SAYS WAR WON'T
AFFECT REALTY
Il. F. Stephenson Asserts Trad
ing In Detroit Property
Goes On Unahated

War conditions seem 20 have little
OF no effect upon the real estate sit
uation in Michigan according 10
statements made by 3. r. Stephen
son. Detroit real estate dealer.
1T IL very interesting 10 note, I"
says Mr.. Stevenson that while
many other business are affected
in various ways. still the selling and
buying OF meritorious property
seems to go right along without any
fear In Detroit. This. | attribute 10
the fact that nothing can stop nor
even mar Detroit's growth because
we are going so fast and making
such progress that nothing short Of
complete devastation could dampen
our aggressiveness.
Detroit property has been what
we consider completely sold. Thare
Is little chance left for the small
investor But there still remain
many wonderful opportunities Just
outside OF the city for the ones who
will put their thinking cap on and
study situations"

GIVES TALK
ON REALTY
TRANSFERS
j. L. Millers Tells "Y"
Class How to Make
Deeds
WORDING CAUSES
MUCH TROUBLE
Improper Phraseology
Often Results In
Litigation

''Carelesgness and Ignorance OF
The proper phraseology and manner
OF execution OF iegal instruments by
means OF which real property ls
transferred in whole or in part. per
manently or temporarily. absolutely
or condItionally, from one person TO
another. are by far the most com
mon cause OF litigation in the Aeld
Of conveyancing."
This was the opening remark OF
j. Thompson Miller, Detroit real es-
tate operator, in an address to mem
bers OF tho Y. M. c. A. class In real
estate Friday night. Some excerpts
from Mr.. MilleTs talk follows:
The deed probably Ia the most
common and important OF all real
estate Instruments n is a written
agreement signed, sealed and deliv-
cred. by which one person conveys
land 10 another. The first recital
in the deed IL that OF the actual date
Of the execution OF the instrument.
The true and actual date OF signing
should always be used.
Next comes a description Of the
parties. The grantor Is always the
party OF the first part He should
be described by his full name: and
n he is n married man, HIS wife
must join with him. and be named
as one OF the parties OF the frst part
80 that her dover interest may 10
Invested. II tho grantor Is a mar
ried woman her husband need not

when the land to be conveyed lies
IN this state
Some states give a husband a
dover interest or an estate by cour-
tesy' An his wife's lands. but Michi-
gan abolisbed that rule long ago II
the grantor is an unmarried man or
widower the wordk. unmarried or
'widower' should be inserted In the
deed Immediately after his name.
The grantee Is always described as
the party Of the second part In
order to clearly establish the iden-
THY Of the parties, II IL always well
to designate their place OF resi-
dence right after their names"

For several months Detroit has

mite and comprehensive campaign
hRh been mapped out. A fixed OBJ
jective in the form OF inadequate
housing facilities exists. The can.

weather conditions. On March 81
the spring season was officially
ushered In and now the greatest
house building movement ever. In
aagurated in Detroit is under way
Builders have been waiting for
spring 20 take the frost ont OF the
ground so that a great number OF

their indoor occupations and 10 take
up their building trades In the con

Many great building companies
