Fountain Adds
TOBeauty Of
Chateau Lawn

+. Z 4
One of the most attractive
features at the Chateau lie
Paradis at Amfnendale% is the
ornamental fountain on the lawn
directly in front of the main
entrance overlooking the Wash
ington Baltimore boulevard
Here the spray tumbles and
losses in graceful curves to pat
ter down into the pool and break
into rirples whose music mingles
with that Of the woodland birds.
Water for the operation of this
ornamental fountain is supplied
from two sources, the old well
on the colonial estate and 4 new
one just sunk at considerable
depth after weeks of work.
Meyer Davis is proud of this
fountain, but his pride is sur
passed by that of G.. F. Hayhoe,
general brick contractor, of o26
Sixth street southwest, who
fashioned it from the architect s
blue print and won high praise
for the artistry and complete
ness of his work. Mr.. Hayhoe.
who enjoys a high reputation
for care and thoroughness in
his line of work, also takes
a pride in the ornamental fire
places and decorative steps
which represent his work as 4
skilled and reliable brickworIzer
who needs but a blue print with
a few white lines and measure
ments on it to produce an artist
effect and a "job" that will in
variably pass the most rigid in
spection. Mr.. Hayhoe numbers
among his admirers many of
Washington's front rank build
ers who know that when they
select him to cooperate in a
piece of construction they have
got the brick work off their
minds and can depend upon
having a completely executed
piece of workmanship turned
over to them at the finish.
