132 WILMETTE LIFE Septe~1ber 24, 1926 Seattle tQ Be Scene of 'Realty Convention Seattle, Wash., has been chosep as the place of holding the next annual convention of the National Association of Real Estate boards. Date of the convention has tentatively been set for August 9-12, inclusive. Date of the annual business · meeting of the association, which will be held in Miami, Fla., was placed as ] anuary 12, 13 and 14. Choice of a convention city was made bv tl1e directors of the association at· their quarterly meeting just held in C.hicago. The August date is a de'parture from the association's practice of some years to hold its annual convention in J nne. The change was made with the idea that an August meeting would be fav..orable to the business plans of the largest proportion of the membership, and with the further idea that it would be advisable to decrease the present half-year's over-lapping_ between the period of election of officers for any year and the period of their taking office.
