There weremossbacks, pessimists and their like who said all kinds of things against purchasing "way out there at Mt. Hood" but today same $200 lots are valued at $1200 to $1500 and hun dreds and hundreds of peo ple have made three, four and five hundred per cent on their investment. And property two and three miles beyond Rose City Park is selling for more money than those original lots did in Rose City Park four years ago. This is only one example out of thousands which could be given showing the advisa bility of investing in choice property when it is first put on the market at introduc tory prices. Millerst is so close to the very heart of Dallas that the values there will rise much faster than ordinarily. Unlike Rose City Park, Millerst is now surrounded by improved property which is valued at much more than Millerst lots are selling for. Then, too, we have put the terms of purchase at $10 DOWN $10 PER MONTH which makes it possible to purchase and pay for your lot almost before you know it. Right now the prices are $125 to $175 per lot. Buy today. Prices advance 10 per cent July 1st. DALLAS DEVELOPMENT CO P. A.
