 Service Grocery Company system, no rents to pay, no managers or extra clerk hire. All of this saving will go to the customers. They plan to self
 groceries at a great reduction in price, due 10 the cut of these expenses. Then, too, there is no waste such as haVinS groceries spoil on their hands. The
 trucks carry only small amount of
 each article. and when they sell out
 of/anv one thing, allsthey have to do
 is phone the warehouse and have q
 service ear replenish their need. The
 warehouse is also equipped with the
 highest type of refrigerating facilities
 and storage space. It is the one store,
 or rent problem that concerns the company. It is sort of whoNsa le
 place where they store groceries until
 they sell them. and the rest of their
 plan is direct from the warehouse to
 the customer.

 up to the curbng near your house, and not having to dress all up togo out to see what you want? And thlS store
 Is a most complete one, everything that you can find in the biggest gro cery store will be carried. in small rum bers, but there are always plenty more where that came from, and 1T you buy out the lot the chauffeur clerk can readily phone and have his stock all filled again and ready for the next i customer.

REALTY MARKET
 IS STILL ACTIVE
Demand for Homes Con- tinues Heavy and Many
 Leased Closed
Bv CLARK BOOTH

The demand for houses has been the main thing that has occupied the at- tention of the real estate men of Bir- mingham during the past week and has been a proposition with which they have had to contend for some months
 It has become increasingly evident m the past few days. and the various realty dealers are unab ble to cope with the situation.
 The tendency. as it has been for some time leans toward Bungalows, and according to the realty dealers, Il ds the young married couples who have despaired of renting a home that are seeking to buy small residences.
 Real estate in general is not what might be called on a boom. but is un- usually good, the sales in larger homes and business sites reaching large vol irne. The increased activity which started about December l, has been Keeping up the pace. and the end ot each week finds little better business than the week before
 The renting of business sites is being done far in advance and a number of leases. although not given out yet ow- drg to the contracts not being com goleted. are being made to become ef- fective next October. II. L, Farley of iYancey Real Estate and Insurance Company stated yesterday that his firm was negotiating several large leases for terms of three and four years in she vicinity of First avenue and Nine Heenth, and on South Twentieth street.
 John Leedy of W. B. Leedy also re- Aported several large leases in the pro- cess of being closed.
 The automobile district on the other side of the railroad tracks and extend- 4ng even to Magnolia avenue is the scene of steady activity, several leases being reported in that district, while one firm has a contract to build two garages which location will carry leases of from five to ten years.
 Owing to the unusual activity in all branches of real estate, several of the companies are adding extra salesmen to their staff. The most recent addi- tions were announced from Messer- .Johpson Realty Company, and include Henry Holcombe Smith, James H. Les 1ie. Paul [. Snyder and W. T. Mathis. { As ]. D. Haggard of Haggard Realty sComp2ny says, 'Business was never better and John Bethea, of Beathea Real Estate and Insurance Company twho conservatively says; Real estate sales are steadily increasing" and the sn1any other realty dealers in Birming- fhame who speak enthusiastically over mhe trend of business, it can be seen that this city is experiencing one of it's Ibosf seasons in the real estate field.

Dinlomatic Appropriation Measure Meets With Delay
By Associated Press

Washington. February, 14.-Delay in
 sending the diplomatic appropriation
 bill to conference was encountered to- day in the House by objection of mem
 bers who inquired about the Senate
 increasing passports fees.
 Representative Randall, Prohibition ist, California, objected to a provision which he said would exempt some Chicago and New York sports going to Cuba" from paying the $10 fee. Repre- sentative Garner, democrat. Texas, said the increased fee might stop inter- course" between Americans and Can- adians and Mexicans.
 Chairman Porter of the foreign af- fairs committee explained exemption 1 into the increased fee would safeguard against interference with relations be- l tween citizens of this and neighboring countries
