YARD NOW
FOR BIC 18th
ga. CONTEST

Plans for San Antonio's Thirteenth
Annual Beautiful Yards contest to be
staged early this spring will be ten
tatively drawn up at meeting Of the
beautiful yards committee to be called
next. Wednesday by Charley Rush
executive secretary OF the San Antonio
Real Estate Board. The committee
is composed Of John L. Strohm, chair
man; Alfred w. Rohde, @. W. Fen
stermaker, Mrs. Amos Graves and
Mrs. G. G. Mutt.
It Is planned this year to make the
contest cover every section Of the city
and industrial as well ms homes will
enter. Last year $1,000 in urizcs were
distributed among winners and the
contest is expected to be made even
greater this year with civic clubs and
business interests combined in a con-
certed campaign. City-wide interest
has made the Annual Beautiful Yards
contest one Of the greatest civic events
in San Antonio and has done more
than any other one campaign TO main
tain the city's reputation as the "city
Of homes and the best place on earth
in which TO live"
Beautiful yards make livabIe homes.
With this keynote and purpose in
mind San Antonio Realtors are lead
ing one of the greatest real estate de-
velopments ever witnessed in any
American city.
And now is the time to prepare your
yard for the contest. This is the time
OF year when San Antonians lay fertile
foundations for their front and back
yard carpets. It's the time of year
when trees are trimmed, flower beds
worked and the seeds of beauty sown
for in sun Antonio spring comes ear
lier than in most cities and flowers are
abloom and lawns are velyety green
months before the North sees an early
green lgif Early planning will make
n more beautiful yard aud stronger

IN WEEK
Construction Gets Away
to Flying Start as Big
Projects Launched.

The building boom, long predicted
for San Antonio, Is well under way.
Builders have launched a campaign,
which looms as the greatest this city
has ever witnessed, according to- build
ing permits.
During the past week alone, 70 new
buildings were placed under construc-
ton in the Alamo City. They are
costing S644,370. So far, January's
new buildings total 21S with a week
left in the month. These structures
are being erected at cost of 1856. 900.
LARGE PROJECTS.
Several large building permits, in
GLIDING the Texas Theater, a 81, 500,-
900 structure to be built on Houston
Street, are to be taken out at the
building inspectors office within the
next few days. These will send the
January figure 10 above $1,000, 900,
one Of the highest peaks In history.
Home building is also active in the
Alamo City. Fifty-two new structures
were started inside of the city limits
during the six-day period.
DEALS ACTIVE.
The past weeks home building show
ed q gain Of % structures over the
prior week.
New houses started during the past

UNDER WAY IN
ONE ADDITION

That public interest is greater and
quicker in North Woodlawn Terrace
than in other subdivisions, is the opin.
ion Of Ray Mackey, sales manager for
II. J. Shearer and Company, realtors.
Perhaps one reason for this" says
Mackcy, ais that North Woodlawn
Terrace has used up the last avail
able space within the city for a sub
division on the North Side.
@Woodlawn Terrace is 100 per cent
modern. The size of the gas and
water mains we put in was that rec
commended by the public utility com
panies, themselves. All such convent
ences as well as light poles, have been
put in each alley.
Our inquiries from outside OF the
city justify us in the opinion that the
boom in general effect is going to hit
San Antonio sooner than most Of us
expected.
Homes totaling over $4,000 are
now under construction or have just
been completed. North Woodlawn
Terrace opened September /. We look
for an unusually active time within
the next few weeks.
Charles Gillian OF San Antonio,
bought from A. Y. Hayes, builder. "a
beautiful "built-to-order" bungalow in
North Woodlawn Terrace last week,
according TO the office of II. J. Shear
er and Company. The home was
bought before it was fully completed.
Mr.. Hayes reports good prospects and
says he is putting some new ideas into
construction aud arrangement.

5. A. HAS MANY
NATURAL ASSETS

The natural assets Of San Antonio
will remain unchanged throughout the
passing years. Mild winter climate,
unlimited pure artesian waters, sun
shine practically every day in the
year, fertile soils in the surrounding
agricultural regions-these are here
for all time.
The artificial improvements must be
created and San Antonio is building
industrially and commercially, as
never before. But this great city, no
matter how large IL may come TO be,
always will be a delightful place TO
live, a spot where the great out-of-
doors always will be available, city
Of homes.
