Robert Browning's great hopes for

Browning was sensitively anxious
about the reputation Of these works

Section Getting Fair Share of
Road Work, According to the
County Commissioners-Some
Portions Beat Peachtree Road.

II anybody thinks the southern part
of Fulton County is not getting its
share Of public improvements, let him
take an automobile spin in that d.
rection and find out his mistake
There is a popular fallacy that North
Fulton gets everything in the way
of roads. This is largely due to the
fact that there is a gradual trend to-
ward the North Side and good deal
more talk is heard Of North Side ac-
tivities than Of those OF the South
Side. But what Of the facts? Ask
any County Commissioner and he will
point out thoroughfares that are so
far ahead of the most desirable sec
ton Of Peachtree Road that q COM
parison would be ludicrous. Take the
broad smooth drives to Fort McPher-
son, East Point and College Park for
instance. Stretches of the Campbell
ton Road, the Marietta Road and half
dozen others. Surely the farmer
can use his automobile to advantage!
He doesn't need to envy people who
live in the upper regions Of the county.
Trip Of Commissioners.
Just to prove the above contention
and to upset the said popular fallacy,
Shelby Smith, chairman OF the coun-
ty commission, and Commissioners S.
B. thurman and w, Tom VIM took
a party out the other day for an in
spection trip. The Journey covered
approximately 25 miles and was full
of good roads, and the farmers and
others along the route looked happy
over the situation. Only once in a
while did ruralist shake his head as
the commissioners passed, and point
to a tributary road that had not been
worked.
The ambition of the County Com
missioners Is to connect up county
highways In such q way that the We
hiclist can start on the outskirts at
any point and circle entirely around
the city at a good radius without
once passing through the center.
Working with this idea, they have be-
gun paving North Moreland Avenue
from the railroad tracks northward
to Ponce DeLeon Avenue and Druid
Hills, and going southwark have i'm
proved South Moreland and Confed-
crate Avenues to Grant Park. West
End will soon be easily accessible to
Grant Park by way of Georgia Ave-
nue. and Glenn Street, a new route
which cuts off probably a mile from
the devious route that has hereto
fore been followed. The plans call
for north and south connection be-
tween East Atlanta, Ormewood,
Grant Park, Druid Hills and Pied
mont Park, and from the extreme
points in this line reach such points
as Buckhead, Roswell the many fer
ries. Bolton, College Park. East Point
Hapeville and Adamsville by such
roads as Piedmont Avenue, Peach
tree Road, Roswell Road, Powers
Ferry Road, Howell Mill Road, Ma
rietta Road, Mayson and Turner's
Ferry Road. Cascade Road, Campbell
ton Road, Sandtown Road, College
Park and Hapeville Roads. etc
we are doing all we can for the
entire county without playing to any
particular section" declared Chairman
Smith Anybody who has impress
sions to the contrary should go out
and see what is being done"

There is a common belief that
acreage tracts in the East are very
high and that tracts in the South,
which is less developed, are COMPARE
lively low. The glamor attached to a
State like New York or New Jersey
or Pennsylvania does not fail to in
clude real estate, when viewed from
afar.
The truth OF the matter, however
is that very reasonable prices some
times obtain in the East, and the
man who wants improved land at less
than 800 an acre can frequently
find II.
An illustration taken from Catskill
N. Y, will suffice. Following is a
description Of $50 acres, a thirteen
room house with bath, and many
other things, for $4,000, on terms Of
one-fourth cash and notes at per
cent:
A Tempting Description.

Asa Gamblers Peachtree Front
age Costs 100000 to Garry.
Department Stores Won't
Leave Whitehall, Says Dawson.

