The movement in question is that of providing houses to rent or sell to Incoming settlers and workmen in the city. There is no city in the west at the present time that is not suffer- ing from.a want of houses to shelter the constantly increasing population. Medicine Hat up to date has been par- ticularly fortunate, as. the building which has b en going on rapidly has beon-inkeeping with the. increasing population. However, this summer and right at the present time the aet- tlers are coming in faster than the there fs no real shortage of houses at the present time there is every pos- sibility that there will be one in the near future and it Is this that the business men wish to avoid. At a recent meeting of the execu- tive of the board of trade this mat- ter was brought up apd. discussed thoroughly by the members and the result may be that in the near future The Medicine Hat Loan and Building Sovlety will be started. The idea of the society is to erect the houses and to rent or sell them at the lowest pos- alble cost to the settler. The idea Is not to make money but to encourage houses are being built, and though . orm Building and Loan Soc- ere Will Consider Erect- other settlers to come here and to keep: them here when they do come and not have them turned away hs other cities are experiencing because. Of the fact that they cannot get a home for their family. It is likely that the matter will be discussed at future meetings and def- inite action taken, , Another idea which.Is being discus- sed is th shortage of business houses in the clty, or rather stores for pos- sible storekeepers. At the present tlie there are several prospective Storekeepers who would ilke to open here but they. wish to rent, not hay- ing the money to launch out and erect a building of their own, At the pres- ent time there is a severe shortage of stores-her and the bullding society when they get going will likely look into the matter, with the possible idea of erecting a couple of business blocks, * Another idea which is being fol- lowed up in this city and which may be carried out in a short time s the erection of a couple of large: apart- ment houses in the city. It is known that already a couple of business men have. the matter under consideration and in the Hear future residents may see,a couple of five or six storey apartment houses, Similar to. those seen In other. Canadian and American cities, erected. Alberta Gazette Contains Announcement of Two New Hat Companies.
