Show SEEN AND HEARD IN SALT LAKE The visitor from Chicago was evidently evi-dently pleased with the prospect His pleasure wnsi betrayed by the smile which lighted up his features Besides he would have been less than human had he not boon charmed with what he flaw Standing In the pavilion at Siltalr he looked out across the beautiful beau-tiful lake of which he had so often heard and now beheld for the first time The glinting of the sunbeams upon Hi dimpled surface suggested the sparkling of countless Jewels lhe breeze which fanned the Chicago mans dheeks had boon cooled by contact with the snow which covered the mountain peaks to the northeast The pavilion was crowded with willy dressed people caper expectant out for a good time Amid such environments It In not strange that a ploayln smllo illumined the face ot the Chlcnpoan It In I certainly a charming place he raid No jiretllcr body of water than this lake can he found In the United States nnd the bathing IH delightful de-lightful A plunge In this lake Is more refreshing than n dip In the ocean and sac for the excitement due to the presence of the breakers 1 should say the bathing here Is more exhilarating exhila-rating than that at the foathore In thu case of Invalids and cspoclil nervous patients the absence of the breakers Is a real benefit us they frequently fre-quently suffer from the buffeting canned by collision with these hUGe waves The location of this lake at a point so convenient and 1 so easy of access ac-cess Is of incalculable value to Salt Lake City I am frank to nay though in my Judgment this fact 11 not properly prop-erly appreciated at present but I have no doubt the time ss lll come and that very soon when the reverse of this statement will be true There are two things the Chicago man went on which demonstrate conclusively con-clusively to my mind that the people here do not duly appreciate the his sings of thin hike One Is the small number of visitors in attendance today and the other la the fact that no trolley trol-ley line connects the city with the lake It may he said that the number of visitors vis-itors Is as great as can be handled with the railroad facilities now available avail-able but that does not refute the point I am trying to make It Is morally certain cer-tain that a strong popular demand for additional transportation facilities would not fjo unheeded very long There are probably > 1500 certainly not more than 2000 people out here today and the temperature in the city Is above Of degrecn With such atmon pheric conditions prevailing If the hygienic hy-gienic value of this lake were correctly understood there would be from 5000 to 8000 people scattered along the beach If this lake was as convenient to Chicago Chi-cago an It Is to Salt Lake City even though the population of the former did not exiotid that of the latter city I venture the aswrtlon with absolute con lldence in Its truth that there would he half a dozen pavilions and bathing beaches within easy loach all connected connec-ted with the city by trolley lines And tlnse places would be cjowded l everyday every-day during the siummer season IN Salt Lake enjoying just now awe a-we I defined boom in the building line Thin Inquiry was suggested by a statement state-ment emanating from a young man who came here from Denver about six months ago intending to devote most of his time to study but who has been so busy since his arrival I particularly during the past three months that he is s compelled to neglect his hooks entirely en-tirely In order to find enough time from his workIn which to eat and sleep lie hi an expert carpenter and for more than a year ns he tins had oportunlly he has been taking a course in engineering at a correspondence school located In an eastern city I had saved up enough money to live on for a your or two said he and having heard 4 > J much of Salt Lakes delightful climate 1 1 decided to come here and prosecute my studies In engineering as I am especially anxious anx-ious to become thoroughly versed in that science Nut caring to give up work entirely 01 let the fact become known after my arrival that I was a carpenter and was open to occasional employment As a result my services have been BO much in demand l that I have had to abandon my studies and I am kept busy pl I > Ing my trade from morning till night of every working day My ahsun aliens convince me that a vast amount of building Is now going go-ing on In this city Most of the work I have done has been on dwelling houses but I know that there Is ns much of a boom In the erection of business Works as In private residences Thctc is one thing to be said regarding regard-Ing the dwelling houses now being erected here which may he called exceptional ex-ceptional and that is they are almost uniformly of a very high clans indeed In-deed 1 know of very few cheap structures struc-tures going up which arc to he used I either for residence or business jnir poscs |