Although valuable central lots in
Atlanta that pay no income are few
and far between, there are several
| which have attracted more than or
binary interest in the real estate
world because OF the comparatively
long time that they have gone unim-
proved. Notable in this connection
are the Gambler lots fronting some
260 feet on the west side OF Peach
tree. at the northwest corner of Ellis
Street, and the Hugh Richardson lots
fronting $50 feet on North Forsyth
Street, at the southwest corner Of
Luckie. The former are worth ap-
proximately $1,000, 900, or $4,000 a
front foot, and the latter have been
appraised at $4,000 to $4,000 a foot, or
$500, 900 to $3.50, 900. Consequently,
assuming that Mr.. Gambler could
make 6 per cent net on his property
II 1t were improved. he is losing 49,
600 year by keeping It vacant, and
Mr.. Richardson is losing $40, 900 to
S45. 900, enough money in either in
stance to buy a warranty deed on a
desirable semi central lot.
Mistakes Possible.
If the said property is enhancing in
value by per cent year-which is
very conservative for Atlanta land
then in the final reckoning these
owners would come out that much
ahead; but immediate improvements
might be made to yield a much bet
ter return. On the other hand, the
improvements would necessitate an
additional outlay of money and a Sc
rious mistake might be made in the
character of them, which would mean
an ultimate loss rather than a gain
This explains largely the position Of
Mr. Gambler. His land lies right now
in a sort Of neutral zone" so-called,
OF Atlanta business. A theater might
pay handsomely, looking ahead sew
eral years, and department store
might be a failure, or vice versa II
might be advisable to erect temporary
business establishments, and yet, to
lease these for five or ten years might
block ambitious plans for large and
permanent improvements. Mr. Can
dler is accordingly taking no chances,
and the same with Mr.. Richardson.
They are reposing in the snug Sc
curity Of an enhancement that con-
stantly attaches to central property
in Atlanta-and throwing possible in
come moneys TO the winds.
Beaumont Dawson, head Of the
Gently shed some light on the local
department store situation, and what
he said had a more or less direct
bearing on Mr.. Gamblers anticipated
move. II expect it to be a good long
time" declared Mr.. Dawson, before
the department stores cross the via
duct to the north. If they ever do.
We in the business would not take
long leases and extend our equipment
in present LOCATIONS If we expected
any radical change
In my opinion, Peachtree is to be
Atlanta's automobile street and
Whitehall will remain its department
store and retail street, at least for
many years. II is the history of such
cities as New York that there must
be a section where men go to supply
their needs, and that different sec
ton must be provided for the WON
en-. Department stores and automo-
bile shops don't mix.

y Real Estate GOSSIP -

General A. ]. West, senior member
of the real estate firm of A. ]. and
H r West, received a unique offer
the other day for property which his
firm had advertised in October 1891
Now. General West never overlooks
he found 1t impossible this time to
deliver because of the fact that the
property was no longer listed with
him and the would-be buyer wanted
the old 81 prices to prevail.
Frank Weldon, for years connected
with Georgia State Fairs and now
dealing in city real estate and farm
lands was the prospect referred to.
He ran across an old advertisement
Of General West and inc1osed It in
letter. with the remark that IF
the lot 40 by 100 feet. on Peachtree,
close in for business, is still on the
market at $4,000, | will take 1t; also
the Cain Street lot opposite the Gov
ernor's Mansion, 40 by 100. at $500"
In the same advertisement General
West also offered a business lot on
Pryor Street, near the car shed, at
$3.50 foot; 500 feet on West Peach
tree, at $50 a foot; and a splendid
farm of los acres up Peachtree Road
for $4,000.
why don't we have "a real estate
bank in Atlanta?" asked a well
known land dealer of his partner the
other day. There are very few
bankers favorable to the idea Of lend
ing money on real estate, and their
position hampers development"
Such an institution sounds very
we'll" replied the partner. but II it
We're established each real estate
agency would want to use all the
money. That bank would go broke
mighty quick!"
The first speaker agreed to the
general proposition, but ne didn't see
why an institution of the kind could
not be managed in such way that 1t
would be safe and at the same time
exercise great influence in building
up the city.
why should bankers refuse TO lend
money on land?' ne asked. There
could be no better security. Besides.
money paid for land goes right back
into the banks. Even though one
man pays 1t out, another takes it in
and places it on deposit. The banks
get 1t just the same. 1t doesn't go
out of Atlanta and it helps in the cir
culating process"
