PLAYS IMPORTANT PART
Realty Operator Deals With Com
mercial and Home Life. Maga-
zine Asserts.

The real estate operator occupies a
tremendously important position in both
the commercial and home life of the city,
declares the National Real Estate Jour
nal
The man or woman who desires TO buy
a piece of real estate as a rule seeks the
advice and counsel of a man who makes
special study of the real estate mar
ket
This thought embraces both the aues-
tions of the ability of the operator to ad-
wise properly and accurately and the
purpose to which the prospective buyer
intends putting the property.
In the first place, the prospective
buyer needs but seek out dealer who is
a member of the local real estate boar
and he can feel assured that SO far as re-
liability is concerned he is properly safe
guarded
An organization s principal purpose is
TO see that every buyer and seller of real
estate is honestly, fairly treated. There
are provisions in the constitution and by
laws of the average real estate board
that impose severe penalties on any mem
Der who should even moInentarily depart
from the strict rules of professional con-
duct that the organization imposes.
AS to seeking out the man who is the
best posted on the general market and is
therefore in position to give the soundes'
and most accurate advice. the prospec-
tive buyer must use his or her Own inI-
,iative or seek the counsel of some one
in whom they have, personally, implicit
confidence.
The second thought-that relative to The
| purposes to which the buyer intends tc
| put the property-is a vastly more i'm
| Iortant one, because on that advice
| hinges the success or failure OF the in
yestment
| If it is home that the buyer wishes Il
| purchase. the advice must necessarily bt
| specifically along the line of the desra
! bility of the property for home purposes
! its future prospects and such surround
| ings as might have an influence on th'
general home life of the community
/ If the purchaser desires to invest none!
! in a direction that will produce revenue
4 or will enhance in value SO that it car
| eventually be sold at substantial profit
! the information and advice must take
/ distinctly different trend.
Real estate is a desirable form of in
vestment, because real estate is the basi.
\ OF all wealth and always will be.
! This reason ought to satisfy the pros
pective investor that far as the de
| STABILITY Of the investment is concerned
/ there is room for neither doubt nor argu
| ment. Ii is merely left for him to de
| eide just what he wants to purchase, and
| of course. on the location and nature O
| the property hinges the possible return OF
| the Investment.

they conceived the plan of building q

The proposition was placed il the hands
of a Montreal architect. The floors uf

construction. are TO be eight feet above

walks, but will have walk in the center.
, a'so eight feet above ground level and
connected with the doors OF the houses
by little bridges.
When the architect was first asked TO
design this village he thought il was a
joke. but considering the matter further
and studying the plans. he realized il
was good notion. He took ideas from
prehistoric lake dwellings In Switzerland
and the streets of imperial Rome. The
result is a village Of great engineering
interest.
