The easiest occupation OF a family is to ac-

rid of this accumulation is to move into diff

away the better, for it costs to transfer stuff
from one place to another and if it has to go
a long way, the supply dminishes with every
mile.
Another remedy can be applied in the

100 BLOCK OF VARNUM

From every standpoint this
house is worth investigation. First,
because of it's price, which is
$3.50; second, because 1t will ade-
ouately take care of the needs OF
the family that is compelled to
have four bedrooms or more; and,
third, because of its extremely de-
sirable location. Altogether there
are eight rooms and two baths
and a two-car garage. While it is
not a brand new house, it has
been completely reconditioned
throughout and has all the up-to-
date improvements. 1 can frankly
say it is one of the best values in
town. If your choice should
fall on this house you can select
the interior decorations.
HYATTSVILLE, MD:
What more thrill could one de-
sire that to spend Christmas in
a new home? Imagine the JOY
you would give your family if you
would surprise them in that way.
This house is suitable for small
family and is an adorable new
brick bungalow, only five minutes
distance from stores and trans
portation facilities. In a lovely
wooded setting with gnarled old
trees in the background, this home
offers the ultimate in houses. It
has two full-sized bedrooms and
additional space in the attic that
could be easily turned into more
room for the growing family; there
is a large living room with wood
burning fireplace, dining room
and kitchen, all beautifully deco
rated. If you hurry, the builder
will give you a hand in the selec.
ton of the wall paper and the

bungalow is only $6450.
