ImpreSsing
En- At Seattle
Attention of Realtors Drawn
To Atlantic City By
Girls
HAD PARTICIPATED
IN PAGEANT HERE

The manner in which the adj
vantages of holding the annual
meeting of the National Associa-
ton of Real Estate Boards in
Atlantic City in 1928 was impressed
upon the delegates at the recent
Seattle convention is explained by
Charles E. Fell. Mr. Fell was the
Atlantic City delegate. He was
accompanied by Mr.. Skean, director
of the Atlantic City Publicity
Bureau.
They secured the services of
several charming young ladies who
had participated in the Atlantic
City Pageant program, stationing
them at the various meeting points
of the convention and there hand
ed out salt water .affy and Allan
tic City buttons. A large banner
inviting the delegates to come to
Atlantic City was hung across the
entrance to the theatre, where the
principal meetings were held
When the invitation was formally
presented from the convention
floor it was enthusiastically re-
ceived.
The decision relative to the meet
ing place of the National associa-
ton however, is made at meet
ing of the board of directors in
Chicago next October at which time
the Atlantic City board will have
representatives present to argue
Atlantic City's convention merits
Both the Tulsa and the Seattle
meeting should indicate to them
Mr.. Fell feels, that holding the
1928 convention in the east would
be advisable if better attendance
is desired

POPULARITY OF
BUILT IN FURNITURE
Allows More Space and
Reduces Furnishing
Cost

The popularity of built-in fea-
lures is explained by the fact their
compactness allows more space for
the center of the room and in this
way saves the house from being
crowded with an abundance of
furniture. Moreover, large per-
centage of built-in features in ones
home materially reduces its fur
nishing cost. This detail works to
advantage in two marked ways.
The occupant of the house may
use the money thus saved for
other purposes or he can divert it
towards the purchase of more ex-
pensive furniture, which otherwise
would have been beyond his buy
ing power.
The advantage of using a wood
like yellow pine for built-in fea-
lures is obvious. The variety of
finishes which can be applied is
one of its highly desirable qualities.
The home owner is not limited to
!he use of varnishes and stains,
such as mahogany, oak and walnut,
but also may have the pieces fin
ished in ivory or in the unlimited
range of colors obtainables in
enamels and lacquers. Briefly. the
built-in feature may be made to
either harmonic or contrast with
hitting the house owner to express
his individuality and personality
in way that would have been
difficult with stock furniture.

Charles declared.
Cooperation with taxicab

conveying passengers into the city.
This would enable airplane pas

at least twenty-five minutes before
the arrival of train which would
leave the Camden terminal at the

zone of the stiffest forms of
competition that airplanes have to
contend with is the train service

Charles pointed out.
"The trip must also be econom-
ical to compete with the train
service. This could be worked out
easily" he said.
Companies operating from
Chicago and other aid-Westen
cities have found that they could
carry passengers at a rate of ten
cents per mile. This would mean
that charge of approximately six
dollars would be made for the trip
to Atlantic City. with cheaper
rate for a return trip ticket

Insulating lumber has in itself

ing, as it is called in some local
tiles. On the inside it is used in
place of lath and plaster is applied
directly to it. When used in this
manner it forms as great barrier
to the passage of heat and cold as
wood, eight times its thickness of
plaster or plaster board, twelve
times that of brick and twenty
five times that of solid concrete.
Special studies in insulation and
heating efficiency are carried on
by Benjamin R. Fox, in West
Atlantic City.
The cost of applying insulation
material as sheathing, from
figures gathered in all parts of the
country, runs just about parallel
with the cost of applying wood
sheathing. AS base on which to
apply plaster the cost runs about
10 per cent over the cost of wood
lath and 10 per cent under the
cost of metal lath. In extremely
warm climates therefore. where
heating is no consideration, the
cost of an insulated house is ap-
proXimately the same as an I'M
insulated house. But in cold eli
mate where every house must have
substantial heating plant, an
other economy may be effected
which does not apply in the warmer
parts of the country
The presence of insulation makes
heating easier, makes it possible
to heat house with less radiation
and a smaller plant than would be
necessary to heat the same house
uninsulated. 1t is, therefore, pos
sible to reduce radiation and plant
as much as 25 per cent, with a cor
responding reduction in its cost.
From the above develops the
startling fact that the comfort for
which the wealthy are willing to
pay substantial extra price is
now available here at less cost
than ordinary old-fashioned con-
struction.
So much for the initial cost of
construction. 1t has been previous
ly stated that with proper insul-
alton saving of as much as one
third can be effected in the cost
of each winters fuel supply,
whether it be coal, oil or gas. This
Is a continuing economy and pays
a dividend year after year not
upon an extra investment in orig
nal construction, but on an actual
saving, a profit acquired on no in
vestment at all. To the house
builder it is like legacy of
sound interest-bearing bond which
never fails to earn its interest.

People Take Great Interest in
Fish That Come in From
The Deep
WONDERFUL NEW
PIER AT CHELSEA
Harry r. Young Declares
That a Net Haul Conveys
a Thrill and Points Out Con-
crete Examples

The great interest. people take
in the fish that are in the sea will
be capitalized when the new ocean
pier is built at Chelsea avenue and
the Boardwalk in the rapidly grow
ing Albany Avenue Boulevard sec
ton of the Worlds Playground.
Harry r. Young, well known
real estate broker and long time
friend Of Benjamin r. Fox. who
has been closely associated with
deals involving millions of dollars
in the Albany boulevard section
adjoining the Boardwalk, is keenly
interested in the plans now being
completed for the new pier which
will be the greatest Atlantic City
has seen.
The new pier is $5,000,000 pro-
ject under the care of a syndicate
headed by Charles Myers. After
discussing the great width and
depth of the pier provided for in
the plans, Mr. Young says the
great feature will be four net hauls.
"Just why four net hauls, ?" Mr..
Young was asked
1--WE have. the authority of Capt
Young, of Million Dollar Pier
fame" replied Mr.. Young, that
net haul draws bigger than brass
band. That there are just as good
fish in the sea as have ever been
caught is an axiom which holds
good today as it did when father
was a boy.
Some people may apply the
axiom to the matrimonial sea, but
if you will stop and consider that
hundreds of men and women stop
on the Boardwalk in front of the
Million Dollar Pier to look at the
strange fish which come from the
net hauls ON that pier you will
begin to understand something of
the interest taken in strange fish
from the ocean, even by people
who never went fishing and never
expect to and who would be ex-
pected ordinarily to take more
interest in window shopping than
they do in these inhabitants of the
deep.
