LIFE INSURANCE FIRMS
INCREASE ADVERTISING
Spent Two-Thirds More in 1888
Than in 1929, and Plan Further
Expansion.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, January o.-Nelson A.
White. president of the Life Advertisers
Association, stated yesterday that life
insurance companies spent two-thirds
more for advertising in 1888 than was
spent in 1929. and for the current year
appropriations already made should
further accelerate the upward trend"
He said insurance companies had de-
veloped a type of advertising which
stressed the institutional nature and
cooperative spirit rather than "the
competitive note" because, he said, "the
splendid record of life insurance dur
ing these stormy days has been one
of the most outstanding phenomena
of the economic picture"
Life insurance national advertisers
increased by five during 1898, Mr.. White
said, adding that he had heard reports
indicating that lone or two other COM
panes are considering extensive cam
paigns during the coming year."

BRIGHTWOOD:
An apartment architecturally
designed and built on the Eng
lish plan Of grouping a number
of homes around a centrally
Handicapped court is the unique
idea offered in the plan Of the
apartment building in the 5400
block of Eighth street. The unit
I inspected consists of two
rooms, kitchen and bath. The
kitchen was unusually large and
well appointed. Close to Paul
Junior High School and just
around the corner from the
Truesdale School this is a very
nice apartment at $4,000.
1900 BLOCK OF QUE ST.:
In my tour of the city in
search of apartments I discov-
cred an ideal one. This apart
ment consisted Of five rooms,
kitchen and two baths and is
equal in size to a house. On en-
tering into the foyer which di-
vides the living room and dining
room you realize, at at a glance,
the possibilities of this apart
ment. walls tinted in a cool
shade Of blue-green and paneled,
low windows, high ceilings and
spacious rooms where your large
pieces of furniture could be used
to a great advantage. Two baths,
three bedrooms, buffers pantry
and large kitchen completely
appointed, this is indeed a real
home. Phone me for further in
formation.
100 BLOCK OF N STREET
This really beautiful home I
visited which has fireplaces in
every room, lofty ceilings and
spacious rooms offers a very at
tractive home to the seekers of
the unusual. The present owner,
a very gracious lady, showed me
through the house even to the
large kitchen and laundry room,
the latter being especially for
the guests of the house. The re-
ception foyer was paneled in oak
and had an arrangement of
storm windows which help to ac-
centuate the real beauty of the
imposing entrance. Available
now are several vacancies Of
handsomely furnished rooms
which are offered at a most
modest rental. For those inter-
ested in making their home in
such lovely surroundings, I sub
NIT this house for your inspec-
tion.

18TH AND RHODE
ISLAND AVENUE:
What more could you wish
than what I discovered in this
small apartment this afternoon.
A one-room suite with sun par
lor, kitchenette and bath with
every convenience and a large
medicine closet. Now here is
an innovation-in a cabinet
that is built in the wall is a COM
plete dinette set consisting of a
table and benches that could
easily seat six. All one has to
do is to open the glass doors
and pull the table down. 1t is
really wonderfully clever. Also
each apartment is equipped with
a radio. all you have to do is
turn it on. Parquet floors, cross
ventilation and the fact that it
is downtown makes this apart
ment doubly desirable. It has
electric refrigeration on the
house current, as is also the
radio and believe you would be
very happy in this most modern
apartment.

Another one of these delight
full homes where you can rent a
lovely airy room and have the
advantages of the entire house.
These rooms are furnished to
suit the taste of a man and the
gracious owner told me there
was plenty of hot water at all
times. Located right off the
Mt. Pleasant street car line and
near enough to the Park to get
the benefit of the cooling
hreezes, am sure you would
like this home. For further in
