Real Estate Men Plan to Sell Entire Addition in a Day To sell out an entire addition of Omaha real estate in a single day would be a new experience in Oma- ha business activities, yet this is what Omaha real estate men are plan- ning on. They have an addition of nearl seveaty lots, which they hope to sefi out between sunup and sundown, on the day when they really throw their heart into the campaign and adver- se it. This addition is Waverly Park, just south of Fontenelle Park, between Forty-fifth street and Forty-eighth avenue, bounded on the south by Wirt street and on the north by Bed- ford avenue. It was bought some months ago by the National Realty associates, a corporation formed from the promi- nent real estate dealers of all the leading cities in the United States, who are investing over the countr; where choice opportunities are of- fered. Lots are either to grade or on slight terraces, cement sidewalks have been laid and water installed, and the en- tire addition has been seeded with bluegrass. There will be a sales day announced , in the uear future, right after the fall 1 festivities are over. The prices will | range from $550 to $825. Lots will be sold on terms of one-tenth cash and 1 per cent per month, with a discount of 10 per cent for all cash and 10 per cent to purchasers who will build the first ten houses. There will be suit- able building restrictions.

The middle west has furnished more leaders for the cause of Christianity than any other locality, Is the Christian religion of the United States centered in New York? No. That state is sagging with unassimilated immigrants World Heade' This Way. ‘During the years I have becn in the foreign field I have been told by men close in touch with the situation that it is a question of not more than one year when 375,000,000 people will be crowded out of Asia, 475,000,000 out of India and 275,000,000 out of Africa. There are but two logical places for them to go, North and South America. It will be but a few years until Omaha's 225000 will be increased to 1,000,000.

And that old desert is ‘some dry’ because I've crossed it and 1 know.
