LOW PRICES INDUCE
BUILDING HERE NOW
Lynden Needs New Homes Bad
ly; Construction Costs Expect
ed To Mount Soon

Many new homes are planned
already for Lynden this Spring
assuring a period of exceptional
building activity here. Lynden's s
appeal for more homes, as voiced
through the Build With The
Birds" suggestions, is being heed
ed.
With lumber, labor and mater
ials again on a stable basis fol-
lowing advanced costs in war
times, conditions are right for
building now. 1t is this lower
cost feature that is making q
strong appeal to the many who
have been putting off building
their own homes until costs came
down. 1t is predicted that lum-
ber prices will jump when heavy
building activity strikes the East
in the next two months so that
action now will mean a real saw
ing.
Lynden needs new homes, and
needs them badly. as many fam
lilies have been unable to locate
here because they could not find
suitable locations. II those who
have been putting off construc-
tion will start building now, the
situation will be relieved by the
addition of many of the older
homes to the list of rental prop
critics.

'LYNDEN-SEATTLE
ROAD PERFECT NOW
Fer First Time, Through Paved
Highway Offers Wonderful
Trip Now

The Lynden-to-Seattle automo-
bile road is now in perfect con-
dition for the first time in his
tory, and local motorists can look
forward to the journey with
pleasure.
With the exception of about
1h miles on the Waterfront
Road, the entire highway is now
paved, while the gravelled strip
is in perfect condition. without
a bump on its course. The state
maintains a large force of men
on the Waterfront Road, SO that
constant dragging and grooming
has brought it to the pink of
condition.
Aside from the convenience of
having the use of his own car
while in Seattle, the Lynden mot
orist actually saves time in max
ing the trip rather than in go
ing by train. Travelling at an
average of twenty-five miles an
hour, the journey can be negoti-
ated in a trifle over four hours
and a half, considerably less
than the train time, considering
the delays and extra time needed
to travel to and from homes at
both ends of the journey.
With all the cities in Skagit
and Snohomish Counties connect
ed by pavement now, it is poss-
ible for Lynden people to visit
their friends in all sections north
Of Olympia without hardly getting
off a hard-surfaced road, and
with none of the old-time jolts
and Inconvenience. AS a result.
travel by auto from Lynden South
is expected to pick up to a mark
ed degree now.
