M. Helke, building inspector of the department of building commissioner, presided over by William Edwards, with J. A. Williams as deputy. The total valuation of building per- mits issued for the first half of the present year was $1,143,010, far in excess of the total for a corresponding period of any of the three previous years, and a lead which Mr. Helke conservatively estimates will enable the village to make a showing for the year of at least $2,000,000, a record by long odds over that of any year in the history of the village. Comparative Figures Compared with former years, the following statistics are interesting: 1924--January to June, $ 706,607 1925--January to June 589,360 1926--January to June 661,859 1927--January to June 1,143,010 The total for the year 1924 was $1,254,678; for 1925, $1,447,448; for 1926, $1,459,721 and with the splendid showing made in the first six months of the present year, together with what it is known is already contem- plated for the second six months' period of the year, should break all previous annual totals by going to the two million dollar mark.
