Homes Now. In Great Demand In Maitland
GRADUATING EXERCISES
The Maitland School closed its ses sion for the year with general exercises on the evening of May 6 and a Health Program on the morning of May . The exercises consisted of an operetta entitled The Rose Dream,presented by the children of the school under the direction of Miss Lena Fugate and Mrs. Allen, musical numbers by the Misses Minnie More men and Margaret Russell and the presentation of diplomas by Superintendent A. B. Johnson. The gradu. ating class included Mildred Jones, May Osteen, Gordon and Thomas Patterson, Teddy Brocksmith, Lloyd Haines and Kenneth Jackson
At the health program the pupils of the Fifth and Sixth classes gave a one-act play, The House the Children Built," after which the children who had kept their health chores were presented with booklets, badges and pins and the Accolade was administered to the pupils of the Seventh and Eighth grades.
The school has now finished three years in the present school building and before another year commenses the auditorium will have to be divided to give room for a fourth classroom. The school will then have four rooms, with two grades to a room and will be in a position to give the best at tention to every child, as the teachers will not be overworked and the rooms over crowded as they have been the past year.
Under the direction and with the assistance of the Parent Teachers As sociation, the playground has been put into good order, with a clayed ball ground and apparatus
The trustees, Mrs. J. H. Bennett, J. W. Rice and J. W. McNair, have improved the Library by purchasing a splendid set of reference books and are planning many improvements for the coming year, not the least of which will be the installation of city water.
MAITLAND LIBRARY CLOSED FOR REPAIRS
The Maitland Library is closed and will be for several weeks while repairs are made and a general over hauling and cleaning is done. Mr. L. W. Dommerich is having the walls retinted at his expense and the Library Association is at the same time having the outside walls painted, and general repairs made. The moss has been removed from the trees and the grounds are being put into good order. When the work has been finished the Association plans to open the Library to the public with an in formal reception, the date of which will be announced later.
Mr. L. W. Dommerich has also made the Library a generous gift of books consisting of ters of walter H. Page in three volumes, The Intimate Letters of Colonel House in two volumes, Robert E. Lee, Soldier, two books of fiction and subscriptions to the National Geographic and St. Nicholas.
Another very substantial gift has recently been received in the form of over seventy-five volumes of fiction and scientific books, presented by Dr. H. B. Boyce of Rollins College from his private library.
Lists of new books as they are received at the Library will be published weekly in the Maitland News so that readers may be informed as to what are at their disposal at the Library.
MRs. RUTH FLEMING
Mrs. Ruth Fleming, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Bennett died suddenly May 14 on board ship coming in to Savannah on her way down to visit her parents. Mrs. Bennett went to Savannah and brought back her daughters remains to Maitland where burial took place last Monday. Mrs. Fleming is survived by her husband James E. Fleming and little daughter Norma.
Houses Formerly Closed to Be Occupied This summer
It is imperative that building con struction be materially speeded up in Maitland to care for the housing of new families coming in. As a temporary expedient most of the homes of the winter residents which are usually closed during the summer months will be occupied this year by new residents who have not yet been able to secure permanent homes. Mr. Clifford Black and family of the firm of Black and Black are oc. cupying the residence of Senator and Mrs. Long who have just motored up to their home in Coatesville, Pa. A letter just received from Senator Long reports that they had a pleasant trip driving through in five days. Mr. and Mrs. F. T. Marsh, who have occupied the home of H. C. Boss since his return to Milford, N. J., in March, are now living in the house on the Blackwood place, recently purchased by Senator Long Underoaks, the Kingsley estate on Lake Maitland, has been occupied since the return of the family to Elizabeth, N. ., by E. A. Upmeyer and family. Mrs. Upmeyers mother, Mrs. Archer, is living in their cottage until her new home on Horatio Ave. is finished. Mr. and Mrs. Haldeman have taken the Pearson cottage for the summer and Mr. and Mrs. Horner are oc. cupying the Wilcox home.
water MAINS BEING LAID
Work is progressing on the laying of mains for the water system. As soon as this work is completed the pump will be installed and the water connected.
sidewalks BEING LAID
work on laying sidewalks in Greenwood Gardens has been come menced with a sidewalk along West Sybelia Ave from the Highway to the school. Sidewalks are also being in Orangedale Park at the south end of town.
