' Coincident with its activities and field of endeavors its offices have be- come a rendezvous for out-of-town visitors and buyers in quest of special infor- mation regarding the world's largest market, where to sleep, eat and spend iheir spare hours, as well as what, where and when to purchase supplies and equipment — not only within our corporate limitations but many times entirely foreign to the scope of our activities. i This demand upon us for special information is easily understood when | one Slops to think that there is hardly a commercial, financial, individual or , educational activity of any large development that does not "feed" or "house" (perhaps both) a given number of their organization, and when their purchas- ing agent is in New York City (and our office) for the purpose of selecting necessary articles to "feed" or "house," inquiries are also made for sugges- tions on other sources of supplies, from apparel to blasting powder, and from artificial teeth to pig iron. Mindful that there is need for a buyers' guide and manual such as Visiting New York City, it was produced for distribution to those in quest of just the character of information it contains — to answer the many questions asked of us daily. The list of manufacturers, wholesalers and jobbers is limited and select, representing not only activities of recognized prominence within their fields of endeavor, but reported as conducted by executives keenly alert to increasing the volume of their output — by widening of their circle of satisfied customers. While the lists of hotels, restaurants, clubs, churches, theatres, wharves and other points of interest were selected with care so that "he who runs may read." HENRY SWEETSSON. TRAVEL MUCH?

Founded in 1827, the House of JM IE A R IM from small beginnings has grown steadily, keepingpace with the rapid enlargement of this great vital city by meeting its needs in-dull timesandprosperoustimes with values noted for the savings they afforded. Since its beginning this Store has re- mained under the control of the same family now in its fourth generation. Among innovations originating with FIEARN, some of which have since been widely followed by other stores, are Friday Bargain Day, since 1883 Morning Specials, since 1900 and Great Seasonal Sales, since 1896 These facts are something more than mile- stones of success. They are a forecast of the broad lines of our future development. They also point out to visitors in the city what is already known to our customers by the hundreds of thousands — OlliAIRIKI for Vtdaes VISITING NEW YORK CITY Copyrighted, 1921, by Henry Sweetsson, Inc., St. James Building, New York City. O discover New York — to know New York — is to study New York from its crowded East Side tenements, housing in many instances more than 3,000 souls to a single block, to the palatial residences of the multi-million- aire within its urban boundaries which go to make Greater New York. From the pinnacle of the Woolworth Build- ing, with its fifty-one stories, rising 750 feet above the street, to the tubes be- neath the Hudson River ; from the vice dens to the church sanctuaries ; from the merchantman of the ghetto to the finan- cial prince of Wall Street ; from the Statue of Liberty to the Bronx is one endless chain of ever-changing views rivaling any foreign trip or tour of the Rockies, more instructive and less ex- pensive, for there is hardly a sensation to which the body or mind responds, be it of pleasure or pain, that Greater New York will not furnish to the seeker thereof, and still New York has only been partially explored by the majority of her citizens and but little more toured by her visitors; indeed it is surprising that there are no organized bureaus where we might become better ac- quainted with Gotham, which woula arouse a new interest in her achieve- ments and which would stir the heart of the most unemotional observer into a realization of its greatness. There are bureaus of travel enlightenment that will acquaint one regarding the White Mountains, the Jersey Shore, Lake George and elsewhere, but the clerk be- hind their counters knows little of New York. In other cities Boards of Trade, Chambers of Commerce and kindred ac- tivities promulgate general data on their locality, but in New York their activi- ties are solely confined to the services which they were organized to perform. There are publications purporting to be guide books on New York and vicinity, but in truth of little more value to the visitor than Columbus' chart of the At- lantic Ocean to the modern mariner. In chronicling the worth-while-places of this worth-while-city a brief compari- son will best convey to my readers' mind the magnitude of its attainments and operations, statistics of which would be dry reading but available at the office of publication for those who challenge comparisons. Every school child knows that the land upon which New York was built was traded by the Dutch Government from the Indians in 1626 for a quantity of red cloth