There are several reasons why real estate men consider the purchase of 39-41 Whitehall by Hugh Richard son a good bu ? . In the first place, the property pays an income of near ly 6 1-2 per cent. The annual rental is $19,000, and the cost was $357,000, which makes this a .053219 per cent Investment. Not many properties is safe as the Kress double store yield a better return. That is, not many properties of the larger kind. The rent bill Is the first Item of expense that the store manager considers. Lights come next With other things following. The rent must be paid promptly, and In any schedule of prices on goods the merchant thinks first of the amount that he must pay out for floor space. The landlord gets his monthly check regu larly. If he owns stocks or other paper he may miss this regular “divi dend.” A large mill may defer divi dends in order to increase equip ment. In the meantime the stockhold er must live. He is paying the grocer and the butcher just the same. Ren tals from a good downtown store proposition will enable him to do it —provided he has a good store m addition to stocks. In the second place, 39-41 Whitehall Is in the heart of the local rental shopping district. It can’t slip back. Its future is ..ssured. Adjoining es tablishments like itself, are there to stay. The plan to bridge over the railroad tracks and convert the waste space into rent-paying property will some day be realized, and then it won’t be necessary for department stores ’and other establishments to move north across the viaduct. T.ie two sections of the city now so dis tinct in location and character will eventually be one. The Kress property is 42 feet on Whitehall, and in the front foot com putation of $8,500, account must be taken of an equal frontage on South Broad Street. The depth is 175 feet, which makes 7,350 square feet, and the price is therefore a little less than $49 a square foot. Hugh Richardson, buyer of the Kress stores from Eugene Haynes and J. Carroll Payne, has greatly in creased his local real estate holdings in the past few years. Other prop erties now under his control are the southwest corner of Luckie and North Forsyth Streets; 56 Peachtree Street; the Scotia Apartments on Peachtree- opposite the Aragon Hotel; and the building between Edgewocd Avenue and Houston Street on Ivy Street formerly occupied by the Franklin Printing & Publishing company. There is an interesting story go ing the rounds, by the way, concern ing the acquisition by Mr. Richard son of 45 Peachtree. This was bid in last fall by E. W. Alfriend for $167,000 cash, the bids having start ed at $120,000. While the papers in the transaction were being examin ed Mr. Alfriend arranged to turn over the property to Mr. Richardson. He didn’t draw on his bank for a cent, but he made a neat sum for his trou ble—a sum estimated at $5,000 to $10,- 000. Mr. Richardson was later of fered $200,000 for this property, on terms, but he shook his head. He's the kind of investor who believes that to hold is to have! * * * Leases Going Up. Just a minute, Mr. Lessee! You had better provide for future years and generations by taking a long time lease at the prevailing market price! Leases are steadily going up. In many cases they are doubling and in*one case the price has trebled. This is true of central property. Think of what happened to the jewelry es tablishment at 37 Whitehall. It had been paying $4,000 a year and at the expiration of the lease the landlord demanded $12,000. The jewelers of fered $8,000, but 'this was refused, so they moved down the street. The Marcus store on Peachtree near Auburn Avenue has been renting for $375, a month. Presto! now it is to be $750. For the new tenants! So with others. Many leases are due to expire this fall and renewals at advanced prices will come. Al so, the long-time lease on centra! property seems to be a thing of the past. Owners are leasin'- for five and ten years rather than for fifteen and twenty. The growth of the city makes this an economic necessity. • 9 * Wednesday’s Auction Pick-ups. Auction sales are always interest ing. and especially when hlgh-clu3s property is involved. It was no sur prise, therefore, to see many prom inent Atlantans at the sale Wednes day which E. Rivers conducted In Peachtree Heights, quarter of a mile north of Peachtree creek and just a few steps off Peachtree. Aboiu three hundred peop' gathered round Auctioneer Steve R. Johnston a in listened to his real estate oratory. It was not the fault of the auctioneer that only out of 42 lots were sold. Nor was the property other than first- class. The crowd just didn’t “warm up,” for one reason or another. Mr. Rivers was determined to sell some of the lots, and this was where 24 likely parcels were picked up. Closet to the “bargain counter” were W H. Adkins. Sam A. Pegram, F. R. Graham, W. R. Bean, H. J. Fear and J Regensteln. Mr. Adkins snapped an a lot on Peachtree Way, half a block from Peachtree, at $35 a front foot, the highest price per foot of the This lot has a sunken garden tn its southwest corner. Mr. Adkins like wise took a perfectly-shaped knoll at the southeast corner of Potomac Avenue and I.akeview Avenue. 247 feet, at $15 a foot, and he got a fine poplar tree and other trees with a $25- a-foot lot on Peachtree Way near Boulevard. The landscape idea seem ed to prevail generally. F. R. Gra ham. of the ('has. P. Glover Real Es tate agency, picked a "sunken gar den” effect in a 270-foot lot which ' cost him $22 a foot. c WELL SUITED FOR PARK COMMUNITY HOUSE J HELP WANTED.

