Slidell did nobly for the fund.
The people gave $500 and the

such a good one that all are

The Bali Rent law is the great

other time In our history has there
ever been so strikingly portrayed

Full sympathy with the Ball Rent
act and urgent recommendation for
Its further continuance for another
period OF two or three years war
advocated. As proof that there Is
nothing in the usual argument that
the Ball law retards building of
homes. II has only been since the
Ball law was declared constitutions
by the supreme court OF the United
States that IL has been possible for
this company TO complete plans for

building up their 400 homes on the

regard this law as a broad salutary

LYON PARK GROWS
FROM FIELD INTO
BEAUTIFUL SUBURB
Development of Virginia
Tract Of Land Due to
Work of Owner.

An interesting example of rapid
suburban growth Is found in Lyon
PARK. Va, comparatively new
suburb 20 minutes from the center
Of washington on the Falls Church
branch of the Virginia
Railway. Two years ago there was
nothing but woods and thick Under
brush, today there is a modern
suburban development with good
homes. concrete sidewalks, streets,
gas, electricity and sewers.
Crops were harvested last fall
from one large tract through which
streets now are being laid. Houses
are going up on last years farmland.
Earth Is being turned again this
spring, but this time for sewers and
gas mains.
Developed By Lawyer.
A busy lawyer with a hobby is
responsible for Lyon Park and Its
growth. Frank Lyon, 30 years a
resident of Arlington county, is a
lawyer with a practice chiefly be-
fore the interstate commerce COM
mission. His hobby happens to be

probably taking active part in the

One of Mr.. Lyons convictions of
long standing has been that If city

otherwise would have to buy higher

Added City Convenienees.
He selected for the site of his new
est development a tract lying about
midway between Clarendon and
Hatfield and along both sides OF the
Observation-Disclosures Railway. He
put in sewers himself; brought in
gas and electricity; built streets and
sidewalks, and put up homes. He
dedicated a park for the use of the
people on his property. and the lit
tie trolley stop which had been
known for years as Ninson station
became Lyon Park. a new suburb
of Washington.
