the fact that there is a growing tend

move in that direction, which ho has
observed during the past nineteen
months. The Bettilyon Home Builders
company office has been located on

IN small profits and large volume of
business. The firm has branches in
Portland, Or, and Denver, and a

fact that they buy in lots of thousands

Mr.. Somnnsfs said that while their
business has increased greatly over
their business of year ago, the most
noticeable fact is that the business

That Mr.. Mayors Judgment was well
founded will be readily conceded, as
will be seen by the increase IN tho
traffic on that street at the present
time, and the facts that tho value Of
property has increased many times. OF
course rents hayo also increased, but
the business warrants the increase.
Mr.. Mayer also said that the NOV
