Optimistic About Work.

Architects and builders alike are
optimistic concerning the outlook for
activity in the building line this year
1t Is generally declared among them
that the present eason adjudged the
dullest of the year, has been the best

look for spring and summer is ex-
~eeptionally bright. This belief Is
given support by activity in the real
estate market. Building work is
proposed by many Of the new owners
of property.
Action of the council to alter the
building code will have a tendency to
promote the use of hollow tile and
cement blocks in buildings the COM
ing spring and summer, 1t is de-
clared. II the amendments are fin
ally passed, hollow tile and cement
block walls may be constructed of
the same sizes as are required for
brick walls.
Single roofs will not be permit
ted and there are other proposed
changes, which would regulate sign
construction and allow steps to be
