As to the Outlook.
In speaking of the outlook Mr.. Fairfax
said: THE demand for houses both for
rent and sale has been very satisfactory
this fall and although the national election
| is near at hand it is no disturbing factor IN
continuance of activity and believe the
next few years will witness the best real
estate business that has ever occurred in
this District.