and beads valued at about $25.00, but it is interesting to know that property to-day is worth, in some locali- ties, over $800.00 per sq. ft., which records the greatest increase in real estate values on earth. Greater New York comprises five boroughs within the Liberty Statue — LiOwer Bay In New York harbor, one and three- quarter miles south of Battery Park Pier, from where one may take the hourly boat (round trip 2.5e), the Statue of Liberty, Prance's gift to America, occupies a com- manrling position on Liberty Island. The admission to the statue is free and the ele- vator will take one to the upper stairs. The lighting of the Liberty torch takes place simultaneously with the flash of the "sunset gun" in the harbor. VISITING NEW YORK CITY Battery Park All historic spot which is said to have been tlio favorite wallf for ■Washington when he was President. At the left of the Iiictnre towers the Whitehall Bldg., tho largest structure in that section. Still further west is the Aquarium (illustrated below) and adjoining is the dock of the Coney Island boat. State, but, as a matter of fact, Greater New York covers not only Manhattan, the Bronx, Brooklyn, Richmond and Queens Boroughs but extends, theoreti- cal^- into that section of New Jerse]" embracing Hoboken, Newark, Jersey Gty and the Oranges, because while these are separate municipalities they are in reality' only transportation ter- minals, manufacturing and residential outgrowths of New York proper, giviiig this district a population of about 10,000,000 people, with an annual expense of maintenance exceed- ing that of Spain and Italy combined. It is interesting to note that within commuting distance of the city there are 256 distinct suburbs or municipalities repre- senting the overflow of Manhattan. New York has a greater manufacturing wealth than all of the New England States. Its daily bank clearances are nearlv twice those of London, England, and it has more miles of underground railroad than all of the rest of the world combined. Greater New York has more railroad yards and wharf capacity than London, Liverpool, Montreal and Sydney combined, made necessary for its immense export, import and inter- transit freight and passenger service. ^ Within our portals is a greater Irish people than in Dublin, more Jews than in Jerusalem, more Italians than in Rome, more Spaniards than in Valpai- riso and more Germans than in Bremen. In fact, there is not a nationality of the civilized world that is not represented in New York, for it must be remem- bered that three-fourths of its popula- tion is foreign born. There are more passengers riding on the subways, elevated and surface trans- portation lines of this city daily than on all of the steam railways of the United States. In politics the patron- age and responsibility of the Mayor of New York is second only to the Presi- dency of the United States, while the Police and Fire Departments alone are of greater strength than the total mili- tarv organization of Mexico and Brazil. Although this city is much advertised for its vice and graft, it is interesting to note that, in proportion to its popu- lation, less arrests are made daily than in any large city of the Western Hem- isphere. This favorable condition is also true of its Health Department, the records of which show that the city has a lower death rate percentage than Bos- ton, Washington, Kansas City or San Francisco. For fire and health protec- tion New York has ample and good water storage reservoirs ; in fact the The Aqunrium This building in Battery Park houses the largest aqua- rium In the world. Originally it was a fort called Castle Clinton. In 1823 it was converted into an opera house, where Jenny Lind sang for the first time in this country. For many years it was called Castle Garden and was famous as a landing and reception place for the emigrants arriving at the port. It is open to the public daily; ad- mission Is free. VISITING NEW YORK CITY St. Paul's Chapel General Washington worshipped in this old church, which was built in 1706 and its spire completed in 1794. It is a quaint, old- fashioned breathing spot in the midst of the whirl and turmoil of one of the busiest sections of lower Broadway. Trinity Church is just to the south on Broadway. Both of these old houses of worship and graves surrounding them are points of interest. supply is sufficient to quench the thirst of all the English speaking races of the world, should they be housed within our borders. New York is second to no city in the world in the number or elegancy of its hotels, which have a guest capacity equaling the total population of Rich- mond, Va., Tacoma, Wash., and Des Moines, Iowa. Some conception of the quantity of food consumed daily by oiir population may be realized when it is remembered that statisticians estitnate that it would take one train of freight cars sixteen miles long daily to supply our citizens with vegetables, meats and cereals. There is more money paid to the daily wage earners than the total payroll