It approximates $50,000.. Six homes are actually being erected. A score or more are in the hands of architects, contractors or the prospective owner, waiting for minor details, so that they may be completed and ready for occupancy by fall. Why is all this activity? There are a great many reasons for it. Rose City Park is an ideal place for a home. People recognize this just as soon as they step foot upon the addition. There is an atmosphere about Rose City Park that seems to be peculiar to this spot alone. The balmy breezes, the scenic outlook, the healthy elevation and close proximity to business and a dozen other things are attracting home builders. One other important drawing card is the tremendous extent to which the improvements have been planned and the remarkable progress that has already been made. The streets are being graded; the curbs are being put in; the cement sidewalks are being laid; the water mains are being placed and a lot of other things are being rapidly done. These things are important. The street car service is regular and now runs on top of the hill; the ride is a quick one and pleasant as well, and every modern improvement is being pushed as fast as men and money can push them. These are a few reasons why homes are being built so rapidly in Rose City Park. There are other such rea sons as low prices, easy terms, building assistance when needed and the insurance feature in the contract. To be brief, there are a thousand reasons why it is desirable to build in Rose City Park, while it would tax the ingenuity 6f any one to put forth a single reason why such a move is not a splendid one. We will be pleased to visit Rose City Park with you or to give you any detailed information that we can. Call at our office any day or go out with us and see the property for your self. We are certain that you will be captivated when you' see this big addition and we urge you to call at your earliest convenience.

Activity in Bay City (ON TILLAMOOK BAY) Since Bay City property was offered for sale a week ago, that city is beginning to realize somewhat, the destiny that nature and circumstances have thrust upon it. Com mercial activity is already very noticeable. The hotel is being enlarged; a new dry goods store will be opened soon; a new candy store has been started and a new bar ber shop commenced business yesterday. Still more good news for Bay City. Within 90 days the Oregon Electric road will be completed from Salem to Hillsboro. This line in connection with the Lytic road will place all of the Willamette valley in closer touch than ever before. It will enable people from all through the valley to reach Bay City in less than three hours. Bay City is naturally the bay city of Portland. It is Portland's front door. It is the threshold to Portland. It is the center of the finest resort country on the Pacific coast. For every dollar in vested now in Bay City lots, the investor will be able to take out ten within five years. A $50 lot now will be worth $500 in that time. Water front property, located across from the Lytle depot, listed at $7,600 can now be had for $5,000 cash.

POINT NO. 1. Waverleigh the Beautiful is at East Twenty-sixth" street, right in the heart of the East Side. This point figures in favor of a home builder, for distance from the city does not lend enchantment to a home when street cars are tied up; to an investor it means that his property will sooner reach a high market value, POINT NO. 2. Waverleigh the Beautiful has two street car lines that have been running for years and are good paying lines. No danger here of a repetition of what happened a few years ago to a Portland addition when the lota were sold and the patronage of th street cars was too light to justify running can the line was abandoned. Values then diminished to almost nothing. Keep in mind that the W.-W. and W.-R. car lines are permanent institutions and not temporary lines of the experimental order. $10 Secures Your Lot POINT NO. 3. To reach Waverleigh the Beautiful take either W.- W. or WR. cars at Third and Yamhill. A twelve-minute ride will bring you to the most beautiful homesite in Portland. When you reach Waverleigh the Beautiful you overlook the whole city. The mountains make a perfect view to the east These are facts : The location of Wav erleigh the Beautiful is the finest in Portland the views of the city and the, mountain are actual, and not "word pictures" that fail to materialize when you want to see them. Go over any of the extensively advertised tracts in Portland and compare all the oointa thev claim with what they show, and then compare them all with Waverleigh the Beautiful.
