 "I have in mind" said MT. Wolfe. "a recent sale of a large group of property here. The result was a sue cess. Efforts had been made by Bridgeport folks to secure that prop erty at what they thought was a req sonable figure. MT. Day told us we were a bunch of pikers and that he would prove it. He took the prop crty and not only proved his conten- ton but exceeded his own appraisal of the property in the sale.
 That shows what we want to hap pen can happen if we go about it in country ana say fhHsesre is no money available for housing. It's like the farmer, who said: Is it ever going to stop raining?' and got the reply Tt always has
 Money is generally forthcoming if we go about getting it in the right way. Not a single bank was asked to help finance those houses nor were the purchases financed by real estate houses. That money came from over turned mattresses and emptied stock ings. I know that, because I know that very few checks were used for the 1 per cent deposit, but the cash itself was piled on MT. Days table. There is money somewhere if we lnow how to get it, and in that is the solution of the housing problem"
 In opening the 9;3o session of the conference, Sumner Simpson of the Connecticut National Bank. said:
 "The first speaker is MT. E. A. AIacDougall, president of the corpor- ntion which has produced a large number of apartment houses in the Borough of Queens and is operating them on a cooperative basis. Those Of us who come from outside New York will be very much interested in what he has to say. We have heard both good and i'll of the cooperative housing plans in New York and oth- CT cities. We would like to hear from one who can give first-hand in formation.

we are looking TOT good Christ mas trade. In fact, We are having it already and it is not on necessities alone. People are buying things to ornament their homes; things for comfort. such as rockers and s1nok- ing stands and such things as big standard lamps. These are really luxuries and if the times were as hard as some try to make out they would not be buying these things. Of course we are not doing the business that we were when everyone Was buying reckIessly, paying without question sa-InI1au Ilitson prices, and ap- parent1y having no thought that the high wave would eveT end, but it is a much more healthy condition ROW.

Loss Of Appetite

As general rule there is nothing
serious about loss of appetite, and
if you skip meal on eat only two
meals u day for few days you will
soon have n relish for your meals
when meal time comes. Bear in mind
that at least five hours should always
clapse between meals so as TO give the
food ample time to digest and the
stomach period of rest before tho
second meal is taken. Then If you eat
more than you crave and take Il rea-
sOnable amount of outdoor exercise
every day you will not need to wor-
ry about your appetite. When the loss
Of appetite is caused bv constipation,
as often is the case, that should be
corrected at once. A dose of Cham
berlain's Tablets will do it. July

TOM MIX MAX ES BIG HIT
PRESENTING "r1IE TERROE

One of the most pleasing features,
outside of Tom Mix's great stunts of
daring, in "rhe. Terror" which Will

House tonight, is the beautiful scenic
effect achieved by the director.
''The Terror" reveals nix at hi,

cninterruptedly by his remarkable

deviltiy. The story is rich in romance
and in that kind of adventure which,

Levant House Will
 Be Meeting Place
 For Orient Trade

American Chamber of Commerce for the Levant has undertaken to organ ize a Levant House in New York City for the mutual benefit of business men and others, either here or in America, who are interested in the Near East. The suggestion originated with G. H. Ravndal, American Commissioner and Consul General here, and honorary president of the local chamber or csiu- merce.
 It is proposed to establish the Le- want House along the lines of the In- dia House, one of the historic clubs of New York, but with the modern equip ment of other wellknown business, en- gineering, or foreign trade organiza- tions already centered in New York One of its purposes would be to record and commemorate Americas contribu' tion to the advancement of civilization among Egyptians, Arabs, Armenians, Turks, Greeks and Bulgarians. Liter ary research and lectures upon this topic would be actively encouraged.
 The American chamber of commerce for the Levant has named, partly among its officers and directors at large, group of active business men in the United States to whom 1t has entrusted the work of carrying the Le- want House scheme into execution. These are: c. R. Lydecker, Ralph Milton Odell, Edward Neville vose, Lu- cien Irving Thomas, Edward Ewing Pratt, B. c. Porter, H. M. Hitchcock, H. NJ. Day and Harold Hoskins of New York City, Herbert Adams Gibbons of Princeton, w. T. Ellis of Philadel- phia and Luther Fowle of Boston.
 It is believed that the movement will be furthered also by men like Cleveland H. Dodge, James A. Farrell,
