A BRIGHT OUTLOOK
Outside Capital is Coming to KenOSha
for Investment in all Lines
of Business.
PROSPERITY IS ASSURED US.

Capital is looking for Real Estate Invest
ments Both in and Around Kenosha.-
tits Considered Good, Healthy Place
to Live and to Educate Children.-North
Shore Property is Gradually Increasing
in Value.
There is no doubt now that the next
six months will see an influx of out
side capital and people into our city
such as Kenosha has never seen. The
causes for this are numerous but the
main reason is that capitalists have
faith in Kenosha's prosperity and adj
vancement.
In interviewing the real estate and
business men we find at this time no
less than twelve people or concerns
who are seeking to invest in and
around Kenosha, not only in real
estate, but in business. Some of the
reasons of outsiders, especially from
Chicago and Milwaukee, are given as
follows: "Good money in Kenosha
real estate.'' ''Want a nice summer
home and Kenosha is all right. :"
"Want to send my girls to Kemper
Hall so will buy home here" "There
is good business chance in Kenosha."
81 want some land along the North
Shore here somewhere. And so it
goes, some have one reason and some
have another, but all agree that Keno
sha is all right and that money care
fully invested here or around here is
safe.
If Kenosha people only had some of
the spirit and confidence of the out
siders it would be a good thing for the
town, but when a certain class are
always talking and acting "b1ue" they
are bound to do some damage.
However, Kenosha is going ahead
regardless of this class, and she is
going to have a good healthy growth,
not a ''boom.'' We don't want a
''boom." All we want IS the good,
Legitimate growth which we have had
during the past eight years to continue,
and which necessarily increases as the
city grows, and Kenosha is going to
have it.