of Paris and London combined, and is spent in like proportion. In pleasure alone we contribute more of our earnings than gay Paree and Lon- don town. Recently a theatre's one sea- son box office receipts amounted to $10,000,000, while Coney Island has more daily visitors in a season than all the other seaside resorts of America. Like a well-cut diamond of great bril- liancy, New York has many facets, each fantastically interesting, each super- lative in its own way and to the stranger wilhin our gates is an opportunity for endless and long to be remembered en- joyable hours while discovering New York City. The more important objec- tive points are briefly described under their various captions in the pages that follow. Chamber of Comin.erce Building: This organization occupies the building at 67' Liberty St. and is the oldest com- mercial corporation in the United States (1770). Its many valuable portraits of emi- nent citizens makes it a point of interest. Application for admission should be made through the Secretary or through some member. VISITING NEW YORK CITY :T5*.'< '' ' f ■ Nc'W York Clearing A beautiful huililiiiR of wh Italian Keiiaissanci'. In the safe that can hold 210 tons HOW WALL STREET WAS NAMED j This street was a wall of defense erected in 1662 by the Dutch Col- ony; the space between the wall and the buildings taking the name of Wall Street, just as Maiden's Path (a favorite walk for young people in Colonial days) took the name of Maiden Lane. From a residential street Wall Street changed to a business thoroughfare, then to a commercial ^ centre, where the fa- mous "slave market" stood before the Revo- lution, also the City Hall, in which the First Congress assembled. To- day it is the financial headquarters of not only New York City but America as well. The Stock Exchange, the Sub-treasury, the fa- mous Seaman's Church Institute (which is a hotel, bank, employment bu r e a u , school and church all in one, for seafaring men) are lo- cated on this street, be- sides the banking house of J. Pierpont Morgan & Co. I louse ite uiarlile in l);i semen t is a of }i0l(l. SUB-TREASURY The United States Assay Office is at Wall and Nassau Sts., and is a branch of the (National Treasury. It performs all the functions of a mint, except the actual stamping of the coin. It carries more gold bullion on deposit than any other building in America, except the United States Treasury at Washington. It was erected originally for the Cus- tom House, which outgrew the struc- ture. It occupies the site of Federal Hall, where assembled the First Con- gress, at which George Washington took the oath of President of the United States, and where once was located the Debtors' Prison. BOWLING GREEN This is "a small triangular space at the foot of Broadway and is the oldest park in the city. It was used by the Dutch as a colonial drill ground. Here was erected the leaden statue of George the Third, which was dismantled in 1776 and converted into bullets to welcome the Redcoated Invaders. At Wall and Nassau Streets Tliei Bronze statue of Washington on the steps of the ITnited States' Sti I) -Treasury marks -whi're Washington took his oath of ofHce on April 30, 1789. Here it was that the bomb outrage of 1920 was committed. In the background is Trinity Church, with its historical grave yard. VISITING NEW YORK CITY PROMINENT COMMERCIAL BUILD- INGS The largest office building in the world is the new Equitable Building on lower Broadway. It is 36 stories high. Next in size is the Hudson Terminal Buildidng at SO Church St., which holds 50,000 employes and is 22 stories high. Here is located the main entrance to the Hudson Tubes. Opposite the Equitable Building is the Singer Building, which for several years was the tallest office structure in New York City. The tallest building to-day is the Woolworth Building opposite the Post- office and Citv Hall Square; from the tower of which a wonderful view is ob- tained. Probably the building that is best known for the longest period is the p^old domed World Building on Newspaper Row. Facing Madison Square are two well known office buildings. The Metropoli- tan because of its size and tower and the Flatiron Building because of its pe- culiar shape which gave it its name. The Stock Exchange Building is at No. 10 Broadway. The Produce Exchange faces Bowl- ing Green, and the Qearance Hotise is at Beaver St., just east of Broadway. GOVERNOR'S ISLAND This military station, from which is fired the "sunset gun" daily, is located just south of the Battery and was erected in 1811. Castle Williams is the name of the round and ancient fort on this island, and it has great picturesque value, though of no practical value as a fort. The formidable guns that look out over the parapet are out-of-date monsters that were useless long before the last horse car ceased to run. Castle "Bill," as it has been called by our soldiers, was used as a military prison during the Great War, and great mili- tary hospitals were located on the island at that time.