PRESS BANQUET ATTENDED BY MAITLAND PEOPLE
At the banquet given by the Orange County Chamber of Commerce in honor of the County Commissioners and the Press, Maitland had the largest representation of any town, with a delegation of sixteen. Messers and Madams E. A. Upmeyer, S. J. Stiggins, J. H. Bennett, J. H. Hill, F. T. Marsh, C. N. Beecher, R. A. Wheeler and L. L. Coudert J. H. Hill in a few well-chosen words gave the toast to the County Commissioners, which was responded to by the Hon. L. L. Payne and Capt. B. M. Robinson.
WEDDING ANNIVERSARY IS CELEBRATED
The fifty-sixth wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Johnston was celebrated on May fourth by a sup: per party at the Maitland Library. The occasion was rendered doubly memorable by the presence of Mr. and Mrs. Johnstons daughter and her husband, Mr. and Mrs. H. S. Thomp. son, whose anniversary is on the same day. After supper the party were entertained with the recitation of Scotch poems and stories by Mr. John McCullogh, songs by Mr. Irving Bacheller, the exhibition of her work in white point portraiture by Miss Edwards and moving pictures taken by Mrs. Selden White of Evanston.
LOCAL ITEMS Miss Georgianna Hill and Miss Eleanor Upmeyer entertained on Saturday at a bridge luncheon at Under Oaks. Mrs. Rosa L. Dickinson has been the guest of Mrs. Vanderpool during the past week. Mrs. Geo. W. Hoyt, who has been visiting her daughter, Mrs. S. B. Hill, . returned last Wednesday to Charleston, S. C.

Council Votes to Erect Municipal Building
WRECKING OF PRESENT TOWN HALL CLOSES CHAPTER IN LOCAL HISTORY
Plans for a municipal building to provide engine house and jail on the first floor with a council chamber above were accepted by the Council at their last meeting and the building committee authorized to commence work immediately. The building is to be placed at the back of the lot where the old town hall stood, leaving space opposite the park for a more pretentious building to be put up later on. Plans offered by Charles B. War terhouse for a complete city hall, em bodying all the features of an uptodate municipal building, were rejected as being too ambitious an undertaking at the present time.
With the completion of the wrecko ing of the present town hall, which is already well under way, and the final cleaning up of the town proper. ty, the last of the land marks will be gone and all the old buildings will be cleared away.
Most prominent among these was the old hall, built in the early eighties and shown on the first plat of Mait. land filed in 1885. George Horatio Packwood, who built this hall and filed the plat, on leaving Maitland bought forty acres of land where the Tampa Bay Hotel now stands, includ ing a quarter mile along the Bay Shore, for around 1,200.00. This he platted, naming the streets the same as those in the Maitland plat, and he now occupies a mansion on the Bay Shore Boulevard on a sixty foot lot for which he refused 200,000.00 last winter. This hall was built with two stores on the first floor, one of which was used as a railroad station when the railroad first went through, a hall for a skating rink, with a stage on the second floor, and rooms above for the first Masonic Lodge in this section of Florida, where the leading citizens of Orlando, Sanford and Lake County came together. The building was later bought by S. B. Hill and the lower floor fitted up for a packing house for the Florida Citrus Exchange,
of which Mr. Hill was the first president. After the Exchange left it was used as a private packing house and the hall upstairs was used for com: munity entertainments until the pres: ent school house provided a more at: tractive gathering place. Next to the old hall stood the Adams packing house, built by Frank Adams and used by him as a pack. ing house and fertilizer warehouse, and further on was a building, used for similar purposes, which originally stood on the north side of Horatio Avenue, where it formed a ware. house between the railroad and the store building of E. Turner, recently
moved away and used for the past
few years as a rooming house for the American Fruit Growers. The store, occupied until its demoli• tion last fall, by J. A. Brown, was used first as a store and later housed the first library in Maitland, established by Mrs. L. F. Dommerich. At one time it was owned by Mr. S. Mills Ely, brother of Miss Mary C. Ely, who remodeled it and rented it out for small business enterprises, after which it was bought by S. B. Hill, who occupied it as a store until he sold out to J. A. Brown. The passing of this group of build. ings, built when Maitland was young and which have survived beyond the period of their usefulness marks the beginning of a new era of growth and prosperity in Maitland.
