TEXAS CITY STARTS BOOM Campaigns Didn’t Bring Right Kind of Folks -—This is a town that paid $3 killed the boom. $30,000 up to valuable experience and thinks the money well spent.

Uncle Sam’s latest down to business of living. | Six months before that event, however, it was among the boomiest spots on the American continent, all because an enterprising chamber of com- merce had gone out in the highways and byways and invited everybody and pear to come settle in Corpus. Was a §30,000 Venture The chamber of commerce last win- ter spent $30,000 on an advertising campaign to bring new residents to the city. About the ‘time the paid invitations got well underway, mes- began to pour in from “high powered and wide awake real estate agents,” and many of the agents soon followed their messages in per- son. Almost before the city knew what was happening, it. was in the midst of an effervescent real estate stim- ulation. The town was inundated with wildeyed boomers. Staid citizens who had ‘never before thought of the thing called real estate began to talk it and breathe it. The hotel ANGLEFO SPRAY TLL all insects at one time by using Tangle- foot Spray.

Then Built Up Solidly Soon the saner heads say that..it was mostly talk and paper trading and what they had wanted for $30,- 000 was building and permanent resi- dents. So they turned in to head off the boom. The chamber of commerce began sending teleerams and letters to head off some of the prospective citizens. ‘Ther was no boom in Corpus; Corpus didn’t want a boom and didn’t in- tnd to have one. The boom was stopped. It had lasted about two months und a half, and in that time Ralph Bradford, secretary of the chamber of commerce, estimated that $8,000,- 000 worth of property was exchanged. The town got down to actual build- ing. Two hundred houses and busi- Iness buildings have been under con- j struction the past summer, and in one month building permits reached $320,000, which was ‘considered good for a town of 25,000. The popula- Ition increased 5,000 in 10 months. ‘WOMEN’S GOLF CHAMP NOT ONE TO PRACTICE Mrs. G.
