St. Patrick's Teeth
Brought To u. S.
By Cuuens

BELFAST, Feb. >8.-An inter-
esting story is woven around the
relics of st. Patrick now being
exhibited in the sacristy of the
Pro-Cathedral of St. Patrick in
this city.
The relics are of a hand and a
jaw and are enshrined in the
Shrine of St. Patrick's Hand and
the Shrine of st. Patrick's Jaw.
The jaw is large, and only one
double tooth remains.
1t appears that many years
ago there were five teeth in the
jaw, which then belonged to the
Cullen family, living at Der
naghy, near Belfast.
Three members of the family,
it is said, each took tooth when
emigrating to the United States,
while a tooth was deposited un-
der the altar of the chapel at
Dernaghy in 1897.
The jaw was in the custody of
the Cullen family for many gen.
erations, and it appears that
many years ago the water in
which the bone was immersed
was given to persons afflicted
with epilepsy and was also used
as an antidote for cattle dis
eases.

STRENGTHENING the outlook expressed
by the association that 1924 bids
fair to continue present activity
comes an announcement that total
valuation of building permits is
sued in 208 principal cities of the
United States according to official
reports have reached the unprece-
dented figure of $3,167,9S9,22O. In
1922, itself record year, the total
valuation of building permits, issued
was only $2,574,77S,871.
Roughly, two.thirds Of the whole
valuation, as shown by the F. w.
Dodge Corporation study OF the
totals, is found in permits issued
In twenty cities. IN these twenty
cities the money value of building
permits issued in 1928 totaled over
four times the money value of per-
mits issued in the same cities In
1914.
The enormous gain shown is
significant measure of national
business prosperity even though
the measure of building indicated
must be modified by consideration
that building costs in the 1914-1923
period have increased on an aver
age more than 80 per cent, accord
ing to the most accurate statistics
now available, the national associa-
ton points out.
New York alone in the past year
has a total of $775, ,025,9S1. Chicago's
sum is 1929 ,604,312. Los Angeles,
which in 1914 issued permits for
only $18,155,832, has now reached
a point where it last year issued
permits for a construction total of
$500, ,133,181, third on the Nations

MOVES To NEW
HOME
Gardiner & Dent to Occupy
Entire Dent Building at
1909 L Street.

Gardiner & Dent, Inc. realtors,
announce that on Monday, February
IL, 1924, they will be located in their
new office in the Dent Building, 1409
L street northwest.
This property was recently pur'
chased by w. Gilbert Dent, president
of the firm, and the building remod-
eled. The firm of Gardiner & Dent,
Inc, will occupy the entire first floor
and basement, which comprises about
1000 feet of space; the second and
third floors have been divided into
up-to-date office rooms, which will
be rented.
Gardiner & Dent, Inc, Is one OF
the best-known real estate firms in
this section of the country. It was
organized in 1909 and since that time
has made rapid growth. w. Gilbert
Dent purchased the interest of A. s.
Gardiner in November, 1921, after
which several changes were made in
the conduct of the business. Mr..
Dent reports that the business of
the firm has expanded to such an
extent that it was necessary to seek
larger quarters, hence the acQuisi-
ton Of the new building in which
they are to be located.
The business is subdivlded into
different departments, each Of which
has manager, and all of which are
under the direct supervision of w.
Gilbert Dent, president. The various
departments are: Sales, rents, loans,
insurance and farms. This firm
boasts Of being perhaps the largest
sellers Of business properties of any
local real etate brokers and the
largest sellers of farms. In one
month of 1928 the firm sold twenty.
five different business properties,
which Mr.. Dent claims is a local
record. The farm business of the
firm is perhaps the most extensive
Of any local firm.
The building they are to occupy.
which was designed by Philip M.
Julien, architect, and constructed by
the c. w. Weller Company, Inc, ie
described as being very attractive.
Mr.. Dent received a letter from the
editorial department of a popular
magazine published in New York
City which read as follows: "Just
as I was leaving Washington, the
other day, noticed the new building
which you are erecting to house your
business. This building has peculiar
merit and 1 wish to ask if we may
have photographs, plans, and the
name of the architect, as we desire
to publish it in orr Magazine" This
letter was signed by a representative
of the editorial department Of the
magazine.
The front of tho building is o1
Indiana limestone, with an archec
window. enhanced by delicately pat
termed bronze grill. The interior oi
the office is done in the classic color
of Spanish tile and wainscot with
Craftex walls and beam ceiling.
