NEAR CAPITAL,
ADVANTAGES
NUMEROUS

Deale Beach, new waterfront
subdivision on Chesapeake Bay
being developed by the Holloway
Company of Baltimore, gives every
indication of becoming an ideal
spot for Washingtonians during
the summer months.
Only 80 miles from the Capital,
and readily accessible over inl-
proved highways, it has many adj
vsntages as site for summer
retreat. Fishing, grabbing, boat
ing and swimming are said to be
excellent. The land is we'll drained
and we'll wooded in sections. The
style of dwelling erected on the
property is optional with the pur-
chaser. In addition, those not for.
tunate enough to be able to pur.
chase waterfront lots are entitled
TO beach privileges.
Building Rapidly
Naturally, Deale Beach, being
only two weeks old, is still in a
formative stage, but the lots are
selling rapidly and it is expected
that within a short time the de.
velopment will become one of the
most popular of Washington's
summer resort communities.
Speaking of the advantages OF
Deale Beach, a representative of
the Holloway Company said:
"This is the time of the year
when people want to get away
from the hot city. They want
to get on the water, to get a
chance to cool off and relax.
"The trouble Is that Washing
tOnianS who want to own a cot
tage on the waterfront have to
go so far away or else pay such
a high price. We think we have
solved both these problems in
DeaIe Beach.
BUYS TRACT
Recently the Holloway Com.
pany acquired large tract of
bay front property and a village
has been laid out following the
natural lines of the terrain.
Deale Beach is we'll drained and
well wooded in sections and is
an ideal place to buy water
front domestic.
prices at the present time
are extremely reasonable and
see no reason why they will not
appreciate rapidly as the de-
velOpment advances"

NEED OF UNDERCOAT

Close-grained woods, such as
cherry, birch, white wood or
maple, require an undercoat, or
primer. to fill the pores of the
wood before applying the final
finish. This prevents the final
coat from sinking in and disap-
pearing in spots.

low the frost line?
At usually is not consid-
cred necessary to run the foot

the frost line. This is due to the
fact that in dry stone wall the
stone is laid up without mortar
and the separate pieces of stone
can move slightly, adjusting
themselves to the frost action.
The face of such a. wall should
be sloped back at least one-haN
a foot for every foot of height

O'Brien Winner
Over Jeffries

HARLINGEN. June 5. Patrick
OBrien. the rough Irishman from
the Brazos bottoms, won himself
another wrestling match here
Tuesday night when he defeated
Billy Jeffries after a hammer-and-
tongs battle.
Jeffries, nephew OF Jim Jeffries,
former heavyweight boxing cham
pion. proved a tough customer. He
did not bother with the nice points
OF the game and obviously was in
tent on doing damage at any cost.
On one occasion, Jeffries put Re-
fierce George Poulos on the mat for
the count.
But O'Brien was equal to the
occasion. He took the first with
the OBrien special, dropped the
second to q flying tackle and body
slam, and then came back TO win
the deciding fall in spectacular
fashion. Jeffries launched himself
in q flying tackle and OBrien
jumped high. This was unfortunate,
for 1t resulted in a dead stick
landing outside the ring for Mr..
Jeffries. From then on. 1t was easy
work for Pat.
Walter Stratton and Walt Miller
came out even after a tough scrap
In the opener. Each won a fall.

Phillies made the accusation, DAT

field.
