TINE home as presented above
by Donald s. johnson, arch1-
tect, Is constructed of COM
i bination Of stone and brick
and Is adaptable to either q
corner lot or a wide, shallow lot. Eco
planned, it has many at
tractive features, among which are a
spacious step-down living room with an
fireplace, large open
porch which adds to the spacious ap-
pearance of the house and well pro-
portioned entrance and hall with a
large closet and lavatory.
The second floor has three well
bed rooms and two baths
with the master bed room and bath
forming a private suite containing
closets opening onto an entrance al
cove which may be used as a dress
ing room. The fireplace in the mas
ter bed room Is an especial feature
which Is distinctive and contributes
to coy atmosphere.
The two-car garage, which Is read
ily accessible from the first floor hav-
ing its entrance into the pantry be-
tween the kitchen and dining room,
and the servants room and bath
which is entered from the kitchen
and entirely separate from the Sec
ond floor are particularly desirable
features for the suburban dweller.
The arrangement Of doors, windows
and wall space has been carefully
worked out with a view to the proper
placement of furniture and yet re-
serving an interesting and attractive
exterior elevation.
Ample closet space and provision
for cross-ventilation have been pro-
vided in the designs for all rooms. 1t
should be noted particularly that floor
space has been worked out to maxi
mum utility and the saving of steps
in going about the house. The sepa-
rate stairs from the kitchen to the
landing or the main stairs is desir-
able. The design lends itself well to
either a formal or informal interior
treatment. The house contains ap-
proximately $4,000 cubic feet.

new SUBDIVISION
PLANS ANNOUNCED
Westleigh viii Be Located
in Wesley Heights Spring
Valley Section.

Announcement was made today of
a new subdivision. Westleigh, to be
located in the Wesley Heights-Spring
Valley section, to comprise 100 homes,
by w. c. & A. N. Miller. builders.
The homes, the announcement stated,
will be varied In type to insure perma-
nence of architectural merit, and priced
to suit the popular demand. They are
to be of q smaller type than most of
the houses in the Spring Valley section.
A portion Of its land to the east OF
Fordham road and south of Massachu-
sets avenue has been selected by the
Miller corporation for its subdivision.
Grading Of the streets In this section
has already begun in preparation for
the actual construction OF five houses
to be started next week as the first
step In the Westleigh development.
Forty-ninth street has been graded
from Fordham road to Upton street,
while the latter has been graded from
Fordham road to Massachusetts, ave-
nue.. Van Ness street is now being
rounded into shape. The streets will
be 80 feet in width, with a 30-foot
roadway and the same distance on
either side. Six feet of the side space
will be devoted to trees. a similar dis
tance to sidewalks and the remainder
TO public parking.
Not only will the houses be Of vary
ing designs, ranging from French and
English home architecture through the
simplest form Of colonial, but different
materials will be used. The original
group will have three bedrooms for
each house, two of which will be
master bedrooms. They will be well
insulated and heated with smoke-free
fuel. A concealed built-in garage will
be q part Of each home. Protective
covenants will prevail in Westleigh,
insuring the purchaser of the high type
of personnel of his neighbors.

CODE EFFECT ON LAND
development STUDIED
Former Advisor to N. r. A. Plans
Survey of Influence on Real
Estate Business.

The effect of the N. r. A. codes on
the land development and home build
ing business is an important factor in
the outlook for new home building,
particularly as they may affect en-
ployment and national income and
costs.
Roy Wenzlick. economist for Real
Estate Analysis, Inc, of st. Louis, and
for a considerable period economic ad-
visor to N. r. A, sitting in on dis
customs Of all real estate codes, will
analwe the effect Of codes on home
building and the business Of land de-
velopment before the N. A. r. E. B.
annual convention, to be held in Min
neapolis, June $3.50. Wenzlick will

doubtedly offers a greater and more
certain future in real estate value
than any city Of its size in the United
States.
Now is the time to buy home.
Now is the time to invest for income.
It has been predicted that our city
will some day have population Of
1,00o, 900. It now has SOC, 900, an
increase Of about $4,000 in the last
10 years.
It is gratifying to note the activity
of the investor in the present mar
ket, and it Is also most gratifying to
observe that the public Is still conf
dent in what has been looked upon
as the one sound investment-that Of
real estate.

D. c. REAL ESTATE
PROSPECTS GREAT
Washington Held to Offer
Unusual Certainty in
Future Values.
BY A. C. HOUGHTON,


President Washington Real Estate Board.
A realization of the stupendous
development of the Nations Capital
City. now taking place and which
has been in progress for the last f1ve
years, should awaken the investing
and home buying public to the pres
ent and future possibilities In WASH
ington City real estate.
The entire Government building
program, involving millions, has. been
undertaken and almost completed.
In this program fully 40 city blocks,
all improved and occupied for resi-
Dental and business purposes, have
been destroyed and replaced by mon
umental Office buildings, or will be
in the near future. New neighbor-
hoods have been and will be estab-
lished as a result Of this enormous
undertaking.
Suburbs Developed.
While all this has been going on
in the heart of the city, new streets
and avenues have been opened in
our suburban areas, bringing into
the market choice land suitable for
subdivisions. Old roads have been
widened and are being widened into
beautiful city boulevards, changing
the entire character of the neighbor-
hoods. Parks have been vastly ex-
tended and improved, new schools
built and others enlarged. The popu-
lation has increased until today resi-
Dental units are nearly 100 per cent
rented. The Fall Of 1884 will prob
ably see a scarcity Of housing units.
Over this same period but little
private construction has been under
taken. Prices of construction have
increased both in labor and material,
making it impossible to produce either
the home or the investment prop
erty at prices comparable with to-
days offerings. washington un-

