KIT ONE" is probably the old
est word known to man.
AA 1t is unquestionably the
most expressive word in
any language. For in its four let
tiers are crystallized all that the
human heart holds dear.
A man can leave his family a
good name, insurance, a savings
bank account - but if he doesn't
leave them home he has cheated
fallen down on his job.
There are thousands of families
right here in Washington who don't
know the joys OF real home,
simply because they do not know
the facts about how easy it is to
own one.

of the Spanish style in its exterior:
The long windows with their arched

Interior Is Portrayed.
The ARRANGEMENT of the interior is
particularly attractive. From the ter

the length of the house, with a coat
closet at one side and the lavatory at
the far end. Arched open doorWayS

the hall open onto balconies. Storage
space is available in the attic. The

modern convenience might be in

 In reply Tunney telegraphed Demp- sey, My reaction is to ignore your open letter completely; cannot resist saying, however, I consider it a cheap appeal for public sympathy. Do you think this is sportsmanlike?
 Reciting the receipt by Dempsey of "a tip" on the evening of the Philadel- phia fight that there twas something phony" about it and that he was told some sort of a deal had been made whereby somebody was going to steal my title,' Dempsey,s open letter asks why Gibson entered into an agreement with Hoff to borrow s20,00O on the understanding this amount would be paid if Tunney lost but if Tunney won Gibson would pay back to Hoff the S2O.OOO as sort of bonus and you (Tunney end) were to give Hoff 20 per cent of all your earnings as champ ion."
