REAL ESTATE AS
AN INVESTMENT

Oakland Beach real estate is the safest
and fastest money making investment at
the present day.
Mr.. Bennett at Oakland Beach can
show you ever 20 cottages that are bring
ing their owners 20 per cent on their In
vestment. The owner OF one cottage now
in process Of erection tells the writer
that he has had 16 applications to rent
Il the coming season. Ten days ago he
came hero with the idea OF building one
cottage for his own use. now he Is TO
build three.
What makes Oakland Beach real estate
valuable: First-Transportation 70 and
from Providence; electrics every 20 min
utes during the summer; half hourly In
winter. Second-The finest bathing beach
on Narragansett Bay. Third-Land all
high and dry: no malaria.
When you put your money In Oakland
Beach lots it's safe. II can't run away.
II can't be lost. 1t can't be destroyed.
Don't put your money In mining or oil
stocks that God only knows the value of.
but invest II In real estate where there
Is steady increase In value.
William Jennings Bryan says: Real
estate is the best investment for small
savings. More money is made from the
rise in real estate values than all other
causes combined. To speculate in stocks
is risky. and even dangerous, hut whsr
you buy real estate you arc buying an in
heritance."
Andrew Carnegie says: "The wise
young man or wage carner Of today In
vests his money In real estate
Presden, Roosevelt says: Every per-
son who invests I'm well-selected real es-
tate in growing section OF a prosperous
community adopts the surest and safest
method OF becoming independent. for real
estate Is the basis OF all wealth"
Oakland Beach lots are large, none
smaller than 4oxs0. and they are sold for
cash or on small monthly payments-s10

taxes until final payment Is made; no in