TOWN PARK BEING IMPROVED
The town authorities have sown a cover crop through the parks around Lily Lake, north of the Library and the central park. This will give a green covering through the summer and will be turmed under later, providing necessary humus for the soil. A number of trees and shrubs have been planted in the central park and further improvements will be made as soon as water is available.
Harry R. Brewer left Thursday for Guilford, Conn., after spending the winter here at the home of Forrest B. Stone.
ACTION ON BUILDING CODE IS
At the last meeting of the Council, F. T. Marsh was appointed building, plumbing and electrical inspector. This action was taken on the recome mendation of the Zoning Commission. Mr. Marsh, who has held similar po sitions in the north, has been of great assistance in drawing up the building code recently adopted by the Council. This code as well as the plumbing code is substantially the same as the Orlando code, except for a few modifications due to local conditions. At the last meeting it was also voted to adopt rules and regulations governo ing electrical wiring and construction which have been adopted by Winter Park, with the exception that the license fee shall be 25.00 and the bond 1,000.00. Building and plumbing fees have also been established and anyone intending to build should in form himself on these regulations and make application to the building in spector in sufficient time to prevent delay in starting his building.
GREENWOOD GARDEN NOTES
Mr. and Mrs. L. L. Coudert and family moved last week into their new home in Greenwood Gardens.
Mr. A. B. Rowland, who has been associated with the Maitland Realty Company as accountant for the past three months, has bought the old Parker house in Greenwood Gardens. The house has been moved onto a lot on Maitland Avenue, and is benig remodeled. Mr. Rowland hopes to have the work completed so that he will be able to occupy the house when Mrs. Rowland and the children reach Maitland the latter part of this month. Mrs. Rowland will remain in West. field, New Jersey until the close of school.
Mr. Calvin Hill has bought a lot in Greenwood Gardens on the corner of Maitland Avenue and Marion Way, where he expects to build a residence in the near future.

AGE AND BEAUTY
With the removal of the old buildings around the station we bid fare. well to the village period of our his tory and enter into a new phase, typified by the paving of streets, the installation of water, the beautification of parks, and, we trust, the develop. ment of an individual and suitable style of architecture. These old buildings, well constructed, carefully built, in their day objects of pride to builders and owners alike, have been for many years blots on the beauty of our town. This was so not only because they have been allowed to fall into dilapidation, but because they were not originally suit. ed to their surroundings. In some countries buildings increase in beauty as they blend into their settings and become a part of the beauty of the scenery. But in Florida there has been until lately no typical style of architecture. In the old days builders brought from New England and other parts of the north the style of architecture to which they were accustomed but which was entirely unsuited to Southern conditions of cli. mate and scenery.
Now, however, we need not make these mistakes. A style of architecture is growing up, beautiful in itself, substantial and breathing the spirit of the Southland. Can we not, as we
THE MAITLAND NEWS
rebuild our town, strive to have all the construction, whether of residence, business or public buildings harmoni. ous, fitting and beautiful, so that our town may conform in architecture to the high standard set by its founders in laying out shady streets and conserving and emphasizing the beauties already here, and thus become the true beauty spot of central Florida?

THE MAITLAND NEWS
AN INTRODUCTION
This is an introduction to a series of articles which, it is hoped, will prove of general interest to the read. ers of this newspaper.
I have thought that, to those who are not acquainted with the business and conduct of banks and banking, a series of short talks with this subject will be welcomed as a means of bring: ing home to you the widespread serve ice that almost any bank offers to its depositors, and give you some idea of the tremendous scope and widespread activities of present day banking.
We are all more or less familiar with the general idea of a bank, or that side of it with which we come in contact when we make a deposit, cash a check, or negotiate a loan. How n know of the many interesting , nga at go on behind the cage? When a check on sonic other bank is deposited where does it go, what does it go through, and how d es it get to its destination? Where loes the bank get the new money they all - try to have, whence comes all the silver and gold, where does all the dirty and mutilated currency go, and what becomes of it
All of the above and many other interesting things will be explained in this column, and it is hoped that the explanation of the varied services and internal workings of a bank will bring this bank and its customers to a closer understanding, and foster a mutual friendship, understanding and trust, all of which are necessary in order that this institution can grow and develop with the Town of Maitland, and render to the town the service to which it is entitled, but which cannot be given without the full cooperation of all.

URING the World War there were certain enterprises whose Securities took a phenomenal jump in value because of the great demand for their product.
These securities were called in financial circles war brides” because happy was the man who possessed them.
