One Thousand
Dollars for
Your Opinion

THE METROPOLITAN LIE II IN
SURANCE COMPANY has ap-
proved loans to us for more than
two million dollars to build homes
to relieve the housing situation.
THE FIRST THIRTY of these
houses are now ready for occu-
pancy in Norwood Gardens, nome
colony designed particularly 1or
THESE HOUSES REPRESENT the
experience gained by twenty years
of kome-building. -
THEY WERE DESIGNED by Wal
fer Hopkins of Warren & Wetmore.
THEY WE'RE BUILT by our own
organization, under our own super
vision.
WE BELIEVE they are the most
artistic, the best planned ana bhe
hest built moderate priced houses
in New York City.
WE KNOW that, by having prac-
tically unlimited money at our com
mand, enabling us to buy materials
in enormous quantities for cash. we
have squeezed out every dollar OF
nrofiteering and taken advantage
Of every drop in cost. =
WE Know that we could not sen
these houses at the price except
through the advantages of quantity
bTvino for cash and Standardization
of construction.
WE HAVE BUILT in the last year
more than hundred houses, ana
have sold them nearly as rapidly as
cononIeted: and we know that we
can sell these houses to the genera
public.
We vi ! WANT TO PICK OUR BUY
ERS.
WE WANT to sell these houses to
the right kind of people.
WE WANT to establish a commu-
nitv that will give an added value TO
each of these houses, and an adoeu
value to each Of the houses built
hereafter.
THEREFORE
WE ARE NOT going to sell these
houses to anyone, SIMPLY pecause
they have the money.
WE ARE NOT going to sell tnese
houses unless the buyer measures
m to the standard we have set 1or
the colony.
WE BELIEVE that these houses
will appeal particularly to profes-
sional people. .e.,,
WE BELIEVE that the beautiful
gardens and artistic exterlors VIII
be particularly appreciated by ar
chitects, lawyers, doctors, teacners,
writer's. and the best element IN the
theatrical profession.
WE BELIEVE that the eight rooms,
with two private baths, the living
room 19x20 feet and the two-car
garage will give them home sucn
AZ they lave dreamed Of.
CONSEQUENTLY,
WE HAVE DECIDED to pay One
Thousand Dollars to the protes-
sional people of New York City,
sinnlv to come and see these
houses. thereby enabling us to pick
our buyers.
YOU NEED NOT BUY.
YOU NEED HAVE NO INTEN-
TION of buying.
SIMPLY COME and see the houses
and send us your opinion of them.

the houses and grounds submitted

FOR THE NEXT TWENTY best
descriptions submitted, we will pay
Twenty Dollars each, making total

you will tell some Of your friends
who may buy.
