Schlbley, recently returned from Florida, reports having completed the organisation of Colonial Apartments company of Orlando, Florida. Tha Incorporator are Judge John If. Cheney, one of Orlando'a foremost clt- iiens, Mra. Herbert Wichendahl, experienced and capable manager of Jef- feraln Court Apartments, the largest apartmenu building In Orlando, and W. H. .Schlbley. Orlando la the county seat of Orange county, located In tho north central part of tha state, on the direct route from Jacksonville to the weat coaat. People who have spent their winters there have named it tho "City Beautiful " The reasona for such a name are many, chief xmong which are tbe .riant (water oaks which line her avenues. These trees afford protection from the sun in summer and shelter for many fine song birds the year round Touristi' find It a big surprise to be awakened In the winter ir >rn- Ings by the songs of the nightlrega'c* and cardinal. There are seventeen beautiful spring water lakea within the Incorporated limits of Orlando, and some of the most attractive homes In the south are located on the ahores of these lakes. Brick paved streets radiate In all directions, connecting the city with other parts of the state and affording tho motorist every opportunity for enjoyment. Orlando represents a community ot high Ideals. Her schools and churches are well organised and on a high plane of efficiency. Her people are progressive and pull together for all civic, educational and religious uplift. In other words, she la one of the beat governed cltlea In the state and la growing rapidly. In 1900 her population equalled that of Amherat; now It la over 9,000. Orlando la patronised by tourists who come to spend tho winter and are willing to pay for what they get. Tho housing faculties of the city fall tar short of the requirements and many tourists have been turned away. It is this condition that convinced Mr. Schlbley, after three winters spent there, that a high class apartment, auch as the Colonial would be, would bs a very fine Investment. The Incorporators are convinced that the summer and tall will be the boat time to build, because labor is plentiful and materials' are cheaper than for some time. All furnishings will be purchased at wholesale, and the stock will ho sold without one penny expense, every dollar going into the building. Mra. Wlchtendahl, who becomes the ownsr of stock and manager of the apartments, Is recognised as one ot the moat capable business women in the state. Judge Cheney will take care ot all logal matters, and Mr. Schlbley will look after the financing. With auoh an organisation, tho most conservative business men are confident that succeass is assured. Ths following is a clipping from the Tampa, Fla., Tribune ot June 12: , Orlando, Juno 11.—Before the full approach of the 1921-22 tourist season Orlando will have finished and opened tho doors ot a $250,00 three-story, fireproof brick, tile and concrete apartment house for Its winter visitors, according to well developed plans which were made known to The Tribune cor- respondent today by W. H. Schlbley, of Amherst, Ohio, who Is heading the project, and who stated that it was the further plana of himself and associates to break ground within thirty days and to have the building ready for tenancy by December 1 next. Mr. Schlbley spent last winter here quietly Investigating locations for this venture. He finally decided on a throe-acre tract owned by Judge John M. Cheney, of this city, which was situated on the south side ot Lake Concord, one of the moat picturesque lakes within the corporate limits, and resting In ths rising northwest section of Orlando. After purchasing the k!t Mr. Schibley was successful in interesting Judge Cheney in the project, as well as Mrs. Herbert Wlchtendahl. both of this city. The structure, by far, wlU be the largest and moat modern of Its kind tn central Florida, and Ita surroundings from a point of landscape view would he hard to surpass, by reason of the natural growth ot tall pine and oak trees skirting Lakt. Concord on Its southern shore, and but a stone's throw from Colonial Drive, whsre tho building Is to ba located. Aocordlnc to plans, which wars shown to The Tribune correspondent by Architect F. H. Trimble, of this city, who has been awarded the contract In that connection, there will bo thirty-eight Individual apartments. Bight of these will consist of four rooms and bath; twenty will bs mads up of three rooms and bath, while six will bs only two rooms and bath. Nor will the lonely bachelor be forgotten by the architect's force, for four bachelor apartments, containing, however, but a single room and bath, have been provided also. The building will be three stories at the front approach, and four on ths lake side. This was made possible and very desirable on account of ths Striking Incline from the driveway to the lake's edge. Mr. Schlbley. who was in Architect Trimble's office, going over tho plans, together with Mrs. Wlchtendahl, stated that aside from sufficient garage accommodations on the premises, there would be a special laundry operated in connection with the hotel, snd an electric elevator also would be a feature of the service offered guests. The apartments will be furnished, and the house kept open the year round While it could not be learned definitely whether the contract for the election of the building had been awarded to anyone as yet, it was understood on good authority that a Jacksonville engineer was preparing estimates for the purpose ot bldc'.lng. Mr. Schibley, however, Intimated that ao contract had been signed and that 't was probably not too late for other engineers to present bids on the work. When the reporter questioned the ability of the associates to erect the building in the time they had allowed for the work, Mr. Schlbley said that he had considered his statements as being conservative enough, and that, in fact, he hoped to break ground in considerably less time than thirty days and to have the house completed and furnished for occupancy by guests some time in November. Judge John M. Vheney, who Is asso- ciated in the enterprise, needs no Introduction here, If It were done to acquaint Orlando or South Florida of his career, for the great development that has followed his labors since ths pioneer daya of Orlando speak eloquently of Judge Cheney. And Mrs. Wlchtendahl, owing to her Very efficient management of the Jefferson Court apartments here since that house was first opened, also has a broad and favorable acquaintance. The building will be erected and operated by a stock company, but the apartment has not been named as yet, and it may not be until prises are offered for the most appropriate ons. It la understood that the financing of the project has been successfully negotiated, and that there seems to be no physical reason which might account for failure of the foregoing program. ltllV.'".".""i"'rsli South Amherst Oeorge Oorr, Correspondent ENTERTAINS SOCIETY The Ladles' Dime society of the Congregational church was entertained by Mrs. John Dressier at her home this afternoon.

