Finding a new dwelling place used to be like looking for a needle In a hay stack and as fatigueing as a six day bike race. The only means we had was to trudge the streets seeking "To Let" signs, a very discouraging and provoking method indeed -fine business for the chiropodist who doctored our sore feet after a day at it but heart-breaking and souring to the home-seeker. But Oh! How times have changed! No longer are we obliged to icok for homes. They look for us. Where? In the "For Rent" Columns of the Palladium. Get the Palladium Want ad habit whether you have a home for rent or want to rent one. Home seeking isn't a matter of footwork any more. ,
