CHILDS Probably no one is in better position to judge of real estate values and general business conditions than is a bank cashier. Mr. Childs. the cashier of the First National Bank, soon after coming to St. Helens, bought the attrac tive bungalow shown in the above picture. ;Y':Y;:v;i'-:yn Y&i-Y ; ? RESIDENCE OF JOE HAND Mr. Hand is another one of the newcomers to St. Helens who believes in the future of the city. He backed un his judgment by purchasing the modern dwelling shown above. Building Permits for 1918 Total Almost $100,000 There are few people in St. Helenc who realize the great progress of the "Home Building Idea" in this city. It has been aptly arid truthful ly said that the "home building" in any' town is evidence of what the town really amounts to and the faith of the property owner in the town. This being true, it seems certain that St. Helens amounts to something, and in the near future will grow and amount to more. Before buying St. Helens pro perty and building homes, the careful buyer has investigated the many advantages which the city has. The big lumber mills and shipyards which furnish em ployment to hundreds of men; the canning factory which takes the produce of the farmer; the fine farming section adjoining St. Helens and which is being rapidly developed, all tend toward mak ing St. Helens a big city. The churches, schools, public libraries and other advantages, make of St. Helens a most desirable residen tial section. Some of the residences which have been built recently, art shown on this page oi the Mist. It will be noted that they are all .substantially built and are of modern construction. All ot these cottages were built by either the St (Helens Lumbei Company or the St. Helens Ship building Company and sold to the man who wished to be his landlord, at a price much lower than ordinarily such a residence would cost. There are hundreds of well situated lots in St. Helens which may be obtained at most reason able, prices and it is hoped that the "Own Your Own Home" idea will be taken seriously by the many who live in St. Helens and dish out their dollars for a month ly rental, so that they may con clude to build a home and become independent of the landlord. The future of St. Helens is as sured. An investment now, will, in the course of a few years, show big results, and then, those who build houses for themselves have the satisfaction of building ana arranging their own home just a they want it, and in addition to this satisfied feeling, know that they have become identified with the growth and prosperity of St. Helens.