REVENUE ACT REVISED

Provisions in the revenue act Of
1884 that would be detrimental and
even ruinou to real estate corpora
tions and to the business OF real
estate transacted through corporation
holdings, have been eliminated in the
form reported by the Senate Finance
Committee.
Elimination of the provisions was
asked by the National Association Of
Real Estate Boards, which stated its
case In brief prepared by President
Hugh Potter and others and filed by
him on behalf of the association.

of the largest apartment house sales
in Washington. Some OF the larger

BUILDER STATES NEED

The building industry in the opinion
of A. Pearson Hoover, vice president of
G. Richard Davis & Co., New York
City, seriously needs at the present
time some method whereby its general
standard may be enhanced in the
minds of the public, while at the same
time giving to its members profes-
sional consciousness.
There are firms, he says, which pro-
claim that the building industry Is q
profession, requiring high technical
skill, years of experience and q high
sense Of moral responsibility.

to his handsome villa on the
Italian Riviera. Wittach, who
speaks seven languages and is
rated worth a million dollars,
did not like the United States,
because here, he said, we would
not accept clowns as artists, but
rather as hoboes.
Certainly France does not &C.

Albert. Francis and Paul-they
are the most famous of the cir.
Gus clowns, to be compared with
the Marx Brothers of our own
stage. They have been deco
rated by the French Academy.
Who is the worlds greatest
clown? Let us ask Paul F'ratel-
A114AA d11O 44S CSA4O Us.
"There is one man in America
for whom I have the greatest
admiration. He is an artist who
has made the world feel the
tragedy of human comedy.
There is a profound dramatic
sense at the bottom of all his
crazy actions. He is the clown
par excellence, and his name is
Chaplin"
A few years ago, when I was
in Paris, there was a fourth
FrateIlini, a boy of Z, named
Manuel, and the son of Paul.
He was born mimic and, with
the hundreds of others in the
audience, I laughed until cried
as watched him leading a jazz
band which was made up OF
three musicians father and
his two uncleS.
The next night Paul Fratel-
lini gave performance before
900 orphans, children whose
fathers had died for France on
the battlefield. These 900 little
ones had lived in weeks of ex-
cited anticipation, and the Frat
ellinis did not disappoint them.
It was a grand performance.
The show ended. Nine hundred
sleepy heads dreamed happily Of
a night never to be forgotten.
Paul Fratellini went home to
a little flower covered coffin
in which rested a body-that of
his 7-year-old son who had died
that very afternoon.

The most important items
eliminated from the expansion

Efforts to secure up-tO.date

Laboratory equipment for the

Instead of the Grmored cars
the department is purchasing

The desire is to secure cars
that can maintain an equal pace

I often think of a woman I

England environment, she had
become a sort of gray and white

prim, her disposition cool and
controlled, her days lacking in
excitement, her home-though
reStful-entirely colorless.
When I first knew her she
was about q. a pallid, mousy
woman who already seemed 40.
She dressed, habitually, in soft
browns, grays and black, made
with extreme simplicity by a
rather old l. fashioned pattern.
Everything she did or had was
good, but monotonously practi-
cal and plain.
Sometimes I suspected that
her thoughts did not entirely
conform with her outer life
that she knew hungerS and re.
bellions which were far from
mousy. But, if so, she did not
discuss them.

model which the traveller had
bought for herself but, having
grown stouter, was unable to
wear. A gorgeous thing, but
entirely unsuitable, we thought,
for my friend.
For one thing, it was an eve
ming dress, and she never went
out in the evenings. Besides,
the material and cut were fan
tastic-a magnificent velvet,
heavy and glowing as molten
metal, a rich wine color. It was
made in a strange, gypsy fash
ion-the skirt flowing in great
folds from the tight bodice,
which was encrusted in dull
gold.
My friend stared aghast as
We opened the box and the glor'
ious garment spilled across the
table, Haunting it's exotic Splen-
dor in a quiet, ShadoWed room.
Did you ever see anything so
ridiculous?" she cried. Imagine
me wearing thing like that"
Still smiling, she slipped it on
and we both stood breathless.
She was transfigured! Against
that rich beauty her mousy
hair was pale gilt, her skin the
creamy texture of magnolia,
her eyes dark, brooding pools.
The change was incredible! An.
other self had emerged-a self
neither of US had seen before!
There is not space to tell all
that dress did to my friends
life, but the record runs like a
fairy tale. From that day, both
her appearance and program
changed. Gradually, even her
house was transformed.
That one adventure into
beauty released whole new per-
sonality-a vivid, passionate
personality, hungry for color and
music-reaching eagerly toward
all the lovely abundance of life.
Yet she was not really a new
person. That other self had been
locked within her all those years.
There is just such another
self locked in each one of us.
Adventuring Selves-romantic
selves-braver, lovelier, lvelier.
selves than the world has ever
seen. Each human being is a
treasure chest Of undeveloped
selves.
Why do we go on, year after
year, wearing drab personalities
when we might swagger through
life like jeweled kings and
queens?
