ADDITIONS TO HOMES
OF THE LARGER TYPE
Building on 23d Street Facing
Wyoming Avenue Advances
Farther West.

During the building season. which is
now nearing it's close. additions have been
made TO the number of homes of the
larger type. which are of an interesting
character In the case of the homes
erected on the west side of sd street
facing Wyoming avenue they represent
a further advance to the west in that To-
calty than has ever been made. The
course of building is now quite up to
SD street, which is one block and one of
unusual length, west of Connecticut ave
nue. but il has only been within a COM
paratively recent date that this has been
done and the space between the houses
on the eastern section of the block and
2Sd street has been improved
In addition 10 representing an advance
of improvements the two houses are in
teresting as types of homes and illustrate
what can be done in the way of distinc
tive home building. 1t is quite evident
from even a slight observation of the
domestic architecture of this city that
house builders are not bound to any one
type. but that their" choice has wide
range. II is the varied style in house de-
signing that impresses a good many visit
ors to the capital as something that be-
longs 10 the city as n distinct quality.

Fewer New Houses on Market.
Fewer new houses have come on the
market during the past year than was
the case the previous twelve months,
and there has not been as much ac-
tivity in the sales, but still a long
current Of business has been main
tanned and is still in evidence.
The advantage of buying the house
where one makes his home appears to
be as readily appreciated by newcomers
to the city as by those who have been
here for some time. and are supposed to
be more familiar with conditions, and
that is one reason why home buying
has become a distinctive feature OF
the real estate market. Even people
who come here planning to stay at the
utmost only a few years find 1t to their
advantage to buy instead of renting,
and as such an estimate of the sub
stantial character of realty holdings Is
based upon confidence in the future OF
the city 1t may be concluded that 1t
is not likely to undergo a change.

From the point of view of length OF
the rent list at the close Of the first
month of the fall season some of the
real estate brokers are not altogether
satisfied with the market for rented
houses and apartments On the other
hand, judging from the demand that has
already been supplied, it is admitted that
thus far a good business has been done.
AS compared with last year ii is
thought by some of the brokers that
there has not been as much done in the
way of disposing of property for rent.
but that conclusion Is as rule reached
by comparing the size of the rent list at
this time with that Of last year.
Still. the renting season is by no means
over, and by the time it is 1t is PROBABLE
the situation will change. The long SEES
sion OF Congress no doubt has something
to do with the delay In completing the
plans for the winter. both with those
who are more or less directly connected
with that body and the. growing class OF
people who make this city their winter
home.
Lessening of Activity.
1t is also thought by some observers OF
the market that the present condition
may be only another symptom that the
city has perhaps passed somewhat the
limits Of the needs for new houses and
apartments For more than year past,
in accordance with the conservatism
that has always marked the real estate
market in this city, there has been a
gradual lessenins in building activity, SO
that there has been a chance for the de-
mand to come up to the supply. On &C
count of what was practically an antici-
patton Of future conditions building has
been checked. In this respect the con-
ditions here are looked upon as favor
able for an early resumption of the nor
NAL current Of building operations There
is not the wide separation of supply and
demand that would have been if the cur
taiIment had not been going on for some
time.
In the interval since the checking OF
general building, the growth OF the
population has gone on, so that there
has been a natural increase in the de-
mand This is shown from current con-
ditions In passing from the rental
market to that of the sales it is also
noted by those familiar with conditions
that the home buying movement has
continued, not with the same volume

GIVES REAL ESTATE MEN
/. TWO NEW SETS OF RULES
National Association of Ex-
changes Presents Report
at Annual Convention.

Two sets of rules for real estate men
were presented in report of a committee
of the National Association Of Real Els
tate Exchanges at the recent annual con-
vention.
1.-The first concerns the duty of real
estate men toward their clients the re-
port declares
The real estate agent should be 2hso-
lutely honest, truthful. faithful and cfii-
Gent. He should ever bear in mind that
ne is An emp,ove-that his client is his
EMPLOYER, and is entitled to the best serv-
ice the real estate man can give-his IN
formation, talent, time. service ,oSaitv'
confidence and fidelity
a real estate agent should be conserVa-
tive in giving advice, and where lie IS no.
reasonably well posted should refrain
from giving his opinion of values.
"A real estate agent should inspect his
clients property, if possible. before offer
ing it for SALE and he should always in
form the buyer if he has not done so.
IAN agent should not depreciate the
price of the property unless the price Is
too high; he should ask that the price be
reasonable. and tell the owner that 1t
must be so If ne expects his agept TO
make an attempt to sell IT.
Agency in Writing.
IAN agent should have the sole agency
in writing. If it is property he is willing
to make a special effort to sell
AN agent should advocate either the
real consideration to be shown in deed
to property or 81 and other valuable con-
siderations.'
An agent should not give special IN
formation to inquirers over the telephone
or otherwise. unless they are willing TO
give their names and addresses Let them
understand he deals in the open, and ex-
poets them to do likewise.
AN agent should not ask for net
price on property. unless he intends to
buy 1t himself. and SO notifies his client.
An agent should not request MS chem
not to discuss price with the prospective
| buyer. but persuade his client to refer
the matter TO the agent. thus strengthen
ling the agents position with the buyer,
