It defines the seferal containers now in use in connection with business. ‘Tons, barrels, bushels and multiples of them, boxes, crates, baskets and lugs are among the containers described. Under the provisions of the Federal law, it is stated, shippers of commodities from other sections will have to be careful to do their shipping dhly in containers defined by the provisions of the act.

Lipscomb Company for the Estates. The Colonial Estate ' : Home for the Modern}} , Estate Dweller The Early American type of home is delightfully adapted to country life. It was originally designed and built for that purpose. Upon its broad verandas and through its stately entrances Colonial society moved and enjoyed that free, com- fortable existence that people today reflect upon with envy. The above Early American home is an accurate replica of this charming homestead of yesterday. Its solid, sturdy con- struction and massive chimney suggests restful, sociable, eve- nings around broad, open fireplaces—while outside the moon- lit painted hills of Rock Creek Park Estates reflect the quiet grandeur of early Colonial landscape.

Note: HAMPSHIRE GARDENS sought the above certification from the National Association of Real Estate Boards not only be- cause of its value in gaining the confidence of the public in this project, but also because the developers are in perfect accord with the noble purpose of the National Association of Real Estate Boards in offering the Realtors the services of its Consultation Committees. All reflable dealers will undoubtedly avail themselves of this service and the public will soon refuse to buy in any development that has not such a certification, This will quickly eliminate all unreliable and fraud- ulent practice, permit the public to buy with confidence and elevate the real estate profession to the highest plane.