Campaign Launched to Purchase Mozley Property of 38 Acres of Picturesque Ground. By EVELYN WREN. The success of the present park system has determined the citizens of Atlanta to consider the addition of another beautiful park to those which have proved so beneficial to the city. The latest move towards this end is the effort being made to indue the city to purchase the Mozley prop erty situated on West Hunter Road near the intersection of Gordon Street only 2 3-4 minies from the Terminal Station. This beautiful property contains 38 acres of rolling, pictures que ground YVith every variety of tree Indigenous to the Southern soil. The large colonial residence with ninety-foot porch is admirable for a community house. Private Park Many Years. Dr. Mozley maintained this prop erty as a private “jpark for many years and it has not been allowed to retro grade* to any extent. Provision is made for two artificial lakes and these could easily be utilized for bathing purposes. The historic interest in this section is a decided point in its favor. Old batteries used by the Federal army are still intact, on the west side, -find the site of the old Ezra Church is on the east. Here were fought the most terrific battles of the Civil War and here among the bullets fired by their ancestors Atlanta’s children! could play in peace and in one of the most delightful spots of Atlanta grow to sturdy manhood. An adequate public park system is the best protection against vice. Vice is but misdirected energy. If the rising generation has the open air, green trees and the beauties of na ture to enjoy, vice would have a hard fight and lose. Is it not the most appropriate use for the battle ground where their fathers fought valiantly for their cause? With Atlanta’s growth comes the imYrtediate need of acreage for the continuation of her splendid park system. This piece of property can be obtained at probably the lowest rate Atlanta will ever experience. Jt is an opportunity to prepare for the future when the city will look in vain for suitable park acreage. The people are Ynuch in earnest as is shown by petitioners in the first and seventh wards. Citizens of oth er wards have Joined in the move ment, realizing that it is the only available property of its size and adaptability that can be purchased at a wholly reasonable price. Four Blocks From Car. This property. Is located but four blocks from the end of the Walker- West View' car line and one mile from the end of West Hunter car line, which is to be extended to run by the property, as will the proposed Greensferry line. The people in West End are en thusiast/ about t.he proposition and are making every effort to have the purchase of the property made by the city. They point out that this sec tion of the city has been neglected in the way of parks, and that this idea has been prevalent Is demonstrated by the fact that thousand> of signa tures have been attached t peti tions which have been circulated, urging the City Council, to buy the property. Several members of the Park Board are in favor of the plan and there is: every indication that it will have tin approval of the entire Board at its next meeting. The real work will begin before the Finance Committee of Council in roder to get an appro priation. Many members of Council have ex pressed their he irty approval of the movement arid have declared thei/ determination to assist in every way to make it a success. Those ac quainted with real estate values in sist that the price asked by the heirs- owning the property is a very rea sonable one, and < ne expert h^s point ed out that the Fame amount of land on the North > b ' ould cost a quar ter of a million dollars. 185IIl IE Interesting Features of Growth Pointed Out by Witl S. Ansley, Well Known Realty Man. Nearly 200 new homes have been built iri Decatur in the past two years; tlie value averaging about $5,000 per house; the taxable value of property on a 60 per cent basis is $2,025,000; there are two banks and a newspaper, 14 miles of sewers, 8 miles af paved streets, 17 miles of concrete sidewalks, school facilities second to none, and other things of which Decatur and DeKalb County citizens are justly proud. These are the figures of Will S. Ansley, who has his real estate business in At lanta but his home in Decatur; and Mr. Ansley does not hesitate to recommend Decatur as a place in which to live, as witness: “Decatur Is the most remarkable suburb of Atlanta, and it has already outstripped Atlanta in the percen tage or growth. “In 1900 the population of Decatur was 1,400, in 1910 it was 2.600, and to-day it is nearly 4,000. In other words, in less than 3 .years it has gained more people than in the 10 years from 1900 to 