''*® VISITING NEW YORK CITY City Hall Park and Newspaper Row To the right is Newspaper Row, hallowed in traclitioii and steeped in the memories of the famous newspapermen of the new world. VISITING CHINATOWN Chinatown, embracing mainly Mott, Doyers and Pell Streets, is perhaps the most quaintly foreign of all New York sections. Western manners and meth- ods have left their impressions on most of our foreign quarters, but not so on Chinatown. Here the "heathen Chinee" goes his curious and colorful way as though he was still in the heart of his beloved Flowery Kingdom. The queer stores and bazaars that line the narrow, twisting and winding streets, breathe the very breath of Orientalism, and are permeated with the inimitable aroma of the Far East and the perfumes of Cathay. The visitor had better have a guide, if he intends to see thi.e section properly. The joss houses and other points of interesting mystery are open to visitors, and the heavy fumes of the incense sticks make the air lan- guidly odorous and redolent of the oldest civilization on the face of the earth. FRAUNCE'S TAVERN At the corner of Broad and Pearl Sts., a buildidng erected in 1700 was used as i stop ping place for travelers. Here General Washing- ton took leave of his officers at the time he surrendered his com- mission to Congress. CITY BUILDINGS The City Hall built in 1812 containing the offices of the Mayor, the President of the Borough of Manhattan, the City Clerk and other officials, is located at City Hall Park. The Tombs (a nickname for the City Prison) and the Criminal Courts are on Centre St., connected by the Bridge of Sighs. The Hall of Records is at the corner of Chambers and Centre Sts. The Appellate Court is at Madison Ave. and 25th St. The Municipal Building faces the City Hall and Hall of Records and it is here that the Boards of Elections, Water ".iipnlies, Licenses, Educational and Pub- lic Charities have their headquarters. The Police Headquarters are located at 240 Centre St. The Detective Bureau is located at Dclancey and Clinton Sts. The Children's Court is at 137 East 22nd St., while another is at 355 East 137th St. The Woman's Night Court is at 6th Ave. and 10th St. And the Men's Night Court is at 151 East 57th St. (where the human side of night life in a great citv will prove instructive). The District Attorney's Office for Manhattan is located in the Criminal Court Building. For the Bronx, at Ar- thur and Tremont Aves. The City Trade Extension Rooms are at 209 East 23rd St. The Bureau of Franchises Office is in the Municipal Building. The^ Marriage License Bureau is lo- cated in the Municipal Building. Custom House at the Foot of Broadway Erected In 1917 and occupips the site of the original log- blockbouse, which was a trader's fort in the beginning of the seTenteenth century. VISITING NEW YORK CITY City Hall and Municipal Building i The City Hall, although dwarfed by the surrounding structures, is still one of the finest architectural examples in the city. ! POINTS OF INTEREST AROUND NEW YORK West Brighton Beach and Brighton are favorite beaches of Brooklyn Heights, with bath houses and amuse- ment parks. This beach may be reached by elevated cars at Brooklyn Bridge or by trolley cars from Coney Islan i. Im- mediately east of Brighton Beach is Manhattan Beach, v^rith all the attrac- tion of ocean side resorts. Rockaway is the oldest seaside resort of the City and can be reached by the Long Island Railroad, Brooklyn trolley cars or by steamboats. To