HAY FEVER GETS
EARLY START HERE
Woman's Welfare Associa-
ton Clinic Cooperating for
War Against Ravages.

''The hay fever season has already
opened for a few victims of the early
or spring type of the disease" is
the cheerful announcement of the
Woman's Welfare Association. Cheer
full? Certainly, because the associa-
tion conducts on Tuesdays two i'm
portant clinics, one of them for hay
lever patients. 1t is prepared to find
out just what early pollinating plants
and trees cause the trouble, and
along the line of preventive medicine,
give an inoculative treatment lasting
for six or eight weeks, which, in
a majority of cases, eliminates the
malady.
The other Tuesday clinic, held at
pm, is held for cancer control.
The association thereby is co-operat-
ing with the District of Columbia
committee of the American Society
for the Control of Cancer in it's forth
coming campaign of education for
the eradication of cancer Facilities
are available for the careful exami-
ration of women whose suspicious
have been aroused by signs of
symptoms to the possibility Of tumor
growth. After the examination, the
patient is directed toward safe and
sane treatment in competent hands
The cancer control clinic does not
administer any treatment, but acts
as a clearing house for those who
may need treatment, surgical or
otherwise.
Third Year of Clinic.
The clinic for the prevention of hay
fever and asthma, which is held at
CLOCK, is now entering upon its
third year of activity. Preventive

Building Activities in District ]
Indicate General Up,vdrd Trend
Record of First Six Months of 1924 Con-
siderabIy Under 1923, But Inspector
Declares A6erage Sho,os Gro,Uth.

While building in value and size or
operations for the first six months of
this year is considerably lower than
the corresponding period OF 1928,
there is an upward trend shown in
the operations of June and May OF
this year.
June is considerably in advance OF
the same month of last year and
| ranks second in building construc-
tion during the first six months or
| 1924, with May easily outstripping
| last year and considerably IN the
| lead for this year.
The Office of the building inspector
points out that while for the first six
months this year building construc-
| tion is valued at about $19.74S 1926,
| compared with $30,195,546 sfor the
| corresponding period of 1928, consid-
Grafton must be given to the fact
| that almost $6,000,000 was credited
to April of last year by reason OF
one undertaking, the Walker Hotel
Comparison With 1923.
June construction amounted to
| $4,077,8S0 this year. Last year 1T
totaled $3,954.670. May of 1928
showed construction amounted to
more than three millions while this
May II Is over HFe IHllliOHS.
Home owners and home seekers are
particularly interested in just how
| the housing situation stands. In May
| it was in the lead as compared with
! last May. Two hundred and ninety
dwellings. at value Of s1.7S2,315,
| were built in May, 1924. and in the
| same month in 1923 only 125 houses,
| at a value of s1,O94,055. were con-
| structed. In June, 1928, 81 brick
| houses and 70 frame houses, a total of
RI
| were erected, and in this June, while
| more houses were built, their value
| was less. Last months construction
| in dwellings was 131 brick, tile and
| SO frame, a total of 1876 residences,
valued at 81, 1,523.742. Business con-
| struction in May and June of this
| year, however. is in advance of bust
| ness construction of the correspond
| ing months of last year, according to
| deductions from the figures at the
| Office of the building inspector.

Of new construction for these months
in the two years. This is not unusual
as survey of conditions in 1923 by
the Department of Commerce shows
that of the entire construction

RACES constituted 40 per cent of the

There is prospect OF a continued and
gradual upward trend in building ac-
