VARIETY STORE
ADDS DEPARTMENT

The opening of the ladies' ready
to-wear department in the basement of
the Piggly-Wiggly Store is the latest
addition to the business section of the
city. Hundreds of people were wait
ing for the doors to open Friday
morning, the opening day. A steady
flow of enthusiastic customers visited
the store the entire day. d. NJ. Gallo
way, manager of the store, states that
only popular priced dresses and suits
will be stocked. IN addition to the
ready-to-wear department there is also
a millinery and piece goods depart
ment.
On Thursday night fashion show
was held. There were nine models
who gracefully displayed dresses and
millinery out of the new department.
According to Mr.. Galloway a large
crowd was present to witness the dis
play. =
Mr.. Galloway secently was ad-,
vanced to his present position as man
ager Of the PigglyWiggly Variety
Store. For two years he worked IN
the stockrooms of the store. Mr.. Gal
loway is assisted by I. G. Hutchinson
and a staff of able and well trained
sales people.

the value Of the dollar based on 1913
is but 65 cents. Building costs and
real estate values have advanced pro-
portionately and during the war, a
housing shortage resulted which how
ever is rapidly being overcome.
ANALYZE PROPERTY.
II learn through data compiled by
the mortgage and finance division Of
the National Association Of Real Es-
tate Boards, that the total credit ex-
tended to real estate in this country
is $24,s10,625,013.
ut seems to me that it is squarely
up TO US to do something. We all
know the danger of appraisals based
on highly speculative sales without re-
gard to income. There is only one
sure way to determine values and that
is by having the property analysed
as to its future possibilities, such as
traffic, business shifts and ability of
property to show an adequate return
over a term of years. This is the
proper way to determine n loan value
and the proper way on which to base
securities dependent on first mortgage
security"

8. A. MPRESSES
VISITOR WITH
PROSPERITY

Declaring that San Antonio was
evincing signs of prosperity on every
side and that San Antonio office
were filled with tenants
above the average for cities Of this
size, Lee Thompson Smith, president
Of the National Association of Build
ing Owners and Managers paid visit
to the local organization here last
week.
While amazed at the signs Of new
construction and progress on every
side, Mr.. Smith sounded a note of
warning not intended to discourage
in the least, all possible development
along constructive lines, but designed
to caution the public against undue
initiation in securities.
DON'T OvER-LOAN.
'Due to rapid rise of real estate
value" said Mr.. Smith, "loans are
sometimes made in excess of the con-
sentative value of the land and i'm
provements. / am not speaking OF the
situation in San Antonio, but in a
general, countrywide sense only. This
applies in general to cities throughout
the United States. Money secured
for real estate mortgage bonds on
such basis often is displacing money
needed for industrial Development and
for conservative institutions. The
ease with which money can be secured
has been Of help to speculative build
ers.
"The situation has now reached a
point where there is active competition
between houses of issue selling real
estate bonds which sometimes leads
to appraisals in excess of sound values,
overbuilding of speculative structures,
and other unfortunate situations.
GUARD AGAINST LOSS.
1--WE all know that the real value
of property is fixed by its net income.
No property is worth more than it
can earn. Therefore the success Of
real estate operation is determined by
net income the property is able to
produce.
"Over production in buildings with
resulting vacant spaces or spaces
rented at rentals less than the cost
to produce is sure to create serious
depression in real estate and rentals.
Loss TO bondholders of unsound Sc
curities will create the impression
than all mortgage securities are worth
less. A large amount Of foreclosed
property will depress values. -.
"The present mortgage situation. is
created possibly, from the fact that
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1925-01-21

ton had them in the hole 27-24. Hutch
and Castle, however decided that the
time had come to loosen up and hav-
ing kept the crowd in the air all
through the tussle they finally settled
down to work and looped in field
goal apiece in the last minute of the
game. Hutch was just going down
for the winning goal when he walked
on one of the Swedes and they both
went down in heap. And then the
whistle blew! The scorer finally
came through with the information
that the score rested 27-26 against
the purple and gold tossers.
The Redwood team received excel
lent treatment while at Benson, both
on the floor and off of it. After the
game they were given a supper by
the Benson team and generally made
comfortable during their stay. 1t is
expected that return game will be
played with Benson before the season
passes out.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1925-01-21

the building were baked when they
found the hydrant near the depot
frozen. Chief Ed. Klein's men hastily
connected the hose to the hydrant on
the First National Bank corner and
soon had stream of water playing
on the building.
From the very first it was evident
that there was little chance of saving
the building. Because of its enor-
nous height, the fire being in the
very uppermost part, it was found
impossible to shoot the water on the
flames with any regularity, the wind
carrying the spray back as it reached
the top of the elevator. Had it been
possible to get hose turned down into
the structure from the top there might
have been possibility of saving it,
but since this was out of the question
there was little chance of accomplish
ing anything.
Fortunately northwest wind blew
the flames away from the west wing
and out over the vacant ground to-
ward the mill building several hun
bred feet away. This enabled the
firemen to separate the blaze from
the west end in which the grinding
j apparatus is located, so that this
equipment, valued at neary ten thou
sand dollars was saved.
Had there been a stiff gale from
the north or northeast the flames
would doubtless have reached the
Lampert Lumber Co., the freight de-
pot, and probably the Hauser Lum-
Der Co.
Mr.. Berkner was on his way to
Louisiana Tuesday evening and was
halted only when a telegram reached
him enroute to Chicago. He returned

Following the banquet there was an
open discussion of matters pertaining
to the judicial system, all Of the at
torneys taking part and Judge |. M.
Olsen giving several opinions which
were of great value to the attorneys.
AS the closing feature of the evenings
program Senator Hall gave splen
did address on the Bar in England,
he having made an extensive study of
English law during his recent extend
ed visit to England and the continent.
The address was proclaimed by those
privileged to hear it as one of the
most interesting and instructive they
had ever heard and of great value to
all students of law.
