"This is what win bring back

People always want to live

to the suburbs In the late 40s
will be coming back in the SOS
as their children grow UP and
they have less need for space.

cause they are tired Of travel

others will be returning because

AS Mr.. Solomon sees it. AIS
in the SOS will easily top its

as high as 9.8 per cent.
"And other stores across the
