SALE OF HOME
 SITES IN CITY
 ARE EXPECTED

Real estate in Juneau as an m- yestment, promises to receive unus- ual attention from those having funds to place during the spring and sum mer. according to the weekly state. ment issued today by Larsen & Lo- gan. The season about to open is likely to witness the greatest sale of home sites of recent years. Business conditions in the Territory of Alaska are in excellent condition and the business men are @ unit in predicting Q record breaking year.
 There must be reai cause for such optimism and there Is. Canneries, mines and business houses In this section have never been so busy. The war; while draining the feverishly fighting nations Of Europe, is bring ing golden harvest to America and particularly to Alaska, where mining and fishery activities have long been an important element in success.
 Many Money Schemes.
 Accompanying this era of Pros perity have come many schemes for the use the money which has flowed, and is flowing. into the United States. Stocks are skyrocketing particularly those dependent upon war orders. All kinds of industrial enterprises are being promoted on other peoples money
 In this time of unusual prosperity isn't 1t wise to think of investing in something which is not subject to fluctuations, which is not dependent upon personal management, or the other fellow? Real estate, as an in- vestment, whether 1t be lot for a home site, a dwelling or business block-bringing sure and constant revenues-never offered 30 many et- fractions. There is just such land in Juneau and when it is divided or sold 1t offers Q handsome profit, giv- ing at the same time Q maximum of safety to the investor.
 When War Ends.
 When the war ends there promises to be a period of readiustment just such as there was at its inception. War stocks may so tumbling. Real estate is bound to stand secure and solid. owing to the conservative val ues which have long been estrblish- ed In this community.
 Tendency ls Upwards.
 The upward tendency is already beinh noted and wise investorts are busy acquiring good pieces of real estate In anticipation Of the great activity which seems apparent. Those who are anticipating acquiring home should make haste. Lot prices are bound to increase and building materials will steadily rise. Follow Ing the brief period of readiustment, business activities will be resumed and this territory Is likely to see the greatest era of prosperity 1t has ever known.
 There are many sales about ready to be consummated in Juneau. Both residential and business areas are at- tracting much attention here as well as from outside capital.

PIONEERS CELEBRATE
GOLDEN WEDDING
MIR. and Mrs. Il. Il. Taylor Passed
Fifty-Year Mark New Years Day
Were Greeted by Many
Friends ut Windus Home

In honor of the fiftieth wedding
anniversary of Mr.. and Mrs. B. f
| Taylor, many friends of the pioneer
couple gathered at the home of Mr.
and Mrs. Alfred Windus last Satur-
day, extending heartiest congratula-
lions and well wishes to the blush
ing bride and smiling groom of so
years ago. The happy affair was a
complete surprise to the half century
companions, and after they had been
warmly greeted by their many
friends the verdict of both was that
the day had been the happiest of
their lives.
Due to illness in the family Mr..
and Mrs. Taylor had made no ar
rangements for the celebration of
their golden wedding day, but their
friends were not to let the day pass
unnoticed. Under pretense that a
snapshot was to be taken, the couple
was enticed to the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. A. Windus, where they found,
instead of an amateur photographer,
a hugh table laden with all the good
things that could be desired. In the
center was mammoth wedding
cake, surrounded with SO burning
candles, each marking a mile stone
in the welded life of the guests of
honor. The members of the two
families sat down to the dinner, and
the bride of so years ago again had
the honor of cutting the wedding
cake.
AS soon as the table had been
cleared of it's load of goodies the
guests began to arrive, and all after
noon there was procession of them,
each bringing his message of con-
graduation and we'll wishes. Includ-
ed among those who paid their re-
spects to the esteemed couple were
many who for half a life time or
longer have counted the honored pio-
neers among their closest friends
and not few "reminiscences of early
days were unfolded during the after
noon. The members of Whitman
Post, No. SO, G. A. r., of which Mr..
Taylor is an active member, and
Whitman Relief Corps No. 40, with
which Mrs. Taylor is associated
were among those to extend con-
gratulations. Many beautiful gifts
were received by the couple.
