Davis, real estate salesman for the Baker- Grude Investment company, he gave a number of interesting facts relative to the growing tendency which is sweeping the country for ‘suburban tracts. Mr. Davis stated: “The back to the soil movement is continually becoming more pro- nounced on the western coast and in the eastern sections where thousands of people are flocking to the subur- ban districts and locating on the acreage tracts. This is due to sev- eral causes. One thing is that the continually advancing prices of prop- erty which is close in, make the in- terest a big item, while the hizh taxes make the more expensive home a luxury. It is not out of the ordinary for a property owner with only a middie class home to pay out $1,000 in a year on taxes, interest, upkeep and other incidental expenses. This money is gone, and the only chance to ever get a portion of it back is by the increased value of the property. “Had this amount been expended, on, say half an acre in the suburbs, the ‘owner could pay for the land and put up @ modest cottage. He would also have ha'f an acre for a garden plot, while his three lots would constantly grow in value. ‘There is absolutely no indication of a decrease in rentals in Casper. The ordinary rent on a modest home here for two years will pay for a tract in Mountain View and erect a home on it. “With the great activities which are planned for the Casper field this year, there will be a continued in- creasing demand for homes of all classes. The White Eagle Oil Co., having announced its intention to enter the field, will begin construc- tion on its refinery in Casper im- mediately. The Poison Spider field. ,which is directly tributary to Casper, is just beginning an active drilling campaign, and a number of wells will be brought in immediately on com- pletion of the six inch line now being laid from the field to Casper. Th North and South railiad also means a big stimutous toward Casper’s ad- vancement as a wholesale center. Considering these facts, which are only @ portion of the many plans for development, it is more than evident that the housing problem will con- tinue to become more* serious. The foresighted man is going to avail him- self of the opportunity to secure a place where he can have a garden, raise chickens, get away from high rent, high taxes, and big interest, and Jet his investment grow. —————.. o A oneman strike in a large paper mill near Edinburgh has been settled after keeping 500 workers out for four months and costing their union $50,- 000. A member of the union tore up his membership card and refused to rejoin. The mill-owners declined to discharge the man, hence the strike. The dispute was settled by compro- mise which called for the transfer of the recalcitrant workman to an- other mill. After the deluge which swept Te: fie ep: ean Venice.

S. RECORD; SYMPATHY FLOURISHES Every hour, somewhere in the Un- ited States, a man’s life is taken. During .the past ten years, 85,000 murders were committed, and in 1921 alone, more than 9,500 lives were taken. In other words, one out of every 12,000 Americans is murdered every year. In Europe, this figure is one out of every 634,000. Gilbert Cosulich, in July Good Housekeeping tells some startling facts about this appaling situation. He says. ‘When a prospective assassin in America, is about to pull the trigger, he knows that he will have three powerful friends if he commits the deed. These three friends are sentimentality, the new psychology and technicality. So he pulls the trigger and takes his chance. At that moment he becomes an enemy to society. “Yet the American commonwealth frequently forgets that _a murderer is its foe. ers occasional:y h. Indeed, some of {ts mem- sympathize with im. As a result of a citizen's mis- plated sympathy with the assassin, the latter may be protected not only from punishment, but even from ar- rest.” Sir Basil Thompson, former chief of Scotland Yards, commenting on the Good Housekeeping article, says: “Mr. Cosulich seems to have missed one point. The number of police em- Ployed in America is far smaller in relation to population than is con- sidered necessary in European coun- tries. This has an adverse effect upon the proportion of arrests for serious crimes. “The ordinary practice in some Am- erican cities seems to be that when the newspapers lose interest in a case, the police allow ‘t to drop.

That sounds strange, but it is literally true that a beautiful, substantial, firesafe brick house actually costs less money than a painted house of non-permanent construction. If you bought a house like you buy a hat—with spot cash—the first price would count. But 99 out of every 100 houses are paid for in in- stallments during a period of from 9 to 14 years. You take your pencil and paper and prove to your- self that it is easier to pay for a brick house than for a painted house. Suppose A buys a painted house for $6000, B buys a brick house for $6500. Each has $75 a month to carry payments on the house, taxes, insurance, and the necessary upkeep. Out of A’s $75 a month must be retained enough to repaint his house every two or three years at a cost of $250 or more. B paints the wood trim of his house every six years at a cost of not more than $50. A pays more insurance than B because his house is the burnable kind. Figure it all out and you will find that B has his $6500 brick house paid for arly a year ahead of A. The same economies t give B this advan- tage go on forever—the brick house actually costs less to buy and continues to save the owner money. Besides it is worth much more should you ever want to sell it or borrow money on it. So the cost price really doesn’t count, does it? You are interested in getting the best house, es- pecially when it is easiest to pay for. | | IT IS EASY TO OWN A BRICK HOME! ||| Casper Brick & Tile Co, C. E.
