The American Airlines in Chicago

was over Jarvis, Ontario, flying at

can almost qualify for the native
son class. At any rate he was
here early enough to become ae-
quainted in his young manhood
with Allen c. Mason and was a
great admirer OF Taoomas first
citizen OF the early days. And
that brings up the question of
who was Allen c. Mason.
Allen &. Mason WAS an ed
ncator, newspaper man,
author Of two works on edu-
cation-"One Thousand WAYS
of One Thousand Teachers"
and "Mason's Problems In
Arithmetic" textbook for
grade schools, and good citizen
generally.
He arrived in Tacoma with his
family in 1883, coming here from
San Francisco. After renting a
house and providing for immediate
necessities his immediate cash
capital was about 50. With nothing
else 10 do he went into the real
estate business as "curbstone"
operator. The first day he earned
a 81 commission for renting a
house. A couple of days later he
negotiated the sale OF several lots,
and at the end Of year his com
missions as a real estate operator
and fees as an attorney totaled
nearly $4,000. He became one
Of the leading builders OF Tacoma
and the state of Washington. His
operations extended to Southwest
Washington and the Yakima val
ley but he directed all his extern
sive operations from Tacoma.
He Was the first Tacoma
real estate operator TO see q
vision of the possibilities of
the North End "a residential
area. To him more than any
