His hearers are apt to listen to him morefrom a sense of duty than from any expectation ofprofit, and this is especially true of those of us whohave come from secondary schools where the customof planting the ivy has prevailed, and whose chiefrecollection of the ivy oration, as of the essay of thegraduate, is of a "collection of sweetened sentiments oftearful joy." If the orator has a melodious voice, hesoon lulls his audience to sleep; if he has a harsh andgrating one, be keeps them from it. Aud though 110tthe accepted view, many considerations point to himas the more successful, who, early in his discourse,makes his hearers oblivious to their surroundings.(So I might doubt whether to ascribe it to good orevil fortune that my audience this afternoon is corn­pelled to assume a position not conducive to slumber.)But the enthusiasm displayed in the exercises of this day, notwithstanding the untoward condition of theelements, reveals the fact that your attendance hereis impelled by something more than a mere perfunc­tory sense of duty, and while it reveals an interest, itaugurs a respectful attention.But five brief years ago, on this ground, th.en anuneven field, sparsely grown with prairie grass, itsdreariness redeemed somewhat by here and there agrowth of wild roses and bluebells, and an occasionalpatch of golden-rod rippling to the breeze, the build­er s began work 011 what was to be the campus andhalls of the University of Chicago. To-day, amidscenes how changed, we throng these grounds andmake merry on an undergraduate holiday. We firstcame upon this campus when the University was inits infancy. Now we find it already mature in allthose customs and institutions, which by association,go to make a college dear to the hearts of all her sons,940 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.For the past two yearshere has been the field of ourlabors. The occasion is the completion of that twoyears of work.In all the ways of life there is a pleasing sense ofrelief and satisfaction which comes with a task com­pleted, a duty done. We see it in the usually staidSenior these June days, cheerful in the consciousnessof a long labor completed. And to us, too, comes theglad sense of a task ended, a campaign won. As isthe class day to the senior, so is the Junior Day to us.And 110W, as in the calm of this quiet spot, neath theshadow of this not old, yet revered hall, our knap­sacks thrown aside, and our arms stacked, we bivouacfor a summer hour on the eve of a new campaign,there come over us thoughts of days gone by, and tous comes the query, How have our lives revealed ourcharacter?Wherever we find a body of people having commonideals, common interests, or living under a commonorganization, we note that in their lives there are cer­tain qualities, the sum of which we call character,common to them all, and peculiar to them, distin­guishing and differentiating them from other bodiesof people. Every race, every homogeneous nationhas its distinctive character. In their very lives allthe members bear a common stamp-be it impressedthere by nature, custom, or education. And masscharacter we ascribe not only to the larger divisionsof men, but to their smaller organizations; amongothers, to those groups of persons collected in ourvarious educational institutions. And the estimateplaced on the character of its student body reflects ona college praise and prestige, or obloquy and con­tempt.It is said that character comes only with years, andso it may now be somewhat premature to place anydefini te estimate on our character as a studen t body,but as we foresee the man in the boy, so may we nownote the tendencies which will ripen into the princi­ples of coming years. The character of a studentbody is but the character of one student multiplied.The essence of the unit is the important factor. Aswe pass in 'review our associations for the past twoyears, we find the essence of that unit here to be ofhigh standard. The Junior College student is in­dustrious, earnest, aspiring, persevering, decorousand self-respecting; but 1110St of all, he is industrious.It must be allowed, there are some exceptions. Thereare said to be some...:...-one or two-who suffer from aperennial chronic fatigue, and neglect their work, but'even these are brave, for far from fearing their workthey have been known to sleep with it 011 their hands.There are some cases, too, of lack of perseverance andsingleness of purpose. Students have been known towithdraw from courses in the middle of the secondterm on account of demands made upon them by out- side engagements. You doubtless recall the verystriking example of an outside engagement causingone of our classmates to sever his connection with theUniversity entirely; but the faculty was partiallyresponsible in this case. As to decorum, it must beadmitted that the Freshmen g�t boisterous at times,but we cannot call them ill-mannered on this account,for, since