That well informed interests clos "

present is an auspicious tine to go
ahead with new building projects IS
evident by current developments II

the terms of the contract. which spec
ffy that the new structure must be

significance of the announcement il
SO far as it effects the general build-

ditional substantial Erccf OF tho.r
belief that now is the time 10 h'i'G

Company Issues Statement.
s. w. Straus ~ Co. are in touch with
the fundamentals OF the nations
this general situation they have this
to say:
.'In our opinion the general building
situation throughout the nation is
such as to lend encourag cement 20
those who contemplate building at
this time. No commodity is of greater
necessity than place to live. which
fact applies alike both 10 the busi-
ness unit and to the family unit We
must have factory buildings and Of
flee structures for the business indus
tries of the country. We must have
hotels for those who travel. we must
have apartments and houses for
everybody.
The general supply of buildings in
this country is far below the de-
mand. Material is scarce. transpor-
tation facilities are crippled and we
are short on labor. With these condi-
lions it would seem illogical to look
for any recession in prices. The build
Ing situation will. of course, reach a
place of stabilization some time. but
this will not mean a recession in
prices. 1t will mean that costs will
hold their own.
Faith in American Cities Future.
Never have we had greater faith
In the future of our great American
cities. The census reports now beio-
made public show how rapidly the
larger cities are growing in popuIa-
tion.. prestige and Importance. This
development is bound to continue,
America must replenish her suppIv If
buildings of all kinds
Our advice continually has been.
Go ahead We have given ample sub.
sanitation of our faith in the sitna-
s,on 9. ian and our our decision to go ahead just

The vaudeville portion of the pro-
gram is well balanced. Selina's
Circus, introducing much fun and
many novelties under the title Of
I'm Animal Land" opened the pro-
gram. This number is presented by
trained dogs, ponies and other ami
mails. The main feature of the
troupe is an unridsble mule which
furnished enough comedy to put the
house in an excellent humor.
Al Carpe, THE Syncopated Fid-
dler," set everyone's feet tapping
with his popular airs. The Four
Ushers satisfied all. Charles Harte
and Company give a spectacular
revue of new melodies and a de-
scriptive dance novelty. The Nc
