WISE SAYINGS

To behold Is not necessarily to ob- serve. and the power of comparing and combining Is only to be obtained by education.
 Confidence always pleases those who receive 1t. It is tribute we pay to their merit. | depOsit We commit to their trust.
 Conscience makes the bitter mem- ory of what was. what is. what must be worse-if worse deeds, worse sui fering must ensuA.
 When anger rushes unrestrained to action like . hot stssd. 1t stumbles in its way. The man of thought strikes deepest and strikes safest.
 Though reading and conversation may furnish us with many ideas of men and things. yet 1t ls our own meditation must form our judgment
 The reputation of c man is like his shadow. It sometimes follows and sometimes precedes him; 1t is some times longer and sometimes shortsr than his natural size.

BUILDING SHOWS TREND

Surrey From Leading Cities Sho,cs Cain
of 3 Per Cent Ouer Year Ago and
Per Gent Ouer Preceding Month.

Building permit reports from $50
cities and towns for August indicated
that the trend toward stabilization,
which has been evident in the con-
struction industry for several months,
continued to be the dominant feature,
a survey by S. w. Strauss & Co.
shows The total for the $50 cities
and towns was s277,45S,s47, as against
$269,373,23O last August and s264,-
376,450 in July this year. a gain of
per cent over a year ago and a gain
Of about per cent over the previous
month.
THE month of August" the report
states with few exceptions during
the past decade, has shown a decrease
in building permits from July. The
increase of about per cent this
year would. therefore. seem to point
to healthy condition in the building
industry at large.
at will be noted that, taking the
country by regions, every region
showed some increase over July and
only one, the Pacific West, failed to
show an increase over August, 1928.
South Keeps Active.
"The South continued to show un-
usual activity in the planning of new
construction, with a gain of 46 per
cent over last August and Is per cent
over this July. The East gained 3
per cent over August and 2 per cent
over July, 1924. The Pacific West had
a gain of IA per cent over July.
I'm the 25 leading cities (selected
on a basis of volume of permits) the
increase over last August was in
keeping with the general stabilizing
trend, the total being s173.2GAG14
against S173, 1855 The increase in
these same cities this August was
about 16 per cent over August, 1922
There was also an increase in these
cities over July this year.

to require all applicants for license to

Carrying the requirement a step further
in the coming year in the case of new
applicants has been suggested by the
California real estate commissioner
Further administrative advance is asked
by the State association in the protec-
tion Of the name realtor and in the
creation by the real estate commission
of field deputies to give force and eff
f1ciency to the license act
Legislative enactments further pro-
posed in the associations tentative pro-

lumber prices. While July witnessed
definite check to the down-trend of
lumber, August brought a definite re-
versal, upward changes amounting
to 10 per cent in many instances
steel showed further weakness
both in Chicago and Pittsburgh,
though warehouse prices in all CEN

In New York common brick was off
about SO a thousand, while crushed
stone was also somewhat lower in

thirteenth place in the list of prin-
cipal cities. This is somewhat be-

large French doors at the back of the
hall is to be had as soon as one
enters the street door, At the right
of the entrance is the living room,
well lighted from groups of windows
at two ends of the room. A large
fireplace with seats on either side
gives a detail of interest to another
wall.
The dining room is at the left of
the hall. An unusual detail of this
room is the fernery, which is planned
to occupy almost the entire garden
end of the room. This is literally a
bay window in which is pool made
of cement, raised a foot above the
floor and lined with blue tile. Ferns
could be planted all about this pool
and potted plants arranged around
them. Thus the whole window would
be an inside the house" garden
This could be omitted If desired and
the alcove retained as a window seat
corner; or, by a Slight alteration of
the roof, the wall brought back flush
with the other wall along that side of
the house on the other side Of the
porch.
French doors lead out to the porch.
Between the kitchen and dining room
is large pantry. "A doorway has
been left in the pantry SO that the
f1dlu can answer Ine door DELL QUICK
ly and easily. There is a small sink
in the pantry and another in the
kitchen, both beneath the windows.
so that the worker can have plenty
of light. A nook in the kitchen pro-
vides space for the ice box as well as
a pleasant dining place for the maid.
Upstairs there are four bedrooms
and two baths. The bath for the
maids room is reached through the
rear hall. A stairway leads up from
the kitchen to the maids room, so
that she would not have to pass
through the body of the house to
reach her own apartments. From the
back hallway is a narrow stairway
leading to the attic.
This house should face the north,
giving the garden side the full glow
of the southern sun.
Since the prices of material and
labor vary so materially in different
localities, we do not attempt to give
an estimate as to the cost, but sug-
gest that you consult a local builder,
who can give you detailed informa-
ton as to the costs of your exact
needs to be installed in this design.

BALTIMORE, September 2O.-It is
estimated that not more than 1900

and raise chickens
The increasing rate of taxation and
water rents in Baltimore is the rea-
son that many give for moving away
from this city. In some instances
where householders paid sS and $40
in 1928 for water, the charge this
year is S12 to SIS
Many apartments in Baltimore
have been idle this year. more so. ac-
cording to a prominent real estate