we excuse much in boys that we would con­demn in men, we' should not censure the Freshmanfor not behaving on all occasions with the dignity of .the Sophomore. But as we all know, these are theexceptions and but go to prove the rule that the unitess�nce of our character is made up of those qualitieswhich constitute a high-minded manhood.If we have rightly judged the unit character, weknow that of the mass, and that we have rightlyjudged, I think a retrospect of our life as a body forthe past two years will show..I� must be noted, and it is a somewhat deplorable-fact that on but few occasions have 'We as a college, asan organized student body, I mean, been called uponto undertake anything. But whenever we have beenput to the test, we have shown a wonderful reserveforce. The occasions, I say, have been few, but whenthose occasions did occur, when have we been un­equal to them? When we were called upon to repre­sent this University, when have we disappointed thosewho have its interests nearest at heart, though to nonenearer or dearer than to ourselves. When, I ask, havewe ever failed to acquit ourselves with honor to our­selves, with credit to our faculty and with glory toour college? No project for which we have everlabored has been undertaken under the shadow of justadverse criticism. All has been undertaken withearnestness, carried forward with perseverance-s-whenpluck and nerve were necessary they were there.v-e­and completed with enthusiasm. Throughout.allthere has prevailed a spirit of decorum and a corn­mendable democratic freedom of intercourse-all haveIbeen brothers, of .a common mother, the wealthy stu-dent and he whose trousers will bag at the knees.We, as a college, are by far the largest division of theUniversity, and on all occasions on which the- studentbody as a whole has represented it, we have done ourshare, and w el I. On whatever athletic field, in what­ever public meeting we have been assembled, we havenever done that which has brought censure on our­selves or our college. We have e xteuded a welcomehand and an attentive ear to those who as strangershave come to instruct or to entertain us. Against us,no charge of unsportsmanlike conduct has ever be eubrought. We have ever loved fair play .. "Amongourselves we have acted one toward another as beingwhat we are 'we naturally would act.. Rowdyism hasbeen unknown. The record of the Efforts of all ourorganizations, the glee club, mandolin club, the f1 a-UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.teruities, the societies, the assembly club, the dra­matic club has been a record of successes. In thematter of publications,--that medium through whichthe faculty receives advice from the students, we havebrought distinction on ourselves. OUf WEEKLY andour Cap and Gown lead in the ranks of college publi­cations. The suspension of the Maroon reflects nodiscredit on us. It filled no want; and that it did1101. have our support as a body is proven by the factthat when death came, it was followed by 110 pro­tracted wail of mourning.The retrospect is a pleasant one. But amid thegeneral joy, what discordant note is that? It is thecry of the carping critic: "You have no collegespirrt. For proof, see the meager attendance at yourathletic contests." It has not been my fortune, as ithas been that of the critic, to attend any other col­lege. I must confess my lack of personal knowledge .of college spirit elsewhere; but this I know, thatwhatever plans of whatever nature the students ofthis University, or a number of them, have under­taken, they have been carried forward amid an abun­dant sizzling and effervescence of enthusiasm. Recallthe" color" mass-meeting. What a fight then wason over the old maroon. Five hundred witnesses tes­tify their presence there as an event in their lives.Recall the spirit displayed when we met together ayear ago to return thanks to our patron saint, John D.. Rockefeller, for his almighty million or two or three.What devotion to Chicago and her interest did wethere display! Perhaps we must concede that we do110t show an enthusiastic interest in our college ath-, "letics, but give us only a word there and then see thenew life. Give us the voice in our athletic d,epart-.;' ment which we should have, must have, will have,and then will it have our united support. I speak110t to disparage the department or its methods. Itdeserves great praise for work well done. But col­lege athletics are the students' recreation, and withproper restrictions, they should be ill the students'control. .Yet they say we lack college spirit. I care not toargue the question. Vie have spirit enough to growill mind and body and in love of alma mater and to. �how it when brought to the test. This suffices us.H our critic's college spirit is of that variety, and I:, judge it is, which moves ten men to beat one manbound into insensibility, or to cut the hair off hishead in patches, he is right, we have