A GLIMPSE INTO .THE FUTURE Again we state and most emphatically that if Parkrose had no other inducements, advantages or attractions aside from the investment feature, we unreservedly state it is still the greatest and best offer ever made since the opening of Rose City Park four years ago. Streets will be of uniform order laid out to fit into the Portland system and become a harmonious, part of tho city. This property is bound to develop even faster than did Rose City Park. It can't help it. It's in the direct path of the most rapidly growing part of the city. It's the ONE natural ave nue for the city to expand. . It means you can a little later divide up your acre into city lots, if you choose, and dispose of them at prices which will mean anywhere from 300 per cent to 500 per cent profit at least. That's what happened at Rose City Park. It's bound to occur-again in Parkrose. It's inevitable. SALE OPENS TOMORROW (MONDAY) PROMPTLY AT 0:00 A. M. Here's fair warning.
