Penn's Grove if houses could be pro-
lcured. Why should not more be built
. There is vacant land enough for houses.
There is money enough to be had on

be had and carpenters and masons te
be employed. When the houses are
built and families move here they dea
at the stores here instead of in othel
towns. Building houses should pay