none of it. Wewant none of it. But we have a love for our almamater-her teachings, her institutions and for thisvery ground,--a love fond and true. Her interestsare our interests, her aspirations our aspirations, her'hopes out: hopes.,_ Such has' 'been our life. It sets the standard forcoming generations and it sets it high. It augurs a glorious future: - It foretells what kind of men andwomen Chicago's sons and daughters will be: bravemen, persevering men, men of high character.And now as we tarry a moment on the threshold ofa new task, begun amid old scenes, we commemorateour passage by planting the little sprig of green' ivy'gainst the gray walls of this great pile. It is smalland near the earth now, but there is an irresistible.force within that knows no limit to its growth and ex­pansion. It is a young sprig now, but it is hardy andhas a good hold in the soil. It prospers in thewarmth of summer, but it can endure the frost ofwinter. Its nature is to climb upward, ever reachingoutward, ever seeking the light. It may live thou­sands of years. So shall be the growth of our collegeand our university. So shall she seek the truth. Soshall she reach out and touch all humanity. So shallshe become the cynosure of all eyes." For decades and for centuriesHer battlemented towers shall riseBeneath the hope-filled western skies,'Tis our dear alma mater."Junior Day.The weather tried its best to dampen the ardor ofthe jolly junior, but surely Zeus, the T'hunderer, ifhe is the god of the elements, was mistaken in' hisman, for like the lilies and the grass of the field,under the refreshing showers, the junior becomes,gayer and greener.The baseball game in the morning between the D.K. E's and the Psi U's was an exhibition 'seldom� witnessed on Marshall Field, eighteen young men inall kinds of suits, ranging from white duck trousersto knickerbockers, ran from one base to another andslid in the slimy mud, greatly to the disadvan­tage of their fancy uniforms. The score resulted 8to 9, in favor of the D. K. E's. The audience, didyou say? Yes, there was an audience who sat andshivered and stood and shivered, but braved the ele­ments to see their favorites lose and win. By theway, the audience was composed mostly of ladies.The farces in Kent in the afternoon were a tremen­dous success, especially the one by Charles SumnerPike. The plot was well constructed and delight­fully acted. It lacked that amateur tinge which sooften spoils college productions. The secret of itssuccess was that it was Chicagoese. The part of theChicago girl, by Miss Marjorie Cook, captured theaudience as well as the young men in the farce. MissCook's acting was-well-she talked and acted justlike the Chicago girl that she is, and, of course, asshe is always, she was charming. Mr. Pike wascompelled to appear before the audience when theycalled for the author, and he gracefully acknowledgedtheir appreciation and spoke highly of the support­which the company had so heartily' given. Miss Ide941942 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.makes a splendid and delightful old lady, an old ladythat you could take great pleasure in telling confi­dences to, and receiving advice from. The rest ofthe company did credit to the author's idea.Mr. Walt Atwood in the monologue written by Mr.Walter Deffenbaugh showed his ability in a charactersketch. His action was natural and easy. Miss Rewand Mr. Brown in " A show of hands," showed thetrue dramatic spirit; both were natural and free.The realism in this delightful sketch pleased theaudience immensely and aroused the desire in manymanly bosoms to become actors ..Miss Kane and Mr. Atwood in their comedy sketch,were well received, the plot was interesting and wellmanaged; and to one without the artistic instinct,there might have been seen something more thanmere actirig.The Ivy Exercises were held in Kent and with alittle imagination the audience could see the hardyivy beginning to grow up the sides of our gray walls.In the evening at Foster one of the most delightfulreceptions of the year was held. In spite of the weather the ladies carried out their places as well asthe space within Foster would allow, and every manwho attended came away swearing. . to attend.the next one. Some people say that some of thegirls wept in the morning when they saw the heavensweeping, lout it was not out of sympathy. Theythought of the time they had spent the night beforein the laundry-fighting-no, 110t fig liting , but wait­ing for their turns at the ironing board, and surelythey had reason to weep. But you could see 110 signsof tears in the evening; it was cloudy ontside, butsunshine was in Foster.Verse to Order.J. P. Whyte, in the class in American Literature,gave quite a severe criticism of Charles BrockdenBrown, the realist, whereupon C. S. Pike, the wag ofthe class, scratched off the following:Said White to Brown,Of great renown,." With one dark frownI'll call you down!

