Building as an Investment
With Times Coming Back Normally Many Wise Man Considering Building
Houses Bungalows Duplex Houses Apartments nvestmn-And
There No Better Than South Bend

Even the people who have moved to South
Bend within ten years realize that satisfactory
returns are being made by building owners on
property which they have built improved.
And those who have had buildings for longer
time than ten years have been even more for
tunate.
A look around this city will bring to light this
fact: Owners of apartments flats, single houses,
and bungalows have steady income with little
worry about their property.
But while we say good word for the building
Of residences and other buildings for rental pur-
poses, the big thing is to recommend the building
of residences which will be occupied by the
owners-and that Is a real investment which
brings the greatest returns.
The man who owns his home discovers that he
has made real investment. IF he was sensible
in his plans, his location and his designs he has
made good financial investment But he also
has an investment in happiness, security, peace
and comfort investments which cannot be valued
in dollars and cents.
South Bend news-times. (South Bend, Ind.) 1913-1938, 1922-05-08

The firms represented on this page are inter
ested in building work. They are pledged to give
the best service which can be given, and the best
values and prices. 1t is up to them to keep prices
down so that they can turn their goods or con
tinue their service. Business men nowadays
realize that it is to their own advantage as well as
to the advantage of the people in general to sell
their goods their service at as low price as it is
possible to sell it-for business must be kept go
ing and growing at every cost.
fyou have no home of your own, sit down this
evening with piece of paper and pencil and do
some figuring. Figure how much you are now
spending for rent and water and light and coal
and other things. Then figure how much your
rental bill will go toward paying for new house.
1t will surprise you
The quicker family gets started on paying for
a house, the quicker will that family settle down
to life of comfort and pleasure this will be
attested to by all those who are fortunate enough
to own their homes or to be paying regularly to-
ward their own homes.

DENVER, June 29.-A lurid tale of how she was kidnapped by members of dope peddling ring" taken to a squalid shack on the outskirts of Den yer, starved into submission and as- saulted was related to Juvenile Court officials here by a seventeen-year-ol Denver schoolgirl, whose name is be- ing withheld.
 The girl declared that the "dope ring" gang abducts and sells captive young girls giving them morphine and cocaine in an effort to "create" a new market for their illicit traffic and fre- quently force their captiyes onto the street in a life of shame. Juvenile Court and welfare officers have investigated the story and veri- fled many details, including the dis covery of the shack in which the girl claims to have been held prisoner for six weeks, as well as other "dens" III lSOldlSu SeCtlOilS Ol thS SlIy'

 Juvenile Court attaches found the shack in which the girl was held cap tive in a grove of trees just outside the city limits-a small, squat build ing, with heavily screened windows, and containing two rooms, barren of all furniture except a brass bed and bed clothing.

 The girl escaped from her captors by jumping through window of the squalid shack while her captors were all absent. She reported her terrible experience to Juvenile Court officials, who now have her in custody.
