HOLDING BACK AMERICUS EVERY
DAY.

There is one thing that is holding
back Americas, holding it back every
day in the year. And that is the alb
sence of houses of a desirable char
acter that can be rented at $3.50 70
$50 month.
1t is impossible to tel how many
desirable families Americas has lost
in the past year or two because of the
inability to find such houses.
The Times-Recorder has been in po-
sition to know that probably fifteen TO
twenty travelling men, covering this
territory, would have been glad TO
have established their homes here To-
Gated their families here, if such hous-
es had been available.
How many others there may have
been who have found it impossible to
secure comfortable little homes at a
moderate rental it is impossible 70
say. 1t is not unlikely that, if the
exact facts were obtainable, fifty
families would be found to have been
lost to this city in the past two or
three years-families that would have
been highly desirable additions, fam
lilies whose heads receive good salar-
les and would have been the means of
adding to the business prosperity o.
the town.
There is no use in repining over
what has been. The question now is,
how much longer is this to continue
Is Americas to go on forever turning
people away from it's doors, repelling
them with the announcement that no
one here has faith enough in the city
or capital enough, or enterprise
enough. to put up some attractive,
comfortable bungalow homes, with
modern equipment, to rent.
We doubt very much if a row If
such houses were put up that theT
would be vacant a single day after
completion. In fact it is quite prob
able that they would be leased by the
time the foundation had been laid.
There are very few things that in
terfere with the growth of this city.
There are many things that tell for
its progress. But this absence of
comfortable. desirable houses to rent
is a block in the way of progress that
should be removed. Why do not some
of the men who have large interests
here, who will profit by the develop
ment of the city. show their faith by
erecting a few. The demonstrate
will convince others and lead TO the
building boom this city needs so
much and must have if it is to in
III rease its population
Travelling men visiting here are all
ways pleased with the town, with It's
appearance, with the tone of its peo-
pie, with its educational advantages
Let it be known that houses can be
had and it is a safe assertion that a
number of them will quickly arrange