Chicago won. Michigan asked for an­other game, which it won. A request from Chicagofor a third game to playoff the tie was not granted,hence the question remained undecided.This year five hard-fought games were played.Michigan. took two of them; Chicago got three andthe championship.What next? The result as it now is means muchto this University. A definite point in our athletichistory has been reached. Obviously, say some, thechampionship university of the West ought now toset its aim the next notch higher and work for a per·manent position in the most holy circle of easternschools.

Thus, is the with Michigan, one man went along to help cheer outlong-pending uncertainty removed; the supremacyrests where all western supremacy belongs, in Chi­cago.And it has taken some time to reach this point.Michigan and Chicago have long stood-and do nowstand-as the two great rival universities of the West.Especially is this true in respect, to baseball and foot­ball. This year all other ·colleges and schools whichmay be said to play in the same class with these two,and which might claim a fighting chance for thechampionship, either were vanquished or dropped outof the race. The great daily press as well as the. student papers representative of the two schools haveapproved of the plan by: which Michigan and Chicagoplayed for the championship. and inspire a victory, Mr. Gallion, of the WEEKLY,and he, by the by, went for that purpose only: fullarrangements for sending telegrams of the game tothe WEEKLY had been made with the U. of M. Daily.The telegraphic bulletins posted in front of Cobb Hallafter each il?ning by t1;e WEE�LY were read by thesmallest crowd of students that assembled for thatpurpose at any of the five games, although this wasthe one decisive contest. At the railroad station themen who batted out a great victory for Chicago weremet on their return by not ope single student. LastMonday night an attempt W;:lS made to get up a cele­bration, but only a few were interested, there was di­verse and tardy management, and the celebration waspractically a failure.UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY. 945These incidents point all one way. They are not relations that have existed among the different mem-hard to interpret.The WEEKLY has tried to do its duty to arouseand encourage student spirit. The present editorialmanagement, in vacating its office for a successor,not knowing what the policy of the paper is to be,feels compelled to say that the efforts made thus far tobring forth a sound spirit among the students, whilepartly successful, have not begun to get at the realthing, and that a great deal yet remains to be done.Men on the athletic teams will still have to work, asthey have done, generously, and for the good of thecause, not expecting hearty, united student supportas yet. Indeed, a man's greatest reward in suchundertakings is the knowledge of having done a hardtask well and of having developed by that much hisown resources. The few influential students who areworking toward the development of student spiritshould continue their efforts in the same way.Finally, there will be no "college spirit" if theUniversity authorities fail to regard more carefullythe line between graduate and undergraduate. Thereis a choice of two ways. To make the undergrad­uate school graduate in restrictions and in severity ofwork puts a permanent block in the way of " collegelife," as the term goes. The same life may be devel­oped by refraining from many of these unnecessaryrestrictions, rules and requirements and giving to thestudents themseiues a larger hand in the management oftheir affairs.THE CAP ANDGOWN. The Cap and Gown for ' 96 was issuedthis week.

Thepast year's work on the WEEKLY has been pleasantand profitable; pleasant because of t1J.� agreeable bers of the board, and the consciousness of the con­tinual good-will and appreciation of the student body,profitable, because there has' been in the work a touchof practical life. The editing and publishing of acollege journal is not far different from that of the so­called more serious 'class of publications. There isno doubt that .the benefit to be gained from the workis quite as valuable as it is possible to get from anydepartment of University activity.NEXT week being vacation, the WEEKLY will 110tbe published.

