MANY PHEASANTS SEEN THE 3IORXIXG OREGOXIAX, WEDNESDAY. SEPTE3IBER 21, 1921 POUCEMAN OPENS Olds, Wq RAl EXTRA! J.-ETW YORK. SpL 17. (Special.) A turn for enrDenterlnr In Ireland aa a boy st Iwlceman Daniel Murray on ths path to building- the 20 sum mer cottage that form his own little colony at Hlgrsa 'oeach, and the col ony of 11 all-year-round houaea now In proceaa of building at Claaon Point. The 20 summer cottajres " have all a-one up in the last two years. Police man Murray never thought of Koing Into the building business. Nothing could have been further from his mind. But about two years ago he bought a summer cottage on the beach for Ma family. Fussing about the place from day to day he found features of the establishment that did not come up to his Ideas of what a summer cottage should be. Bo said be to hlmaelf. "X shall build one ac cording to my own ideas." In his hours off duty he hammered and nailed and sawed until he had the sort of cottage be wanted. His previous training across the water si a boy stood him in good stead, and his cottage was the admiration of the neighborhood. Sunday visitors came out from the city and, before long some of them were saying: "Won't you build us one?" He built one, and after he nuiit that he built another, and another, and another, until he had achieved the rows of comfortable little cot tages that now line the beach, walks about his own cottage. Then be decided that there was better business than building summer cottages, lie saw people In the city paying high rents, and where their salaries did not permit Mgn rents. i a Joss to find a decent place to live. C om pas y Organised. He looked about, spotted a tract of land on Clason Point! not lar irom his colony of summer cottages, and got a lease. Then he buttonholed his brother. John Murray, and hi rephew. Patrick O'Connor. This was early last spring. He confided his plan to them, and auggested that they join him In the venture. ' "Sounds good to us," they agreed, and the three of them formed a com pany. He fore a great while teams and shovels and drivers were at work evening out the ground where the houses were to be built. In Police man Murray's spare time he and his brother and nephew visited the vari ous army camps where lumber was for sale, and bought up lumber by the carload. Although difficulties in shipping met them, the lumber was at last unloaded at the Clason Point tract. About the middle of July the work was begun on the houses. John Mur ray supervised the building' work, while Daniel Murray was on duty. In Ma spare time, however. Policeman Murray keeps a close eye on the progress of the work, which is the apple of his eye. And what Is to be seen now? A whole settlement of nat shingle cot tages, some completed, others half finished. Borne already have occu rants. One was sold from the plana. Three others were sold before they were completed. Carpenters hustle about the scene, rules and hammers and saws In hand. Wagons drive up and unload shingles snd paint and plumbing supplies. Laborers are at work ' digging trenches for ths gas pipes to lead up to the cottages. Klectrlclans ars busy putting in wiring for the electrlo lights that are to add to the comfort of these houses. Inside the cottages plumbers are at work setting up the bath and laundry tubs, fitting up the neat bathrooms. Houses Neatly Coaatrneted. The houses are arranged with one long room across the front. Behind this come the dining room and bath, ' then the kitchen and ts? bedrooms. The whole effect Is ons of cleanliness and light. The Murrays predict that the occupants will be ready to testify to the superiority of these dwellings to the stuffy apartment, whose rent for five years would pay for the en tire coot of these cottages. Outside the cottages and Inside are Interested homescekers. One lady with two small children approached Mr. Murray. - "How many rooms are there? Six? How much are you asking- for the houses?" "We're asking 12300 cash, ma'm, or ISuoO If paid on the installment plan, 11500 down and the pther thousand In monthly installments." "The houses look just lovely, said the lady, "but I've only got $500 cash and I'm so tired of living In an apart ment. The children haven't got a decent place to play and rents ars so high." "Yes, ma'am." agreed Mr. Murray, sympathetically, as ths lady moved away with a regretful expression on her face. "That's our chief trouble," ex plained Mr. Murray. "People come out to look at the houses. They are crasy to buy to get out of the city, but they don's havs enough laid aside to pay the first Installment. Ve have to aet It at 11500 In order to keep on operating. We want to go right on building these houses. We are going to get more land in ths neighborhood when these are finished and build as long as the present housing situation continues. RUSSIA TO BE PROTECTED ARMS COXFEUEES TO GUARD ALIi LEGITIMATE IXTEREST8. State Department at 'Washington Announces roller Toward Icoplo Vndcr Soviet. WASHINGTON, T. C. Sept. 10.

Walden, district game warden. "There were so many pheasants along the road and they were so close to the road that I could have reached out and killed some of them with a whip." wrote Mr. Walden.
