The opportunity of a lifetime for you to put this plan into operation is now offered to you in LYON VILLAGE Ilots. We intend to spend from $260,000 to $500,000 in improving this latest subdivision develop- ment of ours—streets, sidewalks, sewers, etc. Our hln!dnx affiliations are ready to advance us any sum :&N require. BUT WE HAVE ANOTHER METHOD IN T HE wealthy men of the world have told you repeat- Instead of securing the sum necessary to carry forward our improvements from our banks, we have evolved a plan whereby purchasers of LYON VILLAGE lots may get behind this work instead—and at the same time be :fintn:utllnz toward the steady enhancement of the lots €y buy Don’t delay! Consider this: 3 lots of equal price. Pay. cash for 2 —receive 3. Come out NOW,: pick out your lot—and get it for two-thirds its actual valae. Briefly, to purchasers of LYON VILLAGE lots who are willing to pay all cash, we are going to reduce the price of the land 33 1.3 per cent—and place every cent of that money right back in improvements on the property! LYON VILLAGE lots are valued at 30c per square foot now. By paying cash you get one- third off; you pay only 20c per square foot. And YOUR MONEY WILL GO RIGHT BACK INTO THE WORK OF ENHANCING YOUR GROUND’S VALUE. It will pay you to borrow enmough from your bank to enable you to purchase for cash—the rate of interest you pay on the loan will be far less than the difference in the purchasing power of your money. Approximately one-half of the sum required has been realized and improvements have been under way for sev- eral weeks past. These improvements will be completed without delay, regardless of further sales. "LyoN AND FIiTCH OFFICE AT WILSON BOULEVARD AND OAK ST. PHONE CLARENDON 650
