Large Lapd Sale
Starts Monday.
Lots in Wright's Addition to the VII
lase Of L'Anse Will Be Choice
Investment.

The placing on sale of the lots in
Wright's addition to the village Of
L'Anse will be boon to those new
settlers who are locating in L'Anse, as
it gives them an opportunity to get q
lot on which to build home for a
small amount of money. The payments
are so arranged that it is impossible
for anyone to fail in making them, as
ample opportunity is given the purch-
aser
The terms on which lots in the new
addition are sold, presents an oppor-
tunity for investment that should be
taken advantage of by every man and
woman that considers real estate a
safe investment. 1t requires no stretch
of imagination to see tie increase in
values of all town property. The new
businesss interests now locating here
should be considered but fore-runner
of the things to come. Buildings of all
kinds are at premium now and vacant
property that has not already changed
hands in the past few months is being
held for the advance in prices that
must come when families begin to
settle here permanently. 81
Local business men who have care
fully studied the situation and outsiders
who keep in touch with the trend of
times. have invested heavily in L'Anse
real estate, feeling assured that the
future holds much in store for the
property holders of this town. Those
that invest but dollar a week in lots
in this new addition may find a more
profitable investment than the man who
invests thousands OF dollars in down
town property.

School Bank
System a Winner.
Over One Hundred Dollars Deposited
by Students OF L'Anse In the
Past Six Weeks.

The school savings department in
augurated by the L'Anse and Pequam-
ing schools six weeks ago has proven
one of the most successful ventures
ever undertaken by the school board.
Over one hundred dollars have been de-
posted by the children in that short
time, showing that the children have
gotten the spirit of thrift and are de-
veloping habit which will prove very
beneficial to them in the future and one
that should be taught every child, as
the habit once formed is never forgot
ten.
Each pupil is provided with pass
book and a banking department is con-
Quoted by the students in the higher
rooms.
1t was with some hesitancy that the
the board of education finally decided
to add this department to the school,
it being thought that the district was
not large enough to support the depart
ment comfortably and that it would be
somewhat of an expense, but after a
thorough investigation into its merits
and success in the larger schools, it
was decided to give the department a
fair trial. 1t has certainly proven a
success in very short time.