1910. According to statistics from the clerk’s office, in the iast two years there have been 185 new houses erected in Decatur, not i counting stores and improve ments at Agnes Scott College, and the cost of these places was from $1,000 to $12,000, and the average cost about $5,000. The prdbent tax able value of the property on a 60 per cent basis of value is $2,025,000. The churches and schools are exempt. The tax rate is $1.15. Tennis Club’s Influence. “Notwithstanding the fact that De catur had two car lines prior to 1907, and had a normal growth, it was not until after that time that it took on new life. Arbout 1907 the Decatur Tennis Club was organized, and among the members were some of the most prominent and influential citi zens of Decatur. This club held monthly meetings and at one of these meetings it was decided that Deca tur must have waterworks and se\\V ers. Out of the membership of the club two members were elected to Council. Then bonds were advo cated to build the necessary improve ments. The bonds carried and the waterworks .was installed and the sewers put in. Since that time two more issues df bonds have been made, the bonded debt now being $84,0u0, and $25,000 sold, l%it not yet Issued. Out of the last bond issue money a ten-grade public school building has been erected and a new school is to be built at once which will cost $22,000. The first school was erected three years ago and the new one has become a necessity. “When the extension of the limits of the city of Atlanta was being con sidered the Atlanta committee re quested that a committee* from De catur be appointed to discuss the matter of annexing Decatur. This committee Was appointed and in tak ing up the matter with the people at that time it was apparent that they would be willing to come into the city. It would have paid Atlanta much better if this could have been arranged, than to have absorbed some of the territory which was admitted. The limits of Atlanta and the limits of Decatur are only about miles apart.. The same Ponce DeLeon Ave nue going through Decatur’s beau tiful suburb, Druid Hills, runs right through the center of Decatur and is I passed up to be paved."

WANTED—Registered druggist, with experience and ability. References re quired. East Highland Pharmacy, Co lumbus, Ga. 5-3 8 Strangers coming to Atlanta to in spect property must be convert* d by the real cstat* man, declares Ralph O. Cochran, of the realty firm that bears his name. The money requir ed to buy 50 feet of semi-central property In Atlanta will buy hun dreds and often thousands of acres of property in the rural districts. This presents a hard situation for the dealer, but he is meeting it. Even as he feels the value of the smaller parcel he must make his prospect feel it likewise. "It is more difficult for strangers to conditions in Atlanta to see anu appreciate value than it is for those who live here and have become ac customed to rapid growth and so- called high prices,” asserts Mr. Coch ran. “Those of us who are in the r<al estate business meet with non residents every day who are inspect ing Atlanta real estate. At first the latter are of the opinion that values are too high—that prices are ficti tious. Furthermore, it. usually takes some time to make a trade with such buyers—they feel that their money should go further. Some time ago I sold a certain party, who lives away from here, a piece of property. He was anixous to buy something in At lanta. He made several trips here, but finally he cam* back and said, ‘1 have come to Atlanta to buy some property to-day.’ His fears had beer, allayed, and he was thenceforth a booster for Atlanta real estate. Rating of Property. “A piece of property in Atlanta, say fifty feet frontage that will sell for $30,000, looks mighty small to the man in the village or the country, where this amount of money will buy hundreds of acres' and sometimes several thousand. This prejudice must be met by the dealer, who knows better than the prospect how much of fallacy there is in the lat ter’s argument. “Semi-central property does not al ways pay a very large .return on the investment. Take a vacant lot or a lot with an old house on it that pays nothing or practically nothing. What is there about it that creates such large value? It is the uses to which it can lie put now or in the future years. The value of property is not controlled particularly by the im provements now on St. There Is a considerable amount of central real estate that now pays only a small percentage on th*- investment. But think of the possibilities of this class of property; whai -an be put on it and the large revenue that can be derived therefrom! With Atlanta’s splendid growth the future Is as sured."
