, ' THE SUNDAY OREGOyiAy, PORTLAyp, NOVEMBER 22, 1903. MMLIBNS WEI ME MADE Within WILL YOU R Jmkm L "jHy If you are in doubt about making an investment at University Park, ask any business man about it-ask anybody. Don t stop at getting one man's opinion, but ask ten or a hundred sensible Portland: citizens. Even those who are interested in building up other Lrts of the City must admit that there is a big barrel on tap on the Peninsula.

Do you doubt that all these things wUl quickly bring F Eis to T the Peninsula, of which University Pak is the center? By the way, I almost forgot to mention the stock-yards and SS housesT wSchin themselves have made large cities of other places and which lie northeast from.Uniyersity Park, a direc Eon f ?om wS the winds never blow. Emphasize the word never in the last sentence. Some day you will call yourself a fool with 110 a big F if you don't get a few lots at University Park within 30 days from now. Law of Supply and Demand The law of supply and demand works the double cross "at University" Park. The almost "unlimited supply of factory and mill sites on the low land will for -many years make such. -sites cheap, which will have the effect of continu ally attracting factories around the Peninsula, and making demand on the high land for business and residence locations. The high land suitable for residences and business purposes is lim ited by the rivers, there being only 100 feet square above high water for each person now residing there. It is quite clear to any person that this condition must make extremely high values on the high lands, of which University Park is the center. The O. R. & N. R, R., as shown on the map, is at the base of the high land. Study the picture. You cannot get any of the benefit of this condition unless you get a piece of this high land. Only one lot at University Park will in a few years, from now be worth a small fortune. We Are Not Fakers Our plat shows that we are not fakers. We laid out University Park con fidently expecting that some day it. would be the center of a great city. We have made many of our streets 100 feet wide and have placed an alley back of every lot. These conveniences will at tract business in a business district. Fakers always make their lots 25x100 feet, without alleys, and with long blocks and narrow streets. Nearly all our lots are 110 feet or more in length. Although in the. very center of the Peninsula, we are offering lots at Uni versity Park at lower prices than can be obtained at any other place on the Peninsula. Our prices must be ad vanced soon and many times before long. STUDY THE PICTURE-IT TELLS THE TRUTH - . wm None too poor to buy on our terms. We require only nrl 1 I 3 TG Otl I I1 1 V IVI OT1 PV enough down to show good faith and a little monthly WJLVIUJ.CLIA JLL WUJ. xvx"jr to keep you interested. Ten per cent cash down at time of sale and five dollars per lot per month, without interest, is speculating on our money, because you get the advantage of the rise in value for years before you have made your final payment. Buy a lot, even though you cannot carry more than 25 by 100 feet. Only 25 by 100 feet at University Park will be a fortune in a few years from now. The opportunity to buy lots on the installment plan on the Peninsula will soon be a thing of the past, because all lots will soon have passed into the hands of those who will sell only for a large portion of the price in cash down at time of sale. Your opportunity is now, while lots are yet cheap and terms easy. Three hundred dollars for 25x110 feet will look very cheap within six months from now. Prices will be advanced from time to time without notice. FRANC A 617-618 Commercial Block Mc Yj?3 1T Wf V Second and Washington Streets A.
