Every activity in this city points -to prosperity. I have made it a business, the last few days,.to ask 'How's business with The answers I have received would make you think that every man is a bloated bondholder. Business conditions were never so good as they are right now. As a direct result of excellent business conditions, men are enlarging their plants, their stores, their outputs; they are moving to bigger quarters, into new buildings, remodeling old ones. Truly, Portland's fade is being chan ged every day. . iYes, the old postoffice building is to be vacated. ? Why? Because the business of the postoffice department . .... The government is to build bigger, better and more Better things are in enormous dema nd. Even, better homes and better home sites. You would actually be surprised at the list of PORTLAND MEN OF ABILITY AND STABILITY who have expressed themselves forcibly as in tending to build their homes on WESTOVER TERRACES. A list of them would look like a list of the bank directors, presidents of corporations and other BIG MEN OE THE CITY. It is a shame that WESTOVER TERRACES is not big enough for all of them. Not that all of them will eventually buy, but that all of them will EVENTUALLY, wish thoy had. - 7 .. I venture to say, without fear of contradiction, There will not be a group of 300 lots in the Pacifc northwest, a few years from now, that will represent such an enormous aggregate wealth of own ers, as WESTOVER TERRACES. The finest, richest and best known people of western A,merica will drive fo their homes in WESTOVER TERRACES, . ' Not far from now. .
