Here, A Pointer.

Attention is called to the an-
nouncement made this week by the
St. Johns Land Company Of an ad-
vance Of ten per cent in prices on
all lots In Court Place and St. Johns
Park: the same to be effective Jan
uary IS. This is in line with the
ten per cent advance made by the
Title Guarantee and Trust Com
pany on January !. and indicates
that real estate values in st. Johns
are steadily advancing.
Many good judges predict that
prices will advance during the cur
rent year at least fifty per cent
and some look for jump Of fully
100 per cent. 1t is clear to all that
a substantial increase in values will
take place and that St. Johns Is
entering upon the most prosperous
year Of its existence.
