PLACING OF RADIATORS.
Heaters Are Set Near Windows to
Warm Incoming Air.

For the benefit of those who have
expressed curiosity concerning the Gus
tomary placement Of radiators, beneath
windows, the following explanation is
made By Arthur Bates Lincoln. consult
ing architect for Home Owners Insti-
tute:
Radiators are placed under window
Ells primarily because the greatest
amount Of cold air enters a building
through and around the window. The
heat arising from the radiators heats
this air TO comfortable temperature.
Prom the viewpoint of room fur
nishing the space under a low window
sill is the place least likely to accom-
nodate furniture The broad wall sur

PROGRESS IS NOTED.

nv. C. Miller Says Convention
Showed Development Dur
ing Last Decade.

The convention of the National AS
Sociation of Real Estate Boards held
last week in Louisville, according to
w. c. Miller, president of the Wash
angton Real Estate Board, strikingly
Illustrated the progress made by or
ganized real estate men in the past
decade. With over $4,000 individual
broker memberships this national or
ganization represents one of the larg-
est groups of business men IN the
country.
During the sessions of the conven-
ton attended by several thousand
realtors stated realty problems were dis
cuSSed and analysed by leaders from all
sections of the country. Divided into
a number of groups simultaneous meet
tngs were held and the various phases
OF real estate practice were given spe-
cial thought and attention,
It was pointed out by Mr.. Miller that
brokers. mortgage loan organizations,
appraisal experts, home builders and
subdividerS, property managers as well
rs tax specialists and those interested
in developing real estate education, all
met ard concentrated their efforts IN
furthering the activities of the national
association. Each group had a definite
program to work out and the results
obtained will be published in book form
real estate practice.
An unusually interesting exhibit of
the national association. according to
Mr.. Miller. was fostered by the edu-
cational committee which showed IN
chart form the growth and develop
Tnent Of real estate education. Com
plete outlines of educational courses
ranging from the elementary lecture
courses given by local real estate boards
and Y NJ c. A institutions to the
major curriculum of universities were
displayed. A real estate library consist
ing Of upward of so volueS covering
every phrase of real estate practice in
Guiding law, ethics, coming. taxation
studies, etc, was set up. This library
very definitely indicated the accom-
plishmasTts in real estate educational
work, for it was recalled by Mr. Miller
that barely 10 years ago there was no
real estate literature available except
purely legal and economic texts.
In general way, Mr.. Miller said the
activities of the national association
have tended toward Standardization of
practice, set I'D ethical obligations and
requirements. developed education as an
essential element of qualification and
fostered uniform license laws to regu-
late practice. AS result there has
been a noticeable increase in efficiency
among real estate men. The field is
attracting higher grade men, and the

but something mars the interior and
completely spoils the picture.
In a case like this look to the walls
and ceilings. Probably you will find
the difficulty in one of these spots.
Perhaps the walls are lifeless or marred
by a bad crack near the chimney, where
all eyes focus. Perhaps the ceiling is
covered with lath streaks or discolored.
Or perhaps the plaster is about to fall
in one corner of the room. An ex-
perience such as this proves this one
important point. Plaster and the eff
fects which 60 with it, can make or
