For Such characterization as the future RESIDENTIAL DISTRICT of MEDFORD the BEAUTIFUL, we believe the EAST SIDE to be pre eminently fitted and for the following reasons; SANITARY: The gradual slope of this section from the floor of the valley to the foot hills affords ideal hygienic conditions. Drainage is perfect. J3ascineuts are always dry and sanitary. Sewers do not back up and annoy. CLIMATIC: The higher portions of the East Side have a climate essentially different from that, of other sections of the city lying in the valley. The air is purer, the breezes are more frequent and constant and summer days are cooler. VIEW: Erom these slopes a perfect, ever-interesting panaorama of valley, .moun tains and city is spread out before the admirer. ENVIRONMENT: The rolling nature of the ground and its park-like character coupled with frequent broad streets and winding boulevards, give wide scope to individ uality in improvement of home and grounds. Lots are uniformly large and the soil is the best this fertile valley affords. RELATIVE LOCATION: The heart of the East Side is within ten minutes' walk of the banking cen ter; accessible yet secluded from business. Schools and churches are near. OPPORTUNITY calls you to add your effort to that of Medford's architects and help direct, her growth into the proper and natural channels along that road awaits FAME. OPPORTUNITY calls you to take NOTICE and ADVANTAGE of the fact that the East Side is awake and moving; that physical improvements will be effected there within the next six months which will prove more noticable than any yet consumated in the city along that road awaits FORTUNE.
