POTOMAC HEIGHTS POPULAR
PROMOTERS REPORT NEARLY
100 LOTS SOLD.

Although the subdivision of Potomac
Heights was opened to the purchasing
public August Is. hardly six weeks ago,
93 lots, of an aggregate cost to the pur-
chasers exceeding $4,000. have been sold
to responsible and desirable persons a
number of whom are planning to build
handsome and substantial homes this fall
and early next spring.
The special all-day private sale an
nounced for Thursday. October 7, will
undoubtedly draw a large and interested
crowd to Potomac Heights and result in
many sales Of lots. The low prices
10 cents for inside and 1S cents for out
side or corner lots-making the average
cost~of lot $3.50 to $5OO-gives the
thrifty salary-earner an exceptionally
good opportunity to secure a beautiful
home site in a picturesque, healthful and
accessible neighborhood. An advance in
prices of lots is contemplated soon; and
those who would benefit by present terms
and rates. and also secure the best choice
in the property, are certain to avail
themselves of the proposition now Of
fered.
+ The Potomac Heights Land Company
owners and developers of the suburb, are
planning improvements on liberal and
age, cement pavements. shade and orna-
mental trees, and other features. No
building will be permitted under a cost
of $500. All lots are within one min
ute's walk of the trolley line, which
reaches all parts of the city, for one fare.

will be one Of the most desirable and at
property is reached by the Georgetown
