that section of the city, or are now
In course of construction.
From a broad piazza extending the
entire front and part way on one
side of the house a large living
room la entered, with an attractive
parlor at the side. To the rear of
the parlor are two fine bed rooms,
■with a bath room between. These
are separated by a hallway from the
dining room, kitchen and pantries,
■which are to the rear of the living
room. An enclosed piazza In the rear
completes a commodious and up-to-
date home. The Interior will be fin
ished prettily, with suitable fixtures,
adding to Its beauty.
This section of Americus gives
promise of rapid development from
now on. Within a stone's throw four
or five houses are In course of con
struction and others, It Is understood
are In contemplation. This Is
peclally a home owned portion of the
tlty. The land lies high and leve'
and the lots that are being built on
are all sufficiently large to permit
of pretty gardens. The outlook
that within a couple of years ever
available lot, with which sewer con
nections ca nbe made, will be occu
pled by a home that will be an or
nament to that section.
