BUYERS FROM WINNIPEG, EDMONTON, MONTREAL AND OTHER POINTS, ON THEIR WAY TO THE MIRROR SALE.
The New Town is Situ
ated on an Elevation
and is Near Beauti
ful Buffalo Lake
When the town Mirror vu laid out mty
advantag of tb. natural feature was taken to
facilitate. business.' and to Insure an attractive
residential auction. Reservation of land for muni
cipal building, schools, churches and two parka
have beeo made. Two broad boulevards and wide
streets are feature. The town la situated upon an
elevation which runa north and south and alopea
grnliy westward to tha railroad and eastward to
Buffalo Lake. From this, elevation a magninoent
view la had of the surrounding- country; tha Tlew
westward being broken by a low line of hills miles
away.
A pleasant half hour's walk east brings one
to the edge of FufTalo Lake, which la 11 miles
lone with an extreme width of I miles. An
Indented shore line and numerous Islands enhance
the beautlea of this lake, and aa Ita wmtera are
fresh, ram fish abound, while ducks and other
water fowl fa ror It aa a breed In plaoe.
And tha moat logical way to become one Is to Invest In Mirror sow, at first prices, and get tha
firm footing- that makes for success. Tha mere fact that more Chan a quarter of a million dol
lars were lnreated in Mirror Lou In eleven hours should help you to decide In favor of Mirror.
Tour own best Judgment should tell yon that a group of business men with that much money in
vested there, will exert their efforts and Influence to the Interest of the town. To stand shoulder
to shoulder with them, will mean much to you. Their Investment has already lifted Mirror above
the commonplace and has started It well on the road to a thriving- town. Confidence such as these
men displayed In Mirror la "rare; when you meet such confidence let it serve as your guide. Con
fidence like this eliminates doubt; It fosters success. But what established this confidence? What
Inspired men from two continents to assemble at Mirror July 11th and 12th and invest mora
than a quarter of a million dollars there? There are other opportunities, good ones too, in
other parts of Canada and elsewhere for safe Investments. Men do not travel hundreds of miles
to seek an Investment unless It is an - especially attractive one, yet there were men from the four
points of the compass at Mirror and they bought Mirror Lots they bought 677 of them in 6
minutes; almost a lot a minute. Why? Simply because
Mirror is to be a Divisional Point on the
Edmonton-Calgary Branch of the
G.T.P.Ry. and Because Mirror is
Surrounded by Alberta's
Fertile Acres
