Davies stands out conspicuously. He has designed and superintended the construction of many of our most beautiful homes and substantial business b locks, as we ll as many other bnildings of impora nce throughout the Stat~. As an architect of rare ability, Mr. Davies is most eminent. I le is a b usiness man of sound judgment, possessed of a public spiritedness that makes of him a most desirable citizen for any community. !\Ir. Davies has great faith in Provo·s future, and has recently erected a bca uti f u I Ii tt le modern res idence of seven rooms, nn the bungalow order. An enthusiastic advocate of the city's best interests, he will always be found working faithfully to that end. Of a modest and unassuming nature, his friends arc a legion, and the splendid business that he now enjoys is not due to ability alone, but to the esteem and confidence in which he is held by the community at large.
