become q highly specialized branch
of the real estate lprofsssion. :. In
discussing this subject recently be-
fors the real estate class At the

valuable information may be de-

more especially to the care and
maintenance of apartment houses.
A complets statistical record OF all

produced very satisfactory results.

which are now kept in many modern

In. analyzing the functions Of a
rent department Bowie impressed
upon the class the vital Importance
OF having competent men in charge
of this work. The position Of rental
agent frequently is one that offers
dificult situations, as the agent
necessarily acts as the go-b.tween
in matters of. disputes between ten
ants and landlords. Tact, patience
and experisnce are necessary An or

CHANGERS OPPOSE INCREASED
ASSESSMENT

At largely attended meeting of
Pomona Grange, the parent body of
all the subordinate oranges of the
county, held in the basement of the
Reformed church, at Mt Pleasant,
Saturday, a resolution was adopted
protesting against raising the taxable
basis of real estate under the present
reassessment. 1t was pointed out
that during war time conditions real
estate values had been inflated and
that farms sold during that period
brought much higher prices than could
now be obtained. In view of this, it
was felt that it would be unfair to
assess real estate upon these values
and that everything considered, the
present assessment is high enough.
Taxation has become a serious prob
lem for farmers under present condi-
tions, and it was felt that farmers
would be put to great disadvantage
in the event of their property assess
ment being increased. The resolu-
ton was debated with a feeling of in
terest and unanimously adopted.

A PRETTY CHASE

Raymond Eicholtz of the State Road
Police force was here also. About 9
o'clock little Ford roadster was seen
beating its way west on Main street
at lively rate and glancing in the
other direction came the motorcycle
cop. The Ford made dash in the
alley at the Reformed Church and into
the church yard. So did the police
man, but when the later got there he
found only the Ford, the driver having
made a hasty getaway in the dark.
The Ford was running without a tail
light. The officer took the number of
the lisence tag, put the customary lit
tie tag on the steering wheel and de-
parted. We havn't heard what the
Judge said the fine should be.
