HOME REALTY CO.
CAN'T REALIZE
ON ITS REALTY

A meeting OF creditors OF the Home
Realty company has been called by
Edwin G. Pierce, its attorney, at the
Office. on the sixth floor of the In
dustrial Trust company building, at
noon tomorrow.
The company was incorporated about
five years ago, with capital of $780,
600. The embarrassment Of the COM
pany Is due to inability to dispose of
large holdings of real estate; and to
the great increase in cost OF building
operations. This concern not only
made a business of building houses to
sell. but under contract erected homes
for private individuals.
The property owned by the Home
Realty company includes three large
tracts of land in the town of War
wick, known as Jefferson Park, Lin
coin Park and Oakhurst; also large
tract known as the Home Crest prop
erty. formerly the Admiral Dewey plat
in the rear OF the Brown e. Sharpe
Manufacturing company's plant.
Mr.. Pierce says that the book as
sets of the company show large ex-
cess over the liabilities even should
those assets be reduced by so per cent
During the last two years. for the
reason that wages in connection with
the building trades have increased
greatly and building materials have
also been largely enhanced In value,
the construction operations OF the COM
pany have not been conducted proht-
ably.
In addition TO these forms OF en-
barrassment the company, IL is said
had not received payments as promptly
and in as large sums as had been ex-
pected from some for whom they had
erected homes.
All building operations, because OF
the advice given by Mr.. Pierce. have
been suspended and the men who were
at work upon the unfinished houses
have been called in.
The three plats. located In Warwick
embrace in the aggregate more than
1000 house lots, all OF small size
Mr.. Pierce says that a statement of
the liabilities and assets is now in
process of preparation. and that IL
will he ready for submission at the
meeting of the creditors at IL o'clock
tomorrow
The officers OF the Home Realty
company are: President, Albert f.

Love can include the whole body

In his chosen Helen the entire sex. \
Marriage can now be ideal. In
fallible and impeccable. without re-
curing any platonic supervision OF
elders Each sex is conscious OF its
own good points. but still more so of
those OF the other. Life which has
heretofore been partial, provisional and
preparatory now becomes complete In
mutual. spiritual appropriation and
mastery.
without children love is incomplete.
II woman Is not satisfied and grows

fuences of nature makes II generic
