Ten years ago Miss Nell Hiatt
started work as a file clerk in a real
estate office at Lebanon, Ind.
Now Miss Hiatt owns the business
and employees several men on her
sales force.
Ask Miss Hiatt how she accounts
for unusual progress and she'll tell
you that it is because She selected
a business for which woman is nat
urally adapted.
Women do more living in the
houses than men. They have a nat
ural house love which men do not

Miss Hiatt.
II consider his family, its type. I

what kind of a house she would

trying to sell her husband something
