Ice in Holland “Finally a small portion of}| ice, handled like a precious| gem, was brought and the waiter gazed in awe as the iced water was drunk. Later in the evening when ice was| again ordered, a piece about the size of two fists was brought at a charge of sixty cents.” Holland’s tulips and windmills are famous, but America is famous for ice.

Ave. Main 1267 Beauty and Pleasure at Your Very Door HE SITUATION of the Riverside Apartments at the border of Potomac Park is, in many important respects, one of the most desirable in Washington. There are few vistas in any American city to equal, either in depth or charm, that which is framed by a window in these apartments. It comprehends not only the lawns, driveways and gardens of the Park, and the Monument and Lincoln Memorial in the immediate foreground, but the river itself for many miles and the climbing landscape of Arlington beyond. The Park and the River give to its residents unequalled opportunities for outdoor play. Water for swimming and boating, a course for golfing, courts for tennis and grounds for baseball are immediately at hand. For yet another reason. the Riverside Apart- ments are specially desirable. They are within walk- ing distance of most of the government departments and of the prominent shops, theatres and hotels. The rental rates are extremely moderate. An apartment comprising living-room, kitchen and bath may be had for only $47.50. The living-room is furnished with a Murphy bed which, when notin use, folds into an inconspic- uous closet. Larger apartments up to $87.50 Riverside Apartments C and 22nd STREETS and NEW YORK AVENUE Apartments may be- inspected at any hour. Resident manager on premises. W.
