FLINT IS
AT
FAST RATE
Is Even Outd0ing De-
trOit In Proportion
to Size
MOST PROSPEROUS
CITY IN STATE
BY w. w. POWERS,
OF PoweraPitts Realty-"Cross
Acres Addition"


Flint has grown rapidly, and it's
greater growth has just begun. The
pressure has been for immediate
luilding. and in the effort to put a
roof over the heads OF Flint's new
ccmers. little attention has been
paid to well-graded or well-ordered
streets or to well.balanced restric-
tons.
Out Detroit-st., however, q mile
and a half inside the north city
limits, is a district which was LEFT
unspoiled. though still close to car
service.
Half dozen properties have been
opened here, and those already built
up have been rapidly covered with
the best class of moderate-priced
homes.
Cross Acres has been laid. out to
conform with these earlier plats,
and TO provide moderate-priced To-
cation for the better class Of homes.
We look upon the whole move
ment here as sound and strong.
Flint is not lining up another false
boom, and the reason for this is
readily apparent. In 1910 the Buick
and other plants were doing their
best TO create market TO warrant
the expansion Of their plant. Now
they are trying to build plant big
enough to turn out machines to fill
the demand. The difference between
1910 and 1915 is all the difference
between day and night-today's sit
uation will bear the most searching
analysis.
Ex-Gov. Warmers statement at a
recent Board of Commerce meeting
that Flint has a reputation as the
most prosperous city in Michigan
need not look far for its justifica-
ton. We believe Ii to be true that
In proportion to size. Flint is grow
ing at faster rate than even De-
troit
There Is a wonderfully wholesome
spirit OF cooperation abroad in
Flint. which has been brought out
in the rapid-fre campaign for a
greater and better Flint now being
waged by the Board OF Commerce.
Flint has wonderful opportunity
for city building, and she is making
excellent use of IT,
We are doing our part to provide
a portion OF the city which will
make pleasant place TO live in and
are doing our work in such a man
uer that the community in taking
our property over after we are fin.
ished with IL will have a well-bal.
anced property to deal with. We
believe in Flint.

w. J. Moran Says His

Make Fortune
PREFERS TO STAND
BY ORIGINAL PRICE
BY w. J. MORAN,
President Of w. J. Moran a Co.,


President Of w. J. Moran a Co.,
Of Flint.
Flint real estate Is growing SO
last in value, that we are showing
poor business judgment in selling
lots in our subdivision, at the price
which we are now quoting. Our plat
Is located near the new additions OF
The Chevrolet plant and was plated
before the announcement of the new
additions to that plant was made.
We have had every reason to In
crease our prices, but have not done
so. You can not help but make a
handsome profit. Like the man who
passed up the chance to buy land
neyt to the Ford plant 10 years ago,
so will the same man feel who neg
lects the opportunity at present to
buy land in the vicinity of the new
Chevrolet additions. in Flint.
A new car line will soon be built
out through on; property, and this
will moan an immediate enhance
ment of real estate values in that
portion Of the city.
One OF the most important fea-
lures In the history of F1int's ro-
mantle development during the past
few years, Is the great volume OF
wages paid out every two weeks by
the automobile companies here. II
is estimated that never less than a
half million dollars Is SO distributed
in Flint every two weeks by the au-
tomobile companies alone. 1t Is
:aid that the total payroll of the
city every two weeks is close 10 one
million dollars.
Flint is growing so fast that it
looks like a good buy anywhere in
the CITY. but just because real es-
tate Is increasing in value, that is
10 reason why the buyer should be
reckless.
We need more homes in Flint. and
the Chamber CO Commerce will do
all it can to stimulate the erection
of homes not only this year but
next
There are rumors afioat now that
two of orr largest banks are about
to consolidate-this only shows
how the business of the city is leap
ing by bounds every day.

Disadvantages of Being President.
Providence Jo,1rna1I

President Wilson told his audience of newspaper men at washington Tuesday evening that the executive o11ce has It's serious drawbacks
 we Knew It, and they knew it. of course, before. But it is interesting to nave MT Wilson confess, in an offhand and evidently sincere way. how s,,,o,. ficial are some of the allurements of his post and how it's more substantia1 attractions are largely offset hv ;+s heavy responsibilities
 Nevertheless there is no deartb of candidates for the presidential honor If MT. Wilson were not so entrenched in the leadership of his party. we should see as strenuous a contest for the nomination at St. Louis as there was at Baltimore in 1912.- At Chica- go the strife for the republican nom- lnat1on promises to bring fourteen or fifteen names into competition on the first ballot three weeks hence MT. Wilson himself, though laying stress, in this address to the National Press club, on the disadvantages of the of- flee, is ready and eager to pass four years more in the White House.
 To the unreflecting mind it might seem that one of the principal satis-
 
 portunity it affords to come into con- tact with great numbers of ones fc1- low-citizens and to be the overshad- owing figure of the throng. But Mr. Wilson gives us a different point of view. He says, rather whimsically:
 'I am constantly reminded as I go about, as I do some times at the weekend of the personal inconven- fences of being president of inc TTnit- ed States If I want to know how many people live in a small town all I have to do is to go there and they at once line up to be counted. I might, in a census taking year, save the census takers great deal of trouble by ask ing them to accompany me and count the people on the spot''
 None of these incidental annoy- anceS and embarraSSm entS of the presidency, however, not even the ir- ritations for which persistent office seekers, ill-advised friends, and ob- stinate congressman, are responsible, compare, of course, with the tremend- ous burdens that the complexity of modern society, especially modern in ternational society, impose upon a president. It is no wonder that MT. Wilson says: 'If I did not go away at week-ends occasionally and throw off, as much as it is possible to throw off, this burden, l could not stand it.
 It is commonplace to say that the conflict beyond the Atlantic has placed on the American executive a stress and strain unequal1ed since the days of Lincoln. But it is a coln- monplace worth keeping in mind.
