Map Changes Fast

Ten years passes quickly but It Is
long period IN development. The map
of Ell Paso can so change IN ten years
that the man who made II would hard
Iy recognize his work. What do the
people who come back here now after
having been gone ten years have to
say about the changes that have tax
en- place? They are astounded and
every investigation Is a source Of Won
der to them.
Just consider the past ten years

The next ten years vii be bigger

will be greater changes. Here Is your
chance to be the man Of foresight.

Bargains to be Had

Just look about at the bargains you

pieces Of property In this city and
valley that you can buy today for a
small sum and project their worth
when their values are fortified by the
vast development that IS now IN course
and that each year Will strengthen Are

No man ever made a success who was
tossed about by every wind of opinion.
No man has ever risen high whose

A Story of Gotham

OK YEARS before the first public train IN New

definitely announced the route the train would travel
The Foresghed man opened his eyes.
Five years before the first train was run B. Mcdonald
had put his bid to construct the subway along the route laid
out two years before.
The fOresighted man then sat up and took notice.
-Four years before the first train was run the work of exca

Morning and night for five years every man, and

Everybody was informed years In advance of the details

What Location Does

The man Of foresight sees what
part geographical location and water
transportation have played in the
making Of Chicago and he watches
those things for other Chicagos in the
making. He sees what soil and eli
mate and tourist travel have done for
Los Angeles and he watches for
Los Angeles IN the process of develop
ment. He sees what irrigation has
made of the Western Slope and the
Imperial Valley and bears It in mind
IN considering the lands under the Ele-
plant Butte dam. He has seen a
sorry and neglected corner lot become
a choice business corner worth a hun

CHANCES In
Ell PASO
NOW
The FOresighted Men Are
the Men Who Win;
Who Get In Ahead.

TWTHAT is the prime difference
w between the man who makes
money in real estate and the
man who does not2
One has foresight and the other
has hindsight. One is thinker and
an observer and keeps pace with the
times. The other is a dOubter and
victim of hesitation and indecisiOn.
The fOresighted man sees in advance
what IS going to occur.
He draws his lessons from history
and from observation. He does not
need to go back to GalilIeo for the
declaration The world do move" He
sees It with his own eyes and every
thing he sees points It's object lesson.

The Way to a Fortune

More American fortunes have been
made through the rise IN value of real
estate than through all other causes
combined If history during the last
century has taught the American peo-
pie any one thing 1t is that the safest,
surest, sanest method in the world of
accumulating wealth is In the pur-
chase of lands, city property, any
thing in the shape of realty. No other
country IN the world offers or has ever
offered such opportunities. Take
every city up and down the length
and breadth of this land and you will
find families whose wealth was
founded by far sighted investment in
that very city. Take any farming
community anywhere and you will
find the same thing. Every man knows
hundreds of people whom he can
point out as those whose investments
IN real estate have made them indie
pendent. At the same time he can
point out scores who had equal OPP
portunities but lacked the foresight to
recognize and sieze them.

The Man Who Plans

He plans He outlines. He pro-
jects. He forecasts. He pictures in
his mind from what, he knows of yes
terday and today what tomorrow will
be. He has seen the past. He knows
the present. From those two he can
Judge the future.
The hindsighted man sees things
after they have occurred. If he does
project the future he fails to act upon
it He waits to see. He waits for
each days sun to rise before he Is
sure of that day. He does not con
slider yesterday and today and so plan
with exactitude what tomorrow will
be-

The FOresighted Man

The foresighted man sees a plot of
ground and figures not merely what
It is today but what history and ex-
ample the world over have taught
him 1t will be five years from now.
The hindsighted man sees it only as It
Is today. The fOresighted man looks
at a city lot with the idea Of what
1t viii be as that city progresses. as
the shifting tides of business draw
close to It or the construction of fine
homes IN It's locality begins. The
hindsighted man looks at It only as It
then IS. nor takes account of progress
sion and change. One has a fixed
base from which he looks at things as
they are. The Others brain carries
him forward into the future. The
hindsighted man sees the same things
as the man of foresight but he sees
them afterwards usually when it IS
too late for the seeing to be of any
use. The one has arrived before
the other has even started.

Back Your Judgment

Back your judgment upon FL Paso.
You are upon the ground today. You
are present at the scene of action. The
metamorphosis Is already taking place.
The trasition from a merely thriving
city to a center of progress and a
great metropolis IS already IN course.
Yet the game Is young. 1t Is barely IN
It's commencement today. The pro
gress of the last Ten years viii be IN
significant IN comparison with what
IS coming. Some men talk about the
opportunities they see and at the same
time act upon them. Others say they
are going to do so but take It out in
merely talking about It. The proof
of the pudding Is not in chewing the
rag. You see these things coming.
You discuss them with your friends.
You hear them as a topic of CONVEX
sa6on IN ever corner of Ell Paso. Will
your line be to simply talk about them
or to talk and act as well? Opportu-
nifty Is here. Will you sieze it2 Are
you a man of foresight Then prove

Progression is the price of place.

around and make it read the chance
that you passed by" and it IS more
nearly correct in the customary case.

Impressive Lessons

These object lessons have made an
impression. They have made him a
student of history. Not the kind of
history that is taught in the text books.
But the history of progress. The his
tory of the moves Of men. The his
tory Of the growth of cities. The his
tory of the development Of the farms.
The history Of railroad building, fac
tory location, soil and climate and
human desire. 1t is upon these he
bases his reckoning. He is not a wiz
ard. He is not wonder. He uses
plain, hard, common sense. He puts
two and two together and makes the
total four.

WOMAN NOVELIST
IS SHOT TO DEATH
Miss Eileen GILES, Of PhiIadeI-
phia, Found SIainin Sar-
dinian Cottage.

sASsARI, Island Of Sardinia, Jan. II.
Claiming to have evidence Of mur-
der. the police today abandoned the
suicide theory in the death Of Miss
Eileen GILES, a young woman writer
of Philadelphia, who was shot to
death late last night in her cottage
here.
Miss GILES was shot through the
breast near the heart In her hand
was clutched a roll Of bank notes.
A revolver near the body and the
position Of the wound led the police
on superficial examination 70 believe
the young novelist killed herself, but
closer examination led them to sus-
pect murder.
The police are searching for a young
Sandman nobleman who was known
to be infatuated with Miss GILES, and
whose advances she repulsed. The
nobleman Is missing from his home.
At the same time the police are
working on the robbery theory and
looking for brigands, though the pres
ence Of the money in the dead girls
hand gave little backing to the rob-
berry belief.
Miss GILES lived in a small cottage
with her aged mother. Mrs. Browning.
The mother was not at home when
the girl was killed. They came to
Sardinia about q year ago, Miss GILES
being in search of local color for
Italian stories.