It la over 9,000.
Orlando la patronised by tourists
who come to spend tho winter and are
willing to pay for what they get. Tho
housing faculties of the city fall tar
short of the requirements and many
tourists have been turned away. It is
this condition that convinced Mr.
Schlbley, after three winters spent
there, that a high class apartment,
auch as the Colonial would be, would
bs a very fine Investment.
The Incorporators are convinced that
the summer and tall will be the boat
time to build, because labor is plentiful and materials' are cheaper than
for some time. All furnishings will be
purchased at wholesale, and the stock
will ho sold without one penny expense, every dollar going into the
building.
Mra. Wlchtendahl, who becomes the
ownsr of stock and manager of the
apartments, Is recognised as one ot the
moat capable business women in the
state. Judge Cheney will take care
ot all logal matters, and Mr. Schlbley
will look after the financing.
With auoh an organisation, tho most
conservative business men are confident that succeass is assured.
Ths following is a clipping from the
Tampa, Fla., Tribune ot June 12: ,
Orlando, Juno 11.—Before the full
approach of the 1921-22 tourist season
Orlando will have finished and opened
tho doors ot a $250,00 three-story, fireproof brick, tile and concrete apartment house for Its winter visitors, according to well developed plans which
were made known to The Tribune cor-
respondent today by W. H. Schlbley,
of Amherst, Ohio, who Is heading the
project, and who stated that it was
the further plana of himself and associates to break ground within thirty
days and to have the building ready
for tenancy by December 1 next.
Mr. Schlbley spent last winter here
quietly Investigating locations for this
venture. He finally decided on a
throe-acre tract owned by Judge John
M. Cheney, of this city, which was
situated on the south side ot Lake
Concord, one of the moat picturesque
lakes within the corporate limits, and
resting In ths rising northwest section of Orlando. After purchasing the
k!t Mr. Schibley was successful in interesting Judge Cheney in the project,
as well as Mrs. Herbert Wlchtendahl.
both of this city.
The structure, by far, wlU be the
largest and moat modern of Its kind
tn central Florida, and Ita surroundings from a point of landscape view
would he hard to surpass, by reason
of the natural growth ot tall pine
and oak trees skirting Lakt. Concord
on Its southern shore, and but a
stone's throw from Colonial Drive,
whsre tho building Is to ba located.
Aocordlnc to plans, which wars
shown to The Tribune correspondent
by Architect F. H. Trimble, of this
city, who has been awarded the contract In that connection, there will bo
thirty-eight Individual apartments.
Bight of these will consist of four
rooms and bath; twenty will bs mads
up of three rooms and bath, while six
will bs only two rooms and bath. Nor
will the lonely bachelor be forgotten
by the architect's force, for four bachelor apartments, containing, however,
but a single room and bath, have been
provided also.
The building will be three stories at
the front approach, and four on ths
lake side. This was made possible
and very desirable on account of ths
Striking Incline from the driveway to
the lake's edge.
Mr. Schlbley. who was in Architect
Trimble's office, going over tho plans,
together with Mrs. Wlchtendahl, stated that aside from sufficient garage
accommodations on the premises,
there would be a special laundry operated in connection with the hotel,
snd an electric elevator also would
be a feature of the service offered
guests.
The apartments will be furnished,
and the house kept open the year
round
While it could not be learned definitely whether the contract for the
election of the building had been
awarded to anyone as yet, it was
understood on good authority that a
Jacksonville engineer was preparing
estimates for the purpose ot bldc'.lng.
Mr. Schibley, however, Intimated that
ao contract had been signed and that
't was probably not too late for other
engineers to present bids on the work.
When the reporter questioned the
ability of the associates to erect the
building in the time they had allowed
for the work, Mr. Schlbley said that
he had considered his statements as
being conservative enough, and that,
in fact, he hoped to break ground in
considerably less time than thirty
days and to have the house completed
and furnished for occupancy by guests
some time in November.
Judge John M. Vheney, who Is asso-
ciated in the enterprise, needs no Introduction here, If It were done to acquaint Orlando or South Florida of
his career, for the great development
that has followed his labors since ths
pioneer daya of Orlando speak eloquently of Judge Cheney. And Mrs.
Wlchtendahl, owing to her Very efficient management of the Jefferson
Court apartments here since that
house was first opened, also has a
broad and favorable acquaintance.
The building will be erected and operated by a stock company, but the
apartment has not been named as yet,
and it may not be until prises are offered for the most appropriate ons.
It la understood that the financing
of the project has been successfully
negotiated, and that there seems to
be no physical reason which might
account for failure of the foregoing
program.
