BRADY STARTS HOME
WITH RUNAWAY SON
Ball Team Misses Farewell to
Washington Boy Who Went
to See Training.
James T. Brady, solicitor of the
Veterans' Administration, was headed
back toward Washington from Or
lando, Fla., today with his runaway
son, Jimmy, 12, who went South last
Monday to see the Washington base
ball team in Spring training.
The Bradys left the home of friends
at Palatka, Fla, near Orlando, late
yesterday and started for Washington
without taking the boy to the
National’s camp.
Jimmy, enthuastic base ball fan and
frequent Summer visitor to Griffith
Stadium, had a talk with Clark
Griffith and Cecil Travis at Orlando
Tuesday, after he had been found
there by American Legionaires and
police.
The father had promised to take
his son to the Orlando base ball park,
but it is believed today the visit was
abandoned to avoid further publicity
in connection with the lad's im
promptu train ride to the South.
Brady was accompanied by his wife
and daughter Anne, 9. on a motor
trip to Florida Tuesday to get the
boy, who was taken care of by friends
of the family in Palatka.

There’s Economy
in Organization
Whether it is one minor repair that is
needed or an emergency trouble—
or an elaborate renovizing and
modernizing — hundreds of property
owners in Washington have put the
efficiency and economy of the Eberly
Plan to the test and always with one
verdict — entire satisfaction w ith
what was done; the manner of doing it
—and the charge for it.
It isn’t a matter of competition. It
IS a matter of SUPERIOR and
COMPLETE ORGANIZATION.
There’s nothing needed to be done about
your home that the Eberly Plan hasn’t
a past master in that craft on its staff
to do it.
For all this variety of service there’s
only one overhead. Each individual job
done shares in that economy—and in
the earned discounts for materials used.
That’s why we emphasize—there IS
economy in the Eberly Plan.
Your phone call will bring our
sup ervisor for consultation and
suggestions.