the north of New York City is Yonkers on the Hudson River with a population of 100,000 people; to the east is Mt. Vernon, a residential city of 30,000; to the southeast is Win- chester, a historical village. New Ro- chelle is about 15 miles east of New York City and has a population of about 30,000 people. It may also be reached by trolley from Mt. Vernon. Here are preserved many interesting relics of Colonial days. Jersey City op- posite of New York, on the Hudson River, is an important manufacturing and transportation point connected with New York City by tunnel and ferry. It has about 275,000 populaticM, Ho- boken to the north of Jersey City is likewise a manufacturing and shipping point ; it was from here that our boys embarked for France in 1917 and 1918. Weehawken, to the north of Hoboken, was prominent in Revolutionary days. It was in this historical town that Alex- ander Hamilton lost his life in the duel with Aaron Burr, PUBLIC RECREATION PIERS During the season when the weather is oppressive the city maintains band concerts at seven recreation piers, and permits the public to avail themselves of these entertainments as well as fish- ing, dancing, etc. The location of these piers on the East River are at the foot of Market St.. 3rd St., 23rd St., 4th St. and 112th St., while on the North River they are located at the foot of Barrow St., 50th St. and 129th St. TOURING THE WATER FRONT During the season there are observa- tion yachts running on regular sched- ules, touring the water front from the Palisades on the Hudson to Blackwell's Island on the East River, while there is one observation boat that continues the trip through the Harlem and North River, making a complete circuit of the city. Stock Exchange 10-12 Broad Street, built of selected Geor- gia marble, and is 123 feet in height. The statutary in the facade is among the finest of its kind in this country. The Stock Exchange consists of 1100 members. The Exchange was first organized In 1792 by a gronp of brokers. The membership is Umited and wortb a small fortane. VISITING NEW YORK CITY 1 Typical Docks on the Hudson River These docks and piers are magniflcent in conception and in their vast distances, emi- nently fitting to he the last stop before reaching London, Paris, Rome, and other great centres of the old world. NEW YORK POST OFFICE The Old Post Office Building is at Broadway and Park Row, and the new one on 8th Ave. between 31st and 32nd Sts. Deliveries to hotels, 7 :45 A. M., 9:20 A. M., 10:40 A. M., 12:15 noon; 1:15 P. M.. 3 P. M. and 4:15 P. M. General delivery at Main Post Office. Visitors are advised to have their mail delivered at their hotel. PUBLIC COMFORT STATIONS Toilets for the convenience of the public are to be found at the following locations : Abinpdon Square, Battery Park, City Hall Square, Chatham Square, Greeley Square, Hanover Square and Long Acre Square ; also at the corners of Fulton and Williams Sts., Delancey and Sheriff Sts., Third Ave. and 129th St., at the approach to the Willis Ave. Bridge and in all Subway Stations. There is also a comfort sta- tion at the rear of the Public Library Building at 42nd St. and 5th Ave. FERRY CONNECTIONS Manhattan, being an island, is con- nected to the mainland by adequate ferry service at every available _ point. Some of the most important ferries are as follows: Astoria— Ft. of E. 92nd St. Blackwells Island— Ft. E. 26th and 53rd. Brooklyn — Ft. E. 23d to Greenpoint. Ft. Fulton to Fulton St. Pier 2 E.