Thursday the boys had a halfhour's practice batting Jackson the" south paw"engaged by Manager Stagg to give the boys practiceon a left-handed pitcher. The team arrived in AnnArbor .at twelve 0' clock, and after some preliminarypractice by both teams the game commenced at 4: ISP. M. About fifteen hundred people filled thebleachers, sat in carriages and crowded the ropeswhich extended, 'about half way around the field.Michigan was-the first to bat, with Nichols pitching.Immediately the crowd commenced yelling and keptup a perfect din through the first few innings.Their jeers were .directed especially toward Nichols,hoping if possible to " rattle" him. The louder thecrowd would yell, the harder would Nichols throwthe ball, with the result that for the first few inningsnot a Michigander reached first base. The Chicago" rooters" consisted of substitutes Sawyer and Clark,Coach Stagg, "South Paw" Jackson, two Chicagotraveling men and the WEEKLY representative. Andquite frequently, above the din of the Michigan crowd,could be heard the repeated: "Let him hit it, Nichols,"from Stagg and the" Steady, old boy" from Jackson.Nichols had exceptionally good speed and effectivecurves, striking out eight men, while only one of theChicago players-Herschberger-struck out. Chi­cago started in the first inning to bat the ball, bring­ing in two runs in the first, two in the second, two inthe fourth, three in the seventh and one in the eighth,Sixteen hits were made by Chicago-nine off of Wat­kins and seven off of Miller. Michigan had threesubstitute players-Condon, Kinmond and Heard. Ofthe ten errors charged up to Michigan, the threesubstitutes were responsible for only one of them, andtheir batting was up to the average of the three menwhose places they took. Thus it would seem that theMichigan sympathizers are not giving these men afair deal by charging the loss of the game to them.The victory was due to Chicago's ability to hit theMichigan pitchers and the inability of Michigan to hitNichols, . '- Athletic Notes.The 'Varsity was shut out for five straight inuings, Nicholsproving quite a puzzler.-U. 0./ M. Daily.For the first four inuings Watkins pitched and did goodwork, but the fact that he has pitched four straight gamesagainst Chicago, and that Stagg has kept a left-handed pitcherconstantly at work against his men. made Watkins' de liveryeasier for the visitors than in auy of the previous games.-U.0./ M. Daily.Bulletins of the game were received by the WEEKLY at theend of every inning and posted on the bulletin board in frontof Cobb Hall. The WEEKLY wishes to make due acknowl­edgments to Mr. G. B. Harrison and Mr. F. M. Loomis of theU. 0./ M. Daily, for invaluable services rendered its represent­ative at Ann Arbor in arranging for sending the messages andfor their many acts of courtesy throughout the series of games.The account of the game in the U. 0./ M. Daily was complete,fair and unprejudiced.The accounts of the game sent by the Ann Arbor corre­spondents to the Chicago papers were, with one exception,full of misrepresentations and would seem to indicate that thebig Michigan University does not know how to take a defeatgracefully. These accounts stated that umpire Stagg gave thegame to Chicago to get even �ith Holmes for calling him" rotten" during the preceding game and that the absence ofHolmes, Bloomingston and Lowney from the team weakenedit so that it could not hope to win. The one exception wasthe Record, which gave a full account of the game in fair man­ner, with pictures of members of both teams.The Dual Meet.The first annual meet in track and field sports be­tween the Universities of Michigan and Chicago onSaturday last was a decided success. The audiencewas not as large as expected. Michigan had a largerepresentation compared with Chicago, and encour­aged their men with the well known yell of Michiganwhich in defeat and victory has been heard often onMarshall field.The surprises of the day were many. The first tocome was the defeating of the crack Michigan sprinterStuart by our "Pat," in the hundred yard dash;next in order came Steigmeyer and Neel in the highhurdles, who easily defeated their Michigan rivals.There was a man sent down with the Michigan dele­gation who had never been pushed in the mile walk,and when he started it was thought by many thathere was one of Michigan's surprises, but the craftyGundlach kept at h is heels with his eyes fixed on thequickly moving knees of his opponent. At the be­ginning of the last lap he saw them tremble, and witha smile on his face he increased his pace and passedthe Michigander easily; the strain had been too muchand he was hardly able to finish, while Gundlachcrossed the line and turned and smiled at