Level Lots

Almost 100 wooded lots covered with stately
forest trees that have been growing lifetime.
In the high-class residence district on the north
side, where values are increasing by leaps and
bounds
1t is hardly necessary to call attention to the
fact that twenty-five years ago there was little
north of 10th street except corn fields while now
many of the finest residences are between 10th and
Goth streets, and several are out even to i@tn
street. and that many lots which ten or fifteen
years ago could be bought for from $500 to $1,000
are now worth from So, 500 to $4,000
AS to the large profits in store for purchasers of
north side real estate nothing more need be said
Those who are wise buy little in advance of the
big improvements
Ten, fifteen and twenty-five years ago there
were Knockers just as there today, but the
knockers have only regrets while those who took
advantage of their opportunities and bought made
the big profits, just as you do today.

VIOLINISTE BELIEVES
IN AMERICAN TRAINING

A few years ago it was considered
"the thing" for our young people to
go to Europe to study music they were
supposed to find a musical atmos-
phere" abroad, not to be found else
where.
Estelle Gray was one of the few
who had the courage of her convic--
tions and who stayed in America for
all her art.
When she was already considered a
successful public artist, then she went
to Europe, Jut as polished American
product, not as student.
What was the result? The press of
France, England, Germany, Austria,
Switzerland and Italy were loud IN
their praise of the Charm and beauty
of the playing of the young American
violiniste, Estelle Gray"
Europe does not know, never did,
how to train our young properly.
American art centers have more to
offer than Europe ever had.
When Estelle Gray retudned to her
native land, after her triumphant
European tour, the New York Tribune
and Herald printed long interviews
with her, and the opinions of this lit
tie violiniste, who won the hearts Of
Europe, have been widely quoted and
have kept many of our girls in Amer
lea for their artistic polish.

MILLER BANK
ROBBED OF BONDS
Bandits Dig Through Vault, But
Overlook Large AmOunt-SecOnd
Time Bank Robbed.

Miller, Mo-, March 9.-The bank OF
Miller at Miller, Mo-, was robbed last
night of $3.50 in liberty bonds, the
second time within five months. Two
shotguns were also taken by the ban
dts, but large sum of money, said
to total several thousand dollars,
which was in safe, was not molested.
Discovery of the robbery was maze
at 8 o'clock this morning when the
bank opened for business.
The robbers gained entrance to the
bank through window and then dug
their way through thick brick wall
into the vault.
The robbery five months ago was
completed in the same manner as
last night, the bandits digging their
way through the vault wall and es-
Gaping with 81, 200 to 81, 400 in liberty
bonds.
Authorities and bank officials were
led to belief that the same bandits
performed both robberies, because OF
the similarity of the deeds.
No trace has been found of the
bandits. 1t is believed they escaped
in a motorcar.
Telephone wires out of Miller are
down, giving rise to the belief that
the robbers cut them before robbing
the bank.
