After a wave of speculative build-
ing and purchasing such as Detroit
has gone through-1011i in still gluing
through—it is very encouraging to
find that the number of people who are
building fur their own use is increas-
ing, and that is the chief value of the
Builders' Show -to encourage the
home seeker to build his own house as
he wants it—the kind of house best
suited to his needs, the size of his
family, the size Of his income—to
eliminate expensive and often dis-
couraging experimentation — to. pro-
mote the use of materials of sufficient
good quality to insure permanence.
Here is one exposition where the
builder can look and discuss and study
the various displays and draw his own
conclusions as to what is the best in-
vestment for him--why it is the best
• for hint. Ile will therefore build with
confidence—hence the slogan of the
show, It pays to know.•
Everyone dreams about the home he
wants to have some day, but very of-
ten these plans seem to be in the very
distant future, surrounded by vague
clouds, obstacles that seem very big.
The Builders' Show makes it easier to
give definite form to these plans.
The dates of the sixth annual show
are March first to eighth inclusive. It
will be held in the General Motors
Building. You can select your site,
your architectural plans, get specifi-
cations on building materials, heating
equipment, wiring, roofing, lighting,
fixtures, plumbing fixtures, paint—
everything from the doorknob on the
front door to the padlock on the gar-
age door!
Every question that could arise
about the building of a home is an-
swered here. From the selection of
the site and the financing of the build-
ing to the last shingle on the roof, the
final cost of varnish or enamel—the
very locks on the doors—all are
brought toget her in this one exposi-
tion.

This year for the first time, the De-
troit Real Estate Board is of
with the Detroit Builders' Exhibition,
Inc., in staging the exposition. The
decision of the realtors to co-operate
has added impetus to other exhibitors
so that this promises to be the largest

The Detroit public library, as usual,
will have an educational exhibit on
home economics and interior decorat-
ing. The hanks will be there with fi-
nancing plans. Furniture exhibits,
electrical accessories, rather, necessi-
ties, plumbing fixtures (and there are
probably no other fixtures of a house
that have improved in appearance so
much in the last few years), stoves,
wiring, paint, cement—exhibits to in-
terest the contractor and exhibits to
interest the prospective builder—most
of all the prospective builder.
Many people who might own homes
do not feel confident about doing so.
But at the Buiders' Show they can
look and ask questions and judge for
themselves what is the best location,
what kind of a house best suits their
needs, what kind ■ .f materials are most
durable, what scheme of interior fin-
ishing and furnishing is most attrac-
tive, they can judge for themselves,
rather than taking someone rises'
word for it and always wondering af-
terwards if they have done the right
thing.

"Sales of Nash cars at automobile
shows held so far this season through-
out the country are heavier by a wide
margin than ever before in the history
of the company. Reports received by
the factory from distributors and
dealers at points where shows have
been held show an increase in some
instances of 200 and 300 per cent in
show sales."

that from every indicaitno will eclipse
any previous shortage in the history
of the automobile industry.
"Practically every spring finds the
automobile dealer body unable to meet
the demand for immediate delivery,"
said E. H. McCarty, general sales
manager of The Nash Motors Corn-
pany. "The Nash retail selling or-
ganization, at this time is carrying
on its books more unfilled retail orders
for spring delivery than at any time
since this company was established.
Many of our dealers, having passed
through spring shortage periods of the
past, anticipated their requirements
this year and have on hand stocks of
cars in quantities sufficient to carry
them partly through the approaching
'rush season.'
"Those dealers who have failed to
stock a sufficient number of cars this
year are going to find it more difficult
than ever before, because of the heavy
demand, to take care of the orders

inclusion of Hebrew or Yiddish as a
language of instruction for Jews in
public and high schools. The memo-
randum further demands that the
Talmud Yeshivas be permitted to
continue as schools recognized by the
government. Another request is that
instruction in Jewish schools be per-
mitted on Sunday so that there might
be no need for attendance by Jewish
pupils in the state schools on Satur-
days and Jewish holidays. Still an-
other request is that Jewish religion
and history be included in the cur-
ricula of all public and high schools.
The teachers for these subjects would
be chosen by the Kehillah and would
have an equal standing with other
secular teachers and would be paid
by the state or government. The
memorandum reproached the govern-
ment for not supporting Jewish
schools up to now.

attack against Zirelson's demands,