W. 42d St. Broadway at City Hall Park Where the crowds teem their way through the canyon-like street; a notable contrast with upper Broadway, where the pleasure-loving throngs make the sidewalks almost impassable. VISITING NEW YORK CITY Approach to Manhattan Bridge The plaza to the Manhattan Bridge marks a new epoch in bridge architect, combining, as it does, utility with classic beauty. Its location is just off from the heart of the Bowery. NEW YORK'S FAMOUS TUNNELS Probably the best known of the river tunnels of New York is the McAdoo Tube, which is operated by the Penn- sylvania Railway connecting its New York depot with the West Hudson shore. Next in importance is the Hud- son Tube, which connects the State of New Jersey with (New York at Chris- topher St., having several stations be- tween Wall and 33rd Sts., which en- ables rapid transit between New York, Hoboken, Jersey City, Newark and Man- hattan Transfer. The Battery Tun- nel under the East River extends from the Battery to Joralemon St. in Brook- lyn. The Belmont Tun- nel connects New York at 42nd St. and Lex- ington Ave., with Jack- son Ave. in Long Island City. The Montague Street Tunnel connects Whitehall St. in New York to Montague St. in Brooklyn. The Old Clark Street Slip con- nects lower Manhattan with Clark St. in Brook- lyn. The 14th Sti eet Tunnel connects Ntw York at that point with 7th St. in Brooklyn, while the 60th Street Tunnel connects that section of New York with Queensboro Plaza in Long Island City. NEW YORK'S RAILWAY DEPOTS The two largest depots of the world ! are located in New York City; the I Grand Central Terminal at Park Ave. ; and 42nd St. is unique in that it occu- pies a total area of seventy-nine acres, with many levels, having a capacity for about 1,200 passenger cars. The build- ing proper is 300x600 feet and over 100 feet in height. All trains therein are moved by electricity. The Pennsylvania Station is 430x785 feet and 153 feet hiph. It occupies two entire blocks from 7th Ave. to 8th Ave. and from 31st to 33rd ^ St., while underlying and adjoining ^ yards cover nearly six city blocks. All W trains are moved electrically, and this •M depot is connected by the twin tubes -* under the Hudson River with the Jer- sey shore and great terminal yards there. The Central Railway of New Jersey Depot is located in Jersey City and reached by ferry at the foot of Liberty St. or West 23rd St. The Erie Depot is also in Jersey City, but reached via the Hudson Tube at any of their entrances between Chambers and 33rd Sts. The Lackawanna Depot is in Hobo- ken, reached via ferry at Barclay, Chris- topher or 23rd Sts., or by the Hudson Tube. The Staten Island Rapid Transit De- pot is at the foot of Whitehall St. The West Shore and Ontario and Western Depots are at Weehawken, N. J., reached via ferries at foot of Cortland and West 42nd Sts. And the New York, Westchester and Boston Station at 132nd St., via Third Ave. Elevated Road. Manhattan Bridgre Total length of this bridge is 6855 feet. It is of double- deck design, and extends out of the heart of New York's east side just off of Chinatown. 10 VISITING NEW YORK CITY A Glimpse of tlie Bowery The Bowery is no louj^er lined with the desperate resorts that were tlu're of old. It is now a respectable business street and becoming more popular every year. CONVENTION ACCOMMODATIONS New York is the ideal convention point of America, with innumerable halls throughout the City while many of New York's hotels have large and well equipped banquet rooms for convention use, with capacity from 100 to 2,000 people. SEEING BROADWAY By all means a visitor to this city should see its most famous thor- oughfare — the longest avenue in the world. This can be economi- cally accomplished by taking a lower Broad- wiay surface car, from Bowling Green and transferring at 42nd St. to the upper Broadway cars.

BRIDGES Anyone interested in the wonderful accom- plishment in modern en- gineering should inspect the seven famous bridges that span the East River. The Brooklyn Bridge is probably the best known and con- nects Brooklyn with downtown New '^'ork at the City Hall Square. It carries the bulk of the Brookhn traffic, and has been one of the principal show places of New York. It was com- menced in 1870 and opened for traffic in 1883. Its extreme length is 5,889 ft. Its river span is 1,596 ft. Its height is 135 ft., width 85 ft., and cost $22,500,000. Next in importance is the Williamsburg Bridge which was com- menced in 1896 and finished in 1903. It is the greatest suspension bridge in the world. Its total length being 7,200 ft., and its main span 1,600 ft. Its width is 118 ft., its height above the river 135 ft, and cost $25,000,000. It is located just north of Brooklyn Bridge. Queens- boro Bridge connecting Brooklyn with East 59th St., with a total length of 8,600 ft. It is of a different type than the two previously mentioned bridges, the former two being of the suspension type and this being of cantilever type ; it represents an investment of $18,000,000. Manhattan Bridge is probably the most architectural design of New York's fa- mous bridges. This structure was com- menced in 1901 and opened to foot pas- sengers in the Spring of 1910. It con- nects the Bowery with Brooklyn ; the approach being illustrated herein. $26,- 000,000 was spent in its erection. Hell Gate Bridge, from an engineering point, is probablv the greatest accomplishment in 'New York bridge construction. It cost $27,000,000, connects 141st St. with Long Island and is the short cut for freight and passenger train service on transcontinental trips. Washington Bridge, from 181st St., Manhattan to Aqueduct Ave., in the Bronx, and High Bridge in the vicinity (used for carry- ing the Croton Aqueduct water supply in Manhattan) are both well worth a visit.

