1t is a growing city of 1850 peo-

Why should man bring his family
to American Falls. Because American
Falls offers him opportunities to pro-
vide for them-whether In a business
way or farming. American Falls offers
his family social and pleasure attrac-
lions. 1t is very pleasant to live in
American Falls.
When this man brings his family
here, he has in mind making 1t his
home for good. He is going to spend
all his efforts and time to build up
that home. He is investing his labor
to provide for his family. "A city
built by men like this will always
grow and prosper.
The more attractive he makes his
home. the more valuable 1t becomes.
In ten years, his original investment

Falls, as a whole. keeps pace with
him.
The merchant coming to American
Falls to go into business, sees at a
glance that 1t is a hustling and bust

always improving. This gives him
confdence-he sees his way of in
vesting in a stock of goods and opens
up to serve the people with the neces

the best goods made. He wants to
give TO the people of the community
the best possible at a reasonable cost
to them and a reasonable profit to
himself. Thereby, one more store is
added to the business district of the
town. And so It keeps going, more
and more people locating, and more
and more business concerns investing
money in goods and in the present
and future prosperity OF American
Falls.
And so we have a city going for
