ALMA'S GROWTH SEEN IN
SUBDIVISION BUILDING

To the ordinary traveller, who does
not pet outside of the business section
of the city, it may not seem that AL
ma is growing at a very great pace,
but to those who get around the city,
especially into other sections, the
startling growth is little short Of
amazing.
In every part Of the city such a
person finds innumerable houses beng
constructed, from small shacks TO the
large pretertious dwellings, Of the
well to do. who have picked out
charming home sites, with the eXpec-
Il; tions of beautifying them and max
for themselves "A beautiful residence
and grounds.
Such conditions can be found IN amy
one of the score to two dozen sub
divisions which have been opened up
in the city during the past two years.
Each is carrying on or is seeing car
RED on its quota of building which
is making for the greater city of AL
ma, which is to become, probably the
Metropolis Of Central Michigan.
One such spot is the beautiful and
attractive Udelle addition in the
northwestern part Of Alma. this last
sL4ing nothing but a piece of farm
land. through which wendell its way,

come in few short months. Udelle
addition. as it is known. located two
blocks north on Wright avenue, IS
now one of the fine resident sections
OF Alma, with a large number OF
homes. and with indications of still
greater number when spring comes
H. has become known as "a spot where
iine homes can be found.
These short months since Spring
have seen streets graded, sidewalks
Put in. sewer and water mains partly
laid, and the site otherwise improved
There is reason Of course for these
things. The heavy demand for homes
in Alma is reason for this growth
and the location Of the plant of the
Western Carburetor company, just a
cross the Ann Arbor railroad from
this addition. is the cause of the
growth coming in this spot with such
rapidity