his pacerstaggering down the course. The Western Intercol­legiate record had been broken and 7,2SYz stands asthe University record. Williamson won the shot put,and Herschberger the pole vault, and Patterson secondin the 220. Michigan had stlr?ri��� also and the oneUNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO WEEKLY.that staggered us was the defeating of Peabody in thebicycle race. Calhoun won the half-mile and aftermuch wrangling and disqualifying it was discoveredthat only one man finished in the mile and that wasPeterson. Taking it all in all it was a splendid trialof strength. Michigan was too strong for us and wefailed to win. The end was a climax, the three lastevents decided the meet. For time Herschbergermade the Michigan men tremble in the hammerthrow. His throw of 102 feet was the best ever madeby a Chicago man; with more practice he will be adangerous man in this event. The final score stood67 to 50 in favor of Michigan. Three points, thesecond in the mile run, were not counted.The North western women tennis players took sweetrevenge last Thursday for all the defeats the North­western men have suffered at our hands in the past.North western co-eds can play tennis if North westernmen can't.Last Thursday the long talked of ladies' tourna­ment came off, and when night fell there was weepingin the Chicago wigwam, for her forces had been de­feated with great loss, and only one Northwesternscalp was in evidence to console the Chicago mourn­ers, and that one dangled from the belt of Mrs. Stagg.A few words will suffice to explain how it happened.The Northwestern girls were in better form, coveredthe court well, and returned everything safely. Ourplayers were brilliant but erratic. In doubles we hadabsolutely no team work, and naturally we were notin it.The scores follow:Miss Craven beat Miss Farrington, 11-9, 6-2;Miss Price beat Miss Rew, 7-5, 6--2; Mrs. Staggbeat Miss Kendall, 4-6, 9-7, 6-2.Doubles:Misses Craven and Scott beat Misses Farringtonand Rew, 6-0, 6-1 ; Misses Price and Kendall beatMrs. Stagg and Miss Mooney, 6-2, 6-1.Credit Due Them.The Divinity School deserves mention for the whole­hearted, enthusiastic way in which it took part in thechampionship celebration Monday evening. Themembers met in a large body promptly at 8: 30 o'clockin front of Divinity halls, armed fully with horns,cheers, and a good assortment of snappy yells. Theyspent the evening" whooping it up" marohing roundthe campus, to President Harper's house, where thebaseball team was dining, and to the bonfire. Earlyin the evening they presented themselves at SnellHall to unite forces with the men there, but the latterwere not in, having shown little interest in the cele­bration.Monday's Infer Ocean devoted a half column to anAll Western College Ball Team, Chicago was given 947but one representative, Nichols. The writer grantedhim right field and the honor of second pitcher. Allthe other positions save first base were filled by Mich­igan men; Cooper of Illinois, having been grantedthat corner. The article also stated that Michigan'steam was the strongest and best trained among West­ern schools. Which speaks the louder, the article orlast week's developments?The first game with WIsconsin was a victory forthe University. Brown pitched a good game, keep­ing the Badgers down to four hits. The next gamewill be played with Wisconsin on Marshall Field,Saturday. Nichols will probably pitch.Kenwood Institute.The closing exercises of Kenwood Institute (affili­ated) occur this week.

D. C. Heath & Co., Boston, announce forimmediate issue Shakespeare's Henry V, in the ArdenSeries. The merits of this series are so conspicuousthat we are not at all surprised to learn that theearlier volumes have received the cordial recommen­dation of nearly every prominent teacher of Englishin this country. The reaction in favor of the literaryand interpretative study of Shakespeare and othergreat masters is far reaching and promises to be pro­ductive of a higber order of work in English.Facts and Opinions, by H. S. Pingree; 2IO pp., 25C. P. B. Dickerson Co.,Detroit, Mich.. Mayor Pingree, of Detroit, has become quite widely knownby reason of his hard, witining fight in that city against cor- porations. In this book he tells some of the facts of the cam­paign and presents conclusions deduced from the facts. Heis a man" of the people," as the expression is, who bows toneither corporations nor politicians, and believes the people asa mass are in danger from the encroachments of corruptingmoney organizations. In its style the book is proved not tohave been written by a college man; on account of its lowprice, its bold utterance and the message it brings, it is likelyto be widely read."

