The Addison farm OF so acres, own

by the same company that supplies
the city.
A delightful park of four acres,

at once also public square with an
attractive fountain.
A million and a half dollars will be
expended in manufactures and other
industries located on lands adjoining
these lots, making Sabraton the logi-
cal place for the homes of the two
thousand men to be employed in these
mills and factories; these lots being
the most available ones for the five
hundred homes which will be required
Immediately for the workmen.
Why should Morgantown want
public lot sale?
1t is plain business propositions:
/. In sight of Sabraton Addition
we have located and now under con.
struction The Rolling Mill Co. OF
America which will employ 1900 men
This alone should be the means Of
selling the full number OF lots adyeT-
tiled.
q The West Virginia Plate Glass
Co., employing 250 people; Sd. The
Pressed Prism Plate Glass Co. employ
ing 100 people 4th The aluminium
Steel and Iron Coating Co., employing
$50 men: 5th. The Marilla Glass CO.
operative Window Glass Co., employ
ing 100 men
All these industries will be in sight
of Sabraton.
I. The Fulmer Coal & Coke Co. is
in operation within of mile of Sa-
braton. 1t will employ over 300
men. Sth Stephen B. Elkins has
begun operations on the large tract
Of coal land owned by him In the
Decker's creek valley. He will en-
ploy several hundred men. The
Decker's Creek Coal & Coke Co. has
also begun work on its plant. 1t will
employ several hundred men. Both
works are within two miles OF Sabra-
tion.
All these immense new industrial
Improvements mean that Morgantown
is to become the Pittsburg of the
Monongahela Valley and that in the
near future she will have population
of twenty-five thousand people.
When we say that the great num-
Der of factories, mills etc. will employ
1000 people within short time, are
we not justified in saying that
inside of Is months or two
years, from 3 to thousand people
will be employed by the great indus
tries surrounding Sabraton?
ALI these industrial improvements
mean more to Morgantown than we
can at first realize.
Pittshurg the workshop of the world,
Morgantown the work shop Of w. Va.
Can you afford to miss the intro
ductory lot sale at Sabraton? on Sep

g. K. every half hour on day of lot
