A point well taken. Tee Wo 4p The realtors of Key West ares Bit afraid of publicity, none of them advertise what they have to sell. The result-is that nearly every day prospective buyers of real estate and others desiring room accommo- dations, ete., come to The Citizen office for this information, They are invariably di- rected to the Chamber of Commerce, the logical place for such inquiries, and parti- cularly so, since the real estate agents are so timid. We are unaware how the process cortinues from there on, but presumably the secretary gives them the list of stich real estate agents whe are members of that civic body.
