October 6, 1917 RECORD AND GUIDE 439 RECENT LEASES. Civic Club Leases. Horace S. Ely & Company rented 14 West 12th street, a four-story building occupied for many years by the Salma¬ gundi Club, to the Civic Club of New York. The Salmagundi Club, which has occupied the building for a quarter ot a century, will soon move to its new home at 47 Fifth avenue, a five-story dwelling, 39.3x125 feet, which the club recently purchased from the WiUiam G. Park estate. The Civic Club was organ¬ ized in 1916, and differs from similar or¬ ganizations in that men and women con¬ stitute its membership. The club has been located in the Hotel Le Marquis, 12 East 31st street, since organization. Miss Mabel A. Wiley represented the club in negotiating the lease. TheVermin Problem No. 22 Rising costs have compelled own¬ ers generally to increase rents. The increase will be more gra¬ ciously accepted by tenants if the owner can point to some addi¬ tional benefit, however slight, ministering to tenants' comfort. Nothing will create a better feel¬ ing among tenants than extermi¬ nator service for the entire build¬ ing, assuring them of freedom from vermin pests—yet the cost is so slight that no owner need hesitate about providing his buildings with such a service. Many of the leading real estate firms engage the Bliss Extermina¬ tor Company for this work be¬ cause "Bliss Service Satisfies." Free Demonstration to owners and agents.
