whatever new developments may
come.
Backbone of Industry
The investment field has al
ways been the backbone of the
real estate profession, it is said,
and Arthur C. Houghton, presi-
dent Of the real estate board, is
the first realtor to recognize the
pickup in this important market.
He recently stated:
II am very happy to note
that there are indications of
renewed activity in the sale Of
real estate in the Capital, and
/ am very much gratified that
1t should have started in the
purchase of investment prop
critics.
I'VE have passed through
period of speculation with
rather disastrous results, yet it
is my firm belief that there is
nothing safer than real estate
for capital investment.
To-day, when safety is a
paramount requirement and in
come is essential, Washington,
with its permanent Government
payroll and unaffected as it is
by the rise and fall Of indus
trial activity, offers the most
secure real estate investments"
During the last fortnight, Jack
Weldon, jr., Morton Luchs and
Claude Cryer, of the Clyde Simp'
son Company, have reported the
sale of many investment proper
ties, both large and small, details
of which will be forthcoming later.
Morton Luchs, broadly smiling,
says it has been "the best month
in months for that kind of prop
erty, and the Cafritz outfit has the
sale of an apartment building lin
the bag"
Probably the investor himself
has come to realize that his So
cent dollar will buy just as much
real estate-at the 100-cent dollar
valuation-as it did before, and
his investment has promise OF
more quickly enhancing in value.
A Uniontown (Pa.) realtor IS
in Garfield Hospital and will
appreciate a visit from any of the
local brethren. He is Harry Cooper,
and has been there for some time.
Arthur Buchanan has joined
the business property department
of the Weaver Brothers staff.

secretary of the Indiana polls Real
Estate Board, who has been

ton, arrived in Washington yes

later that every one of his friends who heard Hit

Intertrgo is the scientific term for particularly
irritating condition which between the folds

Sometimes the irritation is due to wearing too

have learned that it is quite satisfactory for the
baby to go about in bathing suit, a sun suit or
just pair of overals. Children not bundled up
they used to be.
Even with very light clothing, however some chill

heat rash is not serious. This may be treated by
washing the skin with mixture of part vinegar
and five parts water The skin then is dried, pow
dered with ordinary clean talcum powder or pow
