CHASE IDEAL
RESIDENCE SECTION

Just at this time. when the cry is
for homes for newcomers to Wash
lngton, especial attention is diverted
to Chevy Chase as an ideal residence
section.
The necessity for quick financial re-
turns, the ever-present bugaboo OF
most development enterprises. has not
left its inevitable mark on this sub
urb or its environs. 1t is a section
which has been carefully developed
with the sole idea of furnishing pleas
ant surroundings for those who would
be OF, IL not in, the city.
The business men who first under
took the development OF Chevy Chase
acquired 1000 acres of rolling land.
They spent thousands Of dollars in
improvements. From the sales lists
of Thomas ]. Fisher & Co. II readily
can be shown that home-buyers OF
the better class have been as active
in Chevy Chase as in, any part Of
Washington this season.
The best clubs of the city at once
saw the possibilities in Chevy Chase,
at the time 1t was opened as a divis-
ion, and located handsome buildings
there. Many smart homes are avail
able for people who desire refined
environs. And no section of Wash
ington is more beautiful or more &C.
cessible from central points in the
city. It is one Of Washington's ideal
developments.

Mr.. Real Estate Man:

The basis of operation of this Real Estate
Bureau is similar to that of our Used Car
Bureau, through which we are daily instru-
mental in the making of sales by means of
leading the buyer to the agent. That is what
we are doing with the Real Estate Bureau
every day. But the Real Estate Bureau aver
ages more replies daily than does the Used
Car Bureau! This is natural because there
are more people on the market for houses
than for automobiles. The number of people
we are handling every day has increased so
that we are unable to supply the demand.
When you list your homes with us, all of the
details which are given us are strictly con-
fdential, nobody save the bureau operator
having access to the files.
We want you to list your homes with us
and establish in Washington real Real Estate
