once
sat on long bench together, and all
the tender things a mother must tell
her children, SO much more easily
taught when there is a concrete object
to hold the babys thoughts to what
mother is telling him.

Novel Table Decoration
At a Debutante Dinner

a pretty idea in table decorations
was seen at a debutante dinner. The
centerpiece was apparently a huge
oblong plat of freesia and mignonette,
mingled with maidenhair ferns-the
color of the dinner being green and
white.
As the ladies rose to depart. the
host leaned forward and Hfed a sill
vered basket of the flowers from the
centerpiece. handing 1t to the guest
of honor. He then further demOlish-
ed ii, giving a basket of flowers 10
each of his fair guests.
The vines completely concealed the
baskets, so the division came as a
pleasant surprise.

VIOLIN TEACHES
A LIFE LESSON BY
DELICATE TONES
By FRANCES CARROLL.

we are very prone to blame fate. or cir
cumstance, or environment, when IN
reality the instrument of life has no
| imperfections. The fault lies with the
mind and heart directing the bow. We
may draw melody without disCord from
our Violin of Life If we keep our hearts
attuned to truth and guide the bow with
the firm fingers of honest optimism
Touch the sensitive strings of the
Violin of Life with petty irritation, in
tolerance, and hate and the whole or
life jangles repellently.
Possibilities of
Uplifting Symphony.
Out of the life that God has given us
it is quite possible to draw forth a SYM
phony whose influence will extend and
uplife to the farthest bounds of our
acquaintance.
Or we may go on getting off the key
until our very existence is such a med
ley of discord that even those nearest
US get out of the way of its jangling
sound.
Don't blame life for the sort of melody
you get out of it. Don't lay the van
ished melody up to any cause other than
the method in which you have handled
the bow.
Remember that the instrument of life
is God-given and has no fault.
Remember that it holds the sweetest
music in all the world If you will but
see to it that we draw it out and send
it pulsing gladly on its way of cheer and
love.
String the bow of your Violin of Life
with strings of love, and WELD 1t with
the hand of truth.
And If, by any chance. a wrong note
be struck, be quick TO find the key and
hold to it. for each discordant note
takes one farther awag from the Won
derful melody of a perfectly attuned
life.
