Wealthy Chicagoan Buys Demand for Bathrooms Problem with Brokers The increasingly insistent demand for a large number of bathrooms in homes placed upon the market promises to force architects to plan houses, like hotels, having "every room with private bath." It is also hastening the growth of gray hairs on the scalps of local real estate dealers. "It's nothing uncommon for people to demand three bathrooms in a six- room house. But the older homes in Wilmette were not built that way," one dealer wailed. "The newer homes are not for sale and the parties don't want to build. What to do? What to do?" The parents, the children, the maids and guests must each have their own bathrooms. They must be on each floor, flank each hall, be convenient to every bedroom. They are to be found in garages, kitchens, basements and at- tics. Yet they must be so built into the house as to be convenient, but in- conspicuous; they must be everywhere, yet appear to be nowhere. It's a big problem, moan the dealers 44 Boys Get Diplomas at the Glenwood School Diplomas were presented to 44 boy graduates of Glenwood Manual Train- ing school at the graduating exercises held Sunday afternoon in Memorial hall on the school campus at Glen- wood, Ill, before a group of interested friends and patrons.

Clark St., Chicago, IIL You Want Phone State 8825 HOT SPELL HITS TRANSFER BOOM But Brokers Are Ready for Autumn Activity Hot weather cut down the expected large number of week-end visitors to local real estate offices, although a healthy condition of the general mar- ket for north shore property continued to be indicated, in spite of the fact that actual reported transfers were scarce. Once more the dealers are in a state of closing deals all along the line, but which are not yet ready for announce- ment. Last week's long list of transfers included a large number of deals which had been "hanging fire" more or less all summer. The majority of those upon which the brokers are now work- ing, however, seem to be the product of late summer inquiries and are new business. Both vacant and improved properties are finding a normally good demand and the approaching expiration of leases in the fall is stirring considerable activity along those lines.

IIL dwellers are seeking winter homes and vacationists are planning to return so that those who have been leasing for the summer and have been won to the north shore as an ideal place of resi- Jonce seem likely to stay in good num- Ders. It is known that several important deals on some of the best properties along the shore are now pending, with settlements expected within the next few days. In many of these, some money has already passed and an air of expectancy pervades real estate row. With the filling up of the east edges of the towns along the lake, consider- able westward movement has de- veloped. It is not, however, a squeez- ing-out process--the new coming in to crowd out the old--but many new- comers are selecting properties farther and farther west. Among these are many well-to-do families who plan to build expensive homes. The older fam- ilies, in fact, cannot be dislodged easily from their accustomed neighborhoods : it is only that new sections of fine homes seem in process of development. Mr. and Mrs. George B.
