This decrease was more than offset, however by the increase in the num- Der of ordinary passengers, according to statistics just compiled by the Pa cific Steamship Company.
 Officials of the Companys traffic department declare that the number of persons who travelled for purely business reasons had been unprece- dented. This class includes conner cial salesmen and buyers and persons

some reincarnation from tabled tales
OF our forefathers: a. though the bril-

glow OF an old-master canvas. This
quality of other days may be the nat

The remarkable enhancement
of suburban realty values during
the past 20 years has been due
in a greater degree to the per-
lection of transportation facili-
ties than to any other one cause.
Today the suburb located 10
miles from the heart of the city
is, in reality nearer to the bust
ness life of the city than was
the mile-away point of a decade
ago.
In this increase of values no
suburb of the National Capital
has compared with Chevy Chase.
1t is generally admitted that the
service on the Chevy Chase
Branch of the Capital Traction
Company is superior to that
offered on any other suburban
line around Washington. AS a
matter of fact, it is doubtful if
any suburb in the country has
better car service than this.
There can be no doubt that as
the section grows, the car serV-
ice will be augmented to take
care of the increased traffic. The
best guarantee of this is found
in the history of the Capital
Traction Company which, by
students of transportation prob
lens, has always been looked
upon as a model, and which has
always met its problems as they
arose.
