EVERYBODY TALKING
ABOUT CONFERENCE.

Continues

building a fine bungalow on East
Twenty-first avenue, North Wildwood
close to Surf avenue, for J.. Fithian
Tatem, Esq, attorney of the North
Wildwood Land Co., and also of the
City of North Wildwood. 1t will be
patterned after the western style
known as California bungalows. There
will be nine rooms exclusive of the
bath room and the living room will
have one of the traditional open fire.
places or hearths. The plot of ground
on which this modern home will stand
is 60 x 100 feet.
Guggenheimer and Green, former
owners of the Bellevue apartments, on
East Twenty-sixth avenue, North
Wildwood, have also awarded to Frank
E. Walters a contract to build for
them, for their own use, a two-family
apartment house, on Tw~enty-fifth ave-
nue., near Pennsylvania avenue, or adj
joining the tennis court grounds of
the Wildwood Manor hotel. Material
for this building is already on the
ground and the initial stages of the
work will begin at once.
Rarely does a house so successfully
combine the general lines of the true
bungalow, with 81 many qualities of
the old cottage style, as does the one
now under course of construction at
the northeast corner of Twenty-third
and Central avenues, in North Wild
wood, by Contractor W. H. Washburn,
for Mrs. Helen Ashoff, of 1O7 West
Twenty-third avenue. Red tapestry

of the main portion of the dwelling.
When completed, this house will pre-
sent a most pleasing front, with it's
beautiful cement porch, enclosed by a
rock-faced artificial brownstone rail-

of this operation may be had when it
is stated that it represents a SIS, 900
