Have YOu Read and Thought About
Thisi

Every week now scores progress in
the work at West Annapolis. Two
new buildings have been about COM
pleted, convenient and pretty cottages.
Train Master Upton besides finishing
his residence has designed tasty
little poultry house where he proposes
to raise some first class browning
stock. These may be depended upon
to wake up the little city early in the
morning until they get their town
clock. Progress is the word and a
few pushing men such as are now To-
eating will make lively stir over
there. AS rule, West Annapolis lots
have been sold to desirable people.
This is an attractive feature as il en-
sures good community. The houses
they build will DE neat and tasteful
and the occupants will contribute to
the attractions of the place. You can
buy and build at West Annapolis with
the assurance that you will be exempt
from the annoyance of an undesirable
population. Every guard which the
careful management of Mr.. Melvin
can secure will be thrown around the
enterprise. Lot sales will be made to
good people and the class of buildings
to be erected will be such as to add
increased value to the property. In
quirv for these lots continues and
purchasers are likely to realize fine
profit for their investment.
