Much Construction Underway at | Popular Resort—Several Costly Cottages. The building activities at Ocean ! beach during the past winter and | this spring are strongly indicative of | its popularity as a summer resort. No vear in its history has seen so many homes erected at the beach as will the season which is on the verge of | opening. This year will be one of | phenomenal growth in this summer resort not only in the number but | in the fine class of structures which are being erected. Most of the structures which are being erected are adapted for all year round use and are substantial as well as ornamental. They have cellars, plastered walls and are equipped with furnaces. In fact, they are far re- moved from the ordinary shell build- Ing intended only for summer use. Many of the inhabitants come to the beach early in the spring and stay | until late in fall. Others there are who live there the whole winter. | " The large number of cottages, al- | though many are more imposing structures, are being erected by out- of-town people, who seem to be more alive to the beauties of Ocean beach as a sammer resort than New Lon- doners, They frequently make trips | | there in midwinter and for this rea- | on many of the buildings are being | constructed with a_view to occupancy {in the winter. Out-of-town people | from convenient distances visit their ays of | homes at the beach making a week at a time. Cottages erected recently | high as $12,000 and from that figure | down to the smaller structures of about $1500. The largest summer home being erected this year is that of Mr. Taylor of Springfield at the corner or Pequot and Neptune ave- nues. The interfor of the building will be finished with Leaver board and will have the distinction of being the only one so finished at the beach. Norwich Cottage. A cottage is being built on the cor- ner of Ocean avenue and Elliott place for J. B. Shannon of Norwich. This will be one of the largest cottages at the beach and will be ready for oc- | cupancy by June. Morgan Williams of Norwich is also erecting a hand- some cottage in Neptune park. cost a8 Dr. Jones of Norwich is building | one in Steward street. On what is known as the point several cottages are going up. In the lower end of Ocean avenue just before entering Ocean Beach sev- eral improvements to property which | will add much to the attractiveness of | this beautiful section are going on. Notable among these is the beautify- Landers of ng by Senator George M. | a tract of land consisting of about 20 | | building lots known as the Lehmar | property, extending from Ocean ave- | |nue to Alewife cove, making an ex- | tension to the proper in Pequot | | avenue owned by Mrs. Landers. The | property is being enclosed by an attractive wall and a substantial stone | embankment is being built along Ale- | wife cove. Tennis courts are to be | laid out and the land terraced and | beautified with flower gardens and | | shrubbery | The General Bell residence, | purchased by Raymond G of Hartford, is undergoing exten: alterations and renovations. Old Brick Used. | The first story of the cottage will be brick which was taken from a | in Providence 150 years of age. ged appearance of the brick, al- though it will be smooth will not be dressed, is distinctly novel and is a | yle which vogue in European | villas In Neptune Park, Willlam J. Clarke of New London has an imposing cot- tage under process of construction, as has & Jacob Linicus of New Lon- | don. Mr. Linlcus has purchased two more lots in the park on which he contemplates erecting cottages. Cyrus G. Brown has built an addi- tion of considerable size to the nort side of his cottage which is located o | the corner of Ocean and Neptune | | avenues, and D. Steele is erecting | a bungalow, Thomas T. Wetmore is having | cottages built in lower Bentley nue, one of which he will occupy vear round. -In the same street Miss Flora E.

Over a million Studebaker vehicles are always in use. Stop and think what that means. This enormous output means that Farmers—the men who know—depend upon Studebaker wagons to do their work. . And a Studebaker wagon never fails. It is always ready to do a big day's work—and to keep on doing it. There are thousands of Studebaker wagons that have been in service from 20 to 40 years. A Studebaker wagon is a real business asset. Wheels, body, frame, axles and running gear have been tested and retested by experts. You can buy cheaper wagons but they're not Studebakers, nor will they last like Studebaker wagons. Whether in_city, town or country, for business or pleasure, there is a Studebaker vehicle to meet your requirements. Farm ‘wagons, trucks, contractors’ wagons, buggies, surreys, runabouts, ony carriages, business and delivery wagons- ch the best of its ind. Studebaker harness also, of every description.