VISITING NEW YORK CITY 17 CONEY ISLAND Coney Island has been called the play- ground of New York, and there is no question that it is the largest resort of its kind in the world. Here, during the season, are found strange playfellows — rich and poor, quality and trash, patri- cian and plebeian. The walls of caste are razed at Coney Island, the only question that is asked of a visitor being: "How much noise can you make?" They are also somewhat interested in how much money the visitor has brought along, but this last is not so all-essen- tial, because it is truly surprising with how little the person who knows the ropes can get along here. During the hot season Coney Island daily entertains more pleasure seekers than the entire population of many of our good-sized cities. Surf Avenue, its main street, is a noisy and colorful bed- lam of attractions, eating and drinking places, and "ballyhoo" men, which is the name given to the barker who, mounted on rostrums before their vari- ous shows, attract the crowd by the might of their lungs and by the means of clever and ingenious devices. At the end of Surf Avenue is the beach — probably the most crowded, the merriest and maddest beach in all the world. Just below the entrance to the beach is the Municipal Bath House, which has a capacity of seven thousand people at one time, where the only charge is ten cents for use of lockers, checking valuables, etc. This is a magnificent building of Roman lines and looms over the ocean like a temple on one of the original seven hills of Rome. Luna Park has been called the heart of Coney Island. It was built eighteen years ago by Thompson and Denby, who won fame at the Pan-American Exposition, and was the finest thing of its kind in the world then. It still is, although it has passed from the hands of the original owners since then. Luna Park contains what is perhaps the largest ball room in the world. It is more than a city block in area, and its glittering, pol- ished surface reflects the myriad colored lights like a mid- nght pool shot through with all the gradations of the rainbow. Other parts of Coney Island, not so crowded and rather more particular in the company they keep, are Manhattan Beach and Brighton Beach. The old Brighton Beach Race Track is now an aviation field. Coney Island can be reached by tak- ing the new Subway express train at Brooklyn Bridge ; a slower but pleasant way is by boat from the Battery; or if one wishes to see the Hudson River waterfront, by the same boat from 129th Street. PROMINENT MARKET PLACES Washington Market, established in 1812, is at West and Fulton Sts., and covers one square block. It is the largest retail market in the City and well worth one's time to visit as a point of interest. Easily reached by Elevated Railroad or Hudson Tunnel, being just a short distance from either. The Fulton Market, at Fulton St. and East River, is the largest wholesale fish market in the world. Wallabout Market in Brooklyn is the largest market in the world, containing, as it does, 36 acres.

The Cathedral of St. John the Divine, now heinpr constructed on Morninjjside Heights, hptwcen 110th and 113th Sts.. will he. when completed, the grandest ecclesiastical edifice in America. The corner stone was laid in 1892 and there is no definite promise as to its probable date of completion. However, a por- tion is open to worship, and the pipe organ is supposed to be the finest ever erected, making it a strong inducement for Protestant Episcopalians to worship therp. Services at 8, 10, 11 and 4 o'clock on Sundavs. StL Pat'rick's Cathedral at 50th St. and 5th .Ave. is the most magnificent Roman Catholic Church in thp TTtiited States. The building cost ?;2.000.000 ex- clusive of the ground. The church is open all dav. St. Mark's Church (Protestant Epis- copal) is located at 10th and Stuyvesant Sts. This edifice is the second oldest church in Manhattan and the oldest con- gregation in the citv. Beneath the foundation rests the body of Peter Stuy- vesant, as well as the remains of many other old time prominent New Yorkers. Services are at 8, 11 and 4 o'clock on Sundays. Trinity Episcopal Church, on Broad- wav facin? Wall St., was originally built in 1697 and frequentlv reconstruct- ed since. The present edifice has been standing for seventy odd vears. In its church yard lie the remains of many prominent Americans, among them bein PQ 30 VISITING NEW YORK CITY HOW TO FIND A STREET AND NUMBER To find what street is nearest any given number in Manhattan, take the number, cancel last figure, and divide by 2, add the key number found below.

