PREDICAMENT!
One of our readers was confronted with
a serious problem. The advancing prop
erty values had caused an increase in
her rent which she did not feel justified
in affording. Yet she did not wish? to
give up her home.
' . - W
What could be done? Could she rent
the upper part of her house f urnished?
She tried the Want Ads . . . result: in 24
hours she had many calls and finally
rented the upper portion of the house
f 0 a young married couple.
Many of the readers of our paper have
used the Want Ads to help them out of
serious predicaments. Your problem
