secondhand and a first-class dealer will
only sell it as such. A Washington firm
holds annual auction sales which are at
tended by dealers from nearby towns and
furniture which has been slightly used
in apartments Is sold at great reduc-
ton. They sell it as new furniture to
their customers and realize big profit.
One of the newest features of the in
creasing demand for secondhand furni-
ture is the revival of interest In walnut.
A few years ago walnut bureau could
be purchased at a secondhand shop for
s. or g. Now the same article
will bring at least five times as much.
The revival of the taste for the old
fashioned black walnut furniture of
single generation ago. will soon rival
that for mahogany in the opinion of
dealer of established judgment.
The modern secondhand store is not
an unattractive place. The used furni-
ture Is cleaned up and presents a pleas
ing appearance. The facilities for fumi-
eating and disinfecting and the stringent
rules made by the board of health re-
garding contagion have reduced to
minimum the dangers of contagious
diseases from secondhand furnitures.

who would have scorned to use second

visit all the second hand shops before
going to the stores where new goods are
sold when an additional piece is needed
in the home.
One reason for this is the Increased
price for new furniture. This amounts to

gagged as he is in settling up the terri
tory which his road traverses and in
assisting in the location of industries
and the peopling of its farms. he also
finds time in which to aid in the civic.
social and recreational development of
the South. Four years ago Mr.. La
Baume realizing that hundreds of
young men and women employed in the
offices, stores and shops of the towns
and cities were unable to avail them
selves of any real summer recreation
or enjoyment on account of the uni
versally high rates charged by almost
all summer resorts, arranged with a
few friends to acquire one of the most
charming camp sites in the country,
nestled at the foot of Mount Grotoes
with the beautiful Shenandoah River
encircling the outer edge of the
grounds. Here he erected dining and
entertainment pavilions, put in fine.
large family compartment tents with
all necessary equipment, laid of tennis
courts and ball ground. and with the
Installation of boats. canoes and bath
ing facilities on the river he has sue
ceeded in providing summer camp
Several hundred young people, families
and older folks were entertained here last
year. and this year Mr.. La Baum has de-
termined to open the resort to a larger
clientele. 1t is possible for guests to Sc
cure complete accommodations in large
tents equipped with double-deck cots.
camp chairs. rugs, washstands. etc. for
as little as s1.50 per week per person II
the campers desire to prepare their own
meals q complete sheet-iron camp stove
with oven is also included with the equip
ment and no charge made for same.
Complete entertainment. including tent
lodging and good, wholesome meals at the
dining pavilion are provided for the nomi-
purchase tickets here in Washington, in

ton, 6 weeks entertainment at Camp
and entrance to the famous
Grottoes Cavern at a total cost of SIS,
which includes everything.