Yesterday we visited Paris for the latest creations in women's apparel, today New York design- ers consider Paris fashions pasee. Be- cause of war conditions the exquisite per- fumes for which Prance was famous are now prepared in Gotham and exported to France for distribution. This year finds more Oriental rugs offered for sale in New York than the entire stock of European countries. New York City has the largest depart- ment stores in the world, numbering among the more important may be men- tioned Hearn's, Gimbel's, Altman's, Steam's, Lord & Taylor's, etc. Many of the specialty shops, in quite a number of merchandise lines, have made national reputations for themselves ; while the class stores between 50th and 14th Sts., from Broadway to Madison Ave., are for the most part a credit to the city, though unfortunately, there are some merchants who, like the story of the spider and the fly, lurk behind attractive showcases awaiting a chance unsuspecting victim. It is wise, therefore, for the visitor to "know" where to trade — and in the ab- sence of a more reliable source of infor- mation, to confine himself to stores, res- taurants and hotels wbicb are not afraid of printers' ink— those building a reputa- tion and courageous enough to announce their wares — their service, and their prices through the daily press and other recog- nized mediums of legitimate publicity. It would not be out of place to men- tion a few of Gotham's business activities that cater to visitors. Among the restau- rants may be mentioned: Cavanaugh's, at 258 W. 2.3rd St., near 7th Ave, and the chain opera.ted by the St. Regis Restau- rants, Inc. ; while the Russian Inn, 57 W. 37th St. gives delightful sensations in food, service and customs characteristic of the nation it aims to represent in America. Cadillac Restaurant, at Broadway and 43rd St., is also establishing a reputation for its popular prices; while the Port Arthur, at 7 Mott St., in Chinatown, has a real atmosphere of Far East splendor found nowliere else in New York. Among the specialty shops well patro- nized by visitors may be mentioned Bone Soeurs, at 13 W. 56th St., which is a branch of the famous Parision establish- ment having a reputation and distinction in gowns enviable by many of its near- by competitors. Wm. H. Pries, at 127 W. 40th St.. main- tains show-rooms of metal arts and orna- ments of antique, medieval and modern designs that are becoming recognized as standard by connoiseurs. While among the souvenir stores the Art Shop at 239 Fifth Avenue, and at .50 Broadway, which has an endless assort- ment of special gifts and novelties for the visitor. Cahn's Art Shop at 27th St. and Fifth Ave. is also recognized as a mart for those who wish to purchase postal cards, pictures, frames and souvenirs to send to their friends or to take away with them as mementos of their visit. When you dine at one of our restaurants you receive full value and the best of service for your money. 30 West 34th Street 1460 Broadway at 42nd Street 1491 Broadway at 43rd Street 1587 Broadway at 48th Street 1627 Broadway at 50th Street 4-5 Columbus Circle Restaurants of Unexcelled Cuisine Under Direction of ST.

It makes no effort to extend its field of operation beyond these confines, and uses the American Hotel Supply Directory as its "first aid" in such sources of supplies. Because of the many calls daily upon the publisher for names of prominent manu- facturers, wholesalers and .iobbers in other lines of supplies, the following list is offered of producers and distributors to whom the Sweetsson Service unhesitatingly recommends out-of-town purchasers. There are many directories or buyers' guides published, which list "Tom, Dick and Harry" — without regard to their prominence or business methods. Not so with the following record. An invitation has been extended, we believe, to every worth- while member of these trades in Greater New York to use this medium to invite new accounts from sound commercial activities entitled to reasonable credit accommoda- tions — and the following responded thereto, representing manufacturers, wholesalers and jobbers who extend a welcoming hand to the out-of-town visitors: ACID MACHINERY United Lead Co., Ill Broadway.
