NEGRO CONTRACTOR suiLDs

NOM Z. e1
Erects . Handsome Residence Among
Wealthy Neiahbors. Attention
and Ability the Foundation
OF Ills Success.
Mr.. #. Peoples, a local Negro Con-
tractor and Builder recently added
five hundred (s50000) dollars more
to his fine house at 3732 Portland
Avenue. making the value now four
thousand ($4,oO0.00) dollars instead Of
thirty-five ($3.500.00) hundred dol
lars. This most beautiful home, which
Is being built for his private res
idence. equals anything today on
Portland Avenue. where dwell the
many financiers of Minneapolis. It
would be well for some Of our people,
who contemplate on building up-to-
date homes, to 60 out and look at this
beautiful residence and see for them
selves that we have q man of our
own race who is fully capable, both
scientifically and financially, Of build
ing and constructing up-to-date mod
ern residences as any builder In the
City Of Minneapolis. and Is fully cap
able Of protecting his clients to the
extent Of giving them a fair and
square deal so there will be no liens
placed on your home after 1t Is built,
and you will not have to pay your
money twice. as has been the case In
many instances with some Of our peo-
pie in Minneapolis who have had
other contractors to build their
homes.
Mr.. Peoples, to guarantee first
class workmanship and to meet with
the large competition, takes right
hold daily with his workmen, direct
ing and planning and seeing that each
man does his work in a competent
and painstaking manner, and many q
carpenter has been discharged by Mr..
Peoples for trying to neglect their
duty in doing first-class work while
in his employ; which goes without
saying, that Mr.. Peoples is not only
Contractor, but first-class carpen--
ter within himself, having over
Eighteen (18) Years experience.
Mr.. Peoples has just launched two
(2) more large contracts for building:
one a Ten-Room, all modern duplex
at 1852 Clinton Avenue, costing about
forty-five hundred ($4,500.00) dollars;
and the other Seven-Room, modern
cottage at 2S1S 18th Avenue South.
costing about three thousand esq.,.
100000 dollars. These two (2) build.
ings are to go under construction at
once, which goes to show that Mr..
Peoples ability and honesty is bring
ing him his share of the business.
Mr.. Peoples ability is not only
recognized by his own people, but
highly esteemed by the white race
as well, who are not at all backward
in calling at his office and submitting
their wants, and viewing his many
beautiful plans, and placing their con.
tracts for same.
