Wall paper dealers tall me that the old
time border la almoat a thing of the paat,
writes Hubert Moriia In Building Manage
ment. f Naturally this la not to the liking
of the manufacturer or the dealers.
The prevailing custom of dropping the cell
ing down to the picture moulding meana a
good many dollara to the wall paper men.
For If you were to uae a border at all. you
would probably uae a W-cent border with
a 13-cent celling. So the manufacturer and
dealer are losing the difference on two or
three rolls for each room.
The manufacturer! are giving special at
tention to dnslgnlng attractive borders, with
a view to reviving their uae. but with little
success, especially so, as the price of
wall paper la aure to go up next year. This
year's stock Is selling at about the same
rates for the various grades as have pre
vailed for several years past; but It was
mostly mad up before the rise of price In
paper, colors, and several of the thlnss
which enter Into the production of wall
paper.
The line, aa a rule, ahow a great ad
vance In artistic merit and excellence of
color over those shown In previous seasons,
the manufacturers seeming to find thnt It
pays to cater to a more refined and edu
cated tastte. There are on the market
many papers that appeal to the public
simply because they are odd, even though
ij oddity often meant ugliness. In color there
I seems to be no prevailing tendency. The
" browns and tana, ao muc h seen last year,
are less In evidence except In duplex and
Ingrain papera, where these shades are atlll
prevalent.
In the more expensive papers the fabrlo
effects are largely In evidence. These Include
tapestry effects, tekkes, Japanese leathers
and grass cloths, velvets, and CngH"h fibres
In both printed and plain.
The less costly papers run largely to
double tones. Borne of these also have an
additional printing, which relieves them of
a too severe Ir.grnln appearance. Papers
for bedrooms ara unusually attractive by
reason of there being po many dainty floral
patterns. The rose Is again In evidence,
but It Is not so large, nor quite so highly
colored, aa laat year. The lilac, the
wistaria, and other softly tinted flowers
are vogue.
Vpper third decorations are, of course,
(always in style for the dining room, and
their use Is extending to other apartments
also.
Many beautiful effects In gray are shown.
One or two factories are showing a great
many papers with a happy combination of
gray and green. Very few strong red
papers are noticed In any of the lines, and
only occasional patterns In the once popular
delft colorings. Greens are still prevalent,
and the reason la probably because their
color usually looks well with most furnlsh-
lng. especially with the populnr mission

The week has seen the closing of a con
tract which will result In placing a four
story fireproof hotel a block long by half
a block deuo on Sixteenth street between
Davenport street and Capitol avenue. The
experience of Herman Conn, who Is erect
ing the building, la that building material
U not aa high as most people think. Mr.
Cohn asked blda at first for a building only
two-tl fda fireproof. The blda were to
low that he aaked for figures on a fire
proof structure and the figures aubmltted
were low enough to cause him to. decide on
that type of building. The lower story will
be used for stores.
A 130.0U) church la to be added to the
structuree of North Omaha. It will be built
by the Second Presbyterian congregation.
The decision to build was made during the
last week and the purpose is to have the
structure completed within the next throe
years and paid for.
Omaha's Auditorium Is to be completed.
Many people were not aware that the
building la not at all In a completed con
dition. The bare looking roof Indicates
this to anyone who looks that high. The
roof Is the main thing and the preasnt
temporary covering of tar paper and
gravel will be rep.aced by a heavy tile
roof. This with minor Improvements will
cost about H6,000. Bonds will be issued to
pay for the work.
John A. Doo, president of the Omaha Ice
and Cold Storage company. Is In very poor
health. He will go to Hot Springs to re
cuperate. The handsome new residence of Dr- Wil
liam Arnold will be enclosed with an Iron
!encs built by the Anchor Fence Manu
facturing company. The same company

J. C. Wright, Peter Goos, Mrs. Karle and
L. A. Goldsmith. A revival of the popu
larity of ornamental Iron fences Is noted
by builders In the architecture of the city.

IUSY H
Advice to New Builders
one of the cardinal rules of the life of
Thomas Jefferson was this: "Buy nothing
because It Is cheap. You will find it dear
to you."
There la probably no line of Industry to
day In which the need for the recognition
of these truths Is as great as In the world
of building.
The man who buys a suit of clothes for
tlfi and thinks he Is getting a 140 suit. Is
not one bit more deceived than is the man
who paya an architect's fee of I per oent
and thinks he Is getting I per cent service,
or who cuts a contractor's price 25 per
cent and thinks he is getting 100 per cent
service, or who finally pays fur a completed
building $,0M and thinks he Is getting a
building that la worth $10,000.
One of the most astonishing things to the
observer of building operations Is the
method whereby the contracts for buildings
are made and let on the basis of competi
tion under certain specifications, with prac
tically no tefcard to the business character
and normal reputation of the contractor
who secures the work.
Nowhere does the maxim that "appear
ances are deceiving" apply more fully than
it does in the business of building. This
Is particularly true because the vary nature
of the finished building is to cover up, to
enclose, to conceal.
More particularly so, because we are
accustomed to the Judging of buildings by
the eye and from appearances.
U is an easy thing for the owner of a
building In prospect to say of two methods
of construction, one at a price over the
other, tiiat the lower-priced one la "Just
as good." It Is surprising to find bow
many building owners, who know abso
lutely nothing of building, have never
studied It, do not realize that It Is a pro
fession and a business In Itself, still arro
gate to themselves the Judgment as to what
la Just as good OS something elese.
The average new builder seems to for
get that the prime requisite of a building
of any kind Is durability. He seems to
forget that In saving $1,000 on the con
struction of a $8,000 building, he may be
losing $2,000 In the life of that building.
More, he seems to forget that, even In the
same length bf time, he will be put to an
expense for repairs and replacing of half
dor work and half-made material In the
cheaper building, that will more than equal
the additional sum he would have Invested
to secure first-class work and first-class
material.
The average man who has his mind made
up to the construction of a buttdlng for any
purpose usually goes to an architect, and
about all he has In mind Is that he wants
a certain type of building at a certain cost,
say. for example, $10.0i0. He happens to
know that hie friend Smith put up a similar
building for that sum, and he also happens
to know that his friend Jones put up an
apparently rimllar building at a cost of
$12,509 and he thinks that Jones was beat
and Is not a good buyer.
The plans are drawn, sent out to the
contractors for bids, and the bids run all
the way from ?.00o to $11,000. It Is ten
chances to one that Mr. Owner Immediately
figures that he has gotten Into the building
market at a time when he Is a little better
off than either Smith or Jones was, and
he promptly Instructs his architect to ac
cept the lowest bid, because In each cose
Mr. Contractor has put up a bond that
seems to cover sll the necessary guarantees
that the owner could exact
Nine times In ten he gives no thought
to the character or standing of the con
tractor securing the business, no thought to
his experience, makes no investigation of
the character of his previous work, does
not know what he has done and does not
seem to care. He knows only that the
contractor has agreed to put In certain
kinds and quantities of materia In a cer
tain way at a specified price and has given
sn acceptable bond for the fulfilment of
thla contract.
The architect perhaps has mentioned to
the owner that he would prefer to favor
a particular contractor at a higher price
because he feels that his work will be bet
ter, but the owner eaye. "Well, this man
bids under the same specifications and of
fers a good bond for the work. I don't

