round clear pieces with a biscuit cut

ADVISES OWNERS
TO STAND AS UNIT

C. c. King. who lives at South
Grant avenue. in the Union Gar
dens section, and who is treasurer of
the Wagamon Realty Corporation,
today issued a statement to Union
Gardens home owners and tenants
in which he says:
I'm reply to the many inquiries
regarding the proposed oil station at
the Northwest Corner of Chestnut
and Union streets, wish to state
that every house and lot, as well,
was sold with certain restrictions.
These restrictions would certainly
prohibit anything being erected on
these lots except dwellings similar
to those aready erected. You could
not have purchased your home in
the Gardens without accepting these
restrictions, and the lots could not
be purchased without accepting
them, because they were originally
made by the United States Ship
ping Board. which is a part of the
United State Government. We
would naturally believe the word
restriction in this case. would mean
law and no man has a right to
issue a permit that would break 1t.
We will assure you all of our every
effort to keep these restrictions from
being broken. Gardens homes have
not yet reached their value, and in
our estimation they win not reach
their. full value for sometime, and
If these restrictions are not broken
the corners, ends and semi-detached
houses will sell in the next year or
two for from $500 to $1,000, and
the inside houses accordingly; but
