Solution to Previous
Contract Problem

The first important factor in
contract bridge is to know how
to bid your hand correctly. Even
though you are good player, If
you do not arrive at the proper
contract, your good play avails you
nothing.
/ want to advise my readers to
pay more attention to defensive
play. Just because your oppo
nents arrive at a game contract
is no reason why you should give
up. Always be on the alera to
execute some play that may de-
feat the contract.
This is what was done by s.
Carton Churchill of Brooklyn, N.
r., in the first round of the re-
cent national contract team-of-
four championship at Cincinnati.
He and his teammates won 20
out of 20 matches in this session.
They were the defending cham
pions. and defense is their strong
est point. l

The Christian movement in

a multitude of faults. Freakish-
ness of design will place good house
at a disadvantage. The heat
ing plant must be rated both as to
comfort and economy of operation.
Although it is usually possible
to cure a wet basement, evidence of
its existence is one of the worst things
to be encountered. in the mind of the
prospective buyer. Land prices
are in part fixed by the social char
acter of the residents of the neigh
borhood People like to live where
they feel that their neighbors are on
social plane which they themselves
seek to attain. A house facing
dirt or cinder-surfaced street and
the direction of prevailing winds suf-
fers peculiar disadvantage. A
community separated from downtown
by a grade is never so popular
as it would be were the hazard not
present. = Deferred paving assess
ments, especially in the case of low
priced residence properties are some
thing which mortgage-loaning agen-
cies are now giving closer attention
to. In the lower price range,
the level lot has the advantage, but
hills and dales offer the greatest at
traction for the well-to-do."

ARTICLES EXPLAIN
REALTY APPRAISAL
Human Values Important in
Deciding on Figures
for Residences.

How the real estate appraiser goes
about the business of residential ap-
praisal, which now Is occupying his
attention more than ever before, is
set forth in two articles in the Jour-
nal of the American Institute Of Real
Estate Appraisers, now going to press.
The articles are contributed by
Charles B. Shattuck, Los Angeles, and
Fred E. Smith, Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio.
They show how the appraiser gives
dollars and cents value to the intangi-
bles of human values which make up
home as we'll as such hard and cold
matters as reproduction cost.
General Observations.
Some new general observations as
to value ratios advanced by Mr..
| Shattuck are:
l. In any residential neighborhood
there will usually be found very
definite ratio between the rental
, which the homes command and the
| prices at which such homes may be
actually sold. In most cities this ratio
will probably be: Sales price approxi-
mately a hundred times the monthly
rental, provided a normal situation
exists as regards the supply of homes
and the demand for them. ct Is
rental rate offered rather than rates
in force for houses rented, which is
the determining factor.)
2. There Is a fairly well defined
ratio which exists between the repro
duction cost, new. of a home suited
to its district and the value which
may be assigned to the home site.
The ratio often varies between differ
ent grades of residential districts and
communities, but once established in
any particular neighborhood it will
be found to be almost constant.
Values Linked to Income.
3. The reasonable value Of a resi-
dental site will be found, in general,
not to exceed the annual income or
family earning capacity OF the av-
erage typical family of the neighbor-
hood. Thus If the earning capicity
OF the typical family in given neigh
borhood is 50 400 per annum, lots in
| the neighborhood will have a reason
able value not in excess of $2,500.
More often it will be less.
4. 1t is a fairly safe rule to say
that single family residence which
is an over-improvement for its neigh
borhood will be deprecated in its
economic value to that point where
its value will not exceed the repro
duction cost new of the typical i'm
provemenr suited to the district.
Mr.. Shattuck cites matters that
should be reviewed to give a mental
picture of the homes relation to its
neighborhood; factors which must be
analyzed to give the general social
environment of the home; matters
which the appraiser should check
from the public records as affecting
the value of q residence; factors az
fecting the value of the land itself,
and items to be checked in examining
the structure itself.
Some of Observations.
Some of Mr.. Smiths observations
are:
Good sound construction will cover

then discharges its debt over period
Of 9 to Is years, making monthly pay
ments just like rent. The advantage,
however, which is distinctly charac-
teristic of the present. Il that while
the rent has every indication of con-
tinuing to rise, the payments con-
tracted for with the building and loan
association, based on the bargain price
at which the house was bought in
the first place, continue just the same.

own more than $1,000 equity in the
home in that length Of time.
Studies Of the rent question bring
to light the fact that rents were fall
ing practically all the time from 1924
down to 10 months ago. The rise Of
the popularity Of the rented apart
ment also falls within the period from
1924 on. Undoubtedly the falling
rents had much to do with the ten
dency OF the family to rent rather
than to buy at time when the price
Of property was high.
I'VE can expect to see . reversal of
the tendency now, with rents definitely
rising for the first time in 10 years

Proper Size for Toy Blocks.

Four inches long by two inches
square is a good size for children's
building blocks, according to educa-
tional experts. These can be made at
home by cutting them from 2 by 2
planed joist, sandpapering the edges
and corners to a slight roundness, and
painting them ir. bright colors. Old,
worn blocks can be given new lease
on life by enameling them in gay hues.