The lack of it the fellow."-Dryden.Park Hill stands in the front rank of New York's residencesuburbs and is recognized by the New York press as a typicalhigh grade, select residence district as well as the best exampleof systematic real estate development to be found in the'vicinity of New York. It is situated on a bluff, three hundredfeet above tides, overlooking the Hudson with its famousPalisades, the city of Yonkers below with a population of overthirty-fi ve thousand people, of which it is a part, and command­ing a view of the northern part of New York City. By a seriesof purchases extending: over several years the American RealEstate Company has acquired this property, now so wellknown as Park Hill, in the conviction that the limited areawhich constitutes Manhattan Island and its adjacent nor t h e rnsuburb must, in the nature of the case, afford the most stableand most productive field of investment for capital. The fol­lowing description of the property will con vey some idea of itsnatural advantages: "From Park Hill is seen a panorama ofmatchless beauty. To the west, the majestic sweep of theHudson for fifteen miles either way, from Tappan Zee to theBartholdi Statue; to the soutb, the wooded knolls aird grassyreaches of Van Courtlaudt Park ; to the east, the silvery glim­mer of Long Island Sound, and to the north, the h istoi ic billsof Westchester. There are few places in the world where aview more beautiful can be obtained. The attention of NewYork's great army of home-seekers has been turned this wayof late. In a few years at most Park Hill will be the center ofthe new Harlem." The best test of the judgment shown bythe management of the company in the purchase and develop­ment of this property is to be found in the opinions of local authorities on real estate and finance, a few of which we quote,as being in point. The president of a well-known New Yorkbank says: "Park Hill is one of the most beautiful creationsin the viciuity of New York, due entirely to the managementof the American Real Estate Company. The credit of thecompany is high and I believe its prosperity has only begun."Auother bank president says: "I have known Park Hill fortyyears. The American Real Estate Company has so developedit as to lay the foundation for one of the greatest financialsuccesses." Still another says: "In creating Park Hill theAmerican Real Estate Company have shown their capability ofhandling the funds intrusted to their custody." .A well-known real estate operator in New York, says: "Ihave been in the real estate business in Upper New York forseventeen years and know the entire environment of NewYork. In Park Hill more conditions meet for successful realestate development than in any other locality about New YorkCity. I am free to say that by the treatment its owners havegiven it Park Hill far excels in every particular any othersuburban section within the vicinity of New York City."Forty-five minutes from Rector street, twenty to thirty min­utes from uptown theaters and places of amusement, by thefast expresses of the Manhattan Elevated and the NorthernDivision of the New York Central, with seventy-five trains dayand night stopping at the premises. Park Hill is nearly fifty'per cent easier of access than any other suburb of the metrop­olis. The most substantial and complete system of street im­provements possible to introduce has been carried out, includ­ing sewer, water, gas and electricity, stone sidewalks andmacadam roadways. In a word no effort has been spared toadd to the unexcelled natural advantages of a spot all theconveniences and attractions of a city. Building plots aresold subject to restrictions such as to make the improvementsof a high order, aud only for immediate improvement. Prop­erty now selling is realizing for its owners four to five timesits cost. It is upon this magnificent piece of real estate andits improvements, together with other properties recently>bought, which will be developed along the same lines, that.'the American Real Estate Company bases its investment cer-­tificates. These certificates, bearing 6 per cent interest, par­ticipate in the surplus profits of the company, which arepayable at maturity.-From the" Economist."NOTE :-We print the above believing it will be of interestto a large number of our readers who have made investmentswith this company.
