Allan E. Walker Company
Reports Sale of
Garden Bldgs.

Allan E. Walker Investment
Company announced this morning
ahe sale of five of the six garden
apartment buildings located on
Webster street, between Rock
Creek Church road and Second
street northwest.
Maynard c. Burreil was the pur.
chaser Of three of the buildings,
the other two being taken by
another local investor.
The garden type apartment was
introduced to Washington about a
year ago by the Allan e. Walker
organizations, and has attracted
very much attention.
The buildings are built in groups
OF two, facing upon wide garden.
They are two stories, substantial
brick construction and modern
throughout. Each of the five con-
tains ten apartments Of four
rooms and bath and two of five
rooms and bath.
In this building operation, the
Allan e. Walker Investment Com
pany is credited with constructing
practically the only moderate
priced rental property that has
been built in the northwest sec
ton since the war.
That such living accommodate tons
are in great demand is evidenced.
by the fact that all of these build
ings were rented months before
completion-several of them being
completely rented at the time
ground was broken for them.
In connection with the sale of
the five properties, the Allan e.
WaIko. Tnveqfroouf Cornnanv an.
nounced its purpose of building a
large number of garden apartments
In other good semi-suburban Sec
tons of the northwest.
The sale was negotiated in con.
nection with J.. A. Boorman, OF
]. ]. hampton & Co., and A. NJ.

Vegetable Blue Is
Preferred for Tints

The first housekeeper who dis
covered that blue tint added to the
water would make her clothes q
clearer white, handed down the
custom; but today we use in addi-
ton the pinks for flesh tones, blue
for white, and grays for gray.
There is a preference for the vege-
table blue, in that 1t does not form
iron rust stains in the presence Of
hard water as the so-called iron
blues sometimes do. All Of the
other color tints are vegetable.
