Bonds are always good or bad investments, depending entire ly upon the character of the as sets that stand behind them. The assets are the sentinels of good bond investments. With a reputable trust company standing guard between the . bond-buyer and the issuing company, the proposition is safe if the. assets are strong enough to orotect the investor. Therefore, it is apropos to ask. "What makes bonds good?" To be more pertinent, what makes OCEAN SHORE, BONDS good? Remember a few things. Tbe road is 80 miles long, pene testing a country that is devel oping with unprecedented rapidity. The realty holdings of the company in all the cities between San Francisco : and Santa Cruz, therefore, are cer tain to constantly increase the assets of the company. Over 30 miles of Ihe road have been completed, engines, cars and all other equipment have been pur chased, and that part, of the road is in operation, earning money ngnt now. The pros pective earning capacity of the road is amazing, approximating, from the very start, $1,000,000 annually. These things make a railroad secure for all time. With real estate now owned. valued at over 5Z.000.000, with over $3,000,000 already invested in convertible assets, with the wealthiest Citixens of California behind it with $5.000.000 . of capital stock fully paid up, with ine opportunity richer than that of any other short line in the United States these thinl-s make the bonds of the OCEAN SHORE RAILWA Y, COM PANY good s beyond the oer. adventure of a doubt.