A number of nsw brick flats will be

' flats are under way or about to be started
' for O. W. Loonils at Twenty-eighth and

ea why I should , pay $1,000 more to an

He seems utterly to overlook the fact
that these contractors who have figured
are all under practically the same condi
tions as regards the purchase of material
and labor, that none of them has any
monopoly of the proper methods of get
ting a building constructed or securing ma
terials to build with, and he seems to
overlook further the very great point,
which this article Is Intended to bring out,
that some men and some firms have built
and continue to build their business suc
cess on good work, on the philosophy of
the square deal, and that others achieve
success financially by following the oppo
site policy.
Another thing that sometimes happens Is
this. The owner does not take the lowest
bid. He follows the advies of his archi
tect and takes a higher bid, but Inalsts
that this bidder can bring down his figure,
and that he shall do so to get the busi
ness. He seems to forget that he Is throw
ing temptation in the way of this man to
"skin" him on the Job. The contractor
who had put In a fair figure for the kind
of work he contracted for, with the In
tention of living up to the requirements of
good work., feels that If he does not take
the contract and "akin" him. It will bo
given to some other contractor, that he
will give the owner as good If not better
value than the other fellow, and under
these conditions and this strong temptation
he cuts down his figure and accepts the
contract.
Now, the owner and the architect may
both feel that the character of the work
and material la protected by the archi
tect's knowledge of what should be done
and by his watchful supervision of the
work.
But here Is the second point to consider,
that in all business operations of whatso
ever kind a certain amount of dependence
must be placed upon the character and per
sonality of the man doing the work. It Is
absolutely impossible to conduct any line
of business without this element of de
pendence. The clearest Illustration of that la af
forded In cases of embesilements and
thievery from banks. Absolutely every
safeguard that human Ingenuity can devise
la thrown sbout these banks by the law,
by the systems of the banks and by the
combined watchfulness and the mutual
safeguards which one bank affords another.
Tet in the last analysis the prevention of
crooked work depends upon the honesty
of the men handling the money. The finest
systems that have been devlBed are almply
the result of human skill and when they
are devised human skill put to work to
operate against them can overcome them.
New conditions simply produce new de
vices of evasion.
There Is no man so smart, no man so
skilled, no ftian so vigilant, that he cannot
be . overcome by some other man when
given the opportunity.
The builder cannot expect to get from the
contractor the perfection of work he de
sires without paying a fair price that will
yield the contractor a Just profit.
It la the firm belief of the writer that
our methods of building contracting are
surely but slowly being revolutionised to
where eventually all contracts will be let
on the basis of the actual cost with the
addition of a fixed percentage or a speci
fied sum for the contractor's profit
Then, when this condition arrives, the
building owner and the architect will be
very much more careful In selecting their
contractor for his character and honesty,
and the results will ba much more ad
vantageous to the owner than the present
method of setting a premium upon the
ability of a man to make figures lie. .
The contractor who Intends to do good
work, who knows that under his contract
he Is assured of a fair profit. Is ready to
yield to any businesslike methods of check
ing up and safeguarding the Interests of
the owner that can be devised. Like the
honest bank clerk, the more he Is watched
and the more he Is checked up the better
he likes It, because he knows that by this
method his square dealing will be best
seen and appreciated.

The reDort of Bulldlna Inanertne P H
Wlthneil for April shows that 2u permits j
for buildings In Omaha were Issued at a
total cost of H1S.I7&. In April. 1S06. there j
were 112 permits, calling for buildings j
worth 1371,356. The Increase la seventy-one !
Permits and Um. It Is a notable fact '
that out of the log permits Issued only ope 1
called for a building to cost more than
$5,K. Nearly ail were for homes of mod-
erate cost, homes for the moderately well-
to-do people. As a matter of comparison,
showing the growth of building operations i
in recent years, it is interesting to note
that more permits were Issued In April,
19t7, than during the entire year 1900. and
the valuation of the buildings called for
during this month exceeds the total amount
bf operations during the year 1!. During
the first four months of 1."'7 there were
470 permits laaued, calling for bulUinge
worth IUfl.5-ti. During tho corresponding
months In 1906. 271 permits were Issued,
calling for buildings worth tl.C0l.3C6.
