M. Brinker, president of the Oregon & Washington Development Company, “to note the intense public interest and enthusiasm that has been aroused through the announcement of the big ocean resort to be built at SEAHURST, on Cohasset Beach. | There’s a strong demand for such a resort in this state. “Our office has been literally flooded with inquir- ies regarding this project since it was announced in The Star last Thursday. “People who have long cherished a desire to own summer homesites on the real ocean beach are flock- ing to the office with requests that lots be reserved | for them. Many others are sending in reservations by telephone and by mail from distant points. ‘And no wonder—when one realizes how strik- lingly-low the prices are of this first SEAHURST division. Twenty-five to a hundred dollars a lot, on easy terms, is a great drawing card. And we meant that it should be! At the present rate, the lots in this first division will soon be sold—and no more lots can be had at such low prices. Therefore, quick action is necessary!” A Prominent Seattle Attomey Writes nowledae TOU ‘ TEL. hl Ether asin Cele SEAHURST—the ocean resort—is not being cre- ated by the company for the profits that might come ; from the sale of these first lots—for all such money n er determination as the hardest-hearted mer could poral bly be.

George |W. Muench fs head of the depart ment ' will fall far short of the cost of creating it, but for the purpose of developing it as a great ocean resort that will attract thousands of tourists every season to its hotels, pleasure piers and pavilions. The manner in which this project has started off is assurance of its establishment on a scale of such magnitude as befits the State of Washington, and »|the finest beach on the Pacific coast. The people of Washington will build this resort, and will profit by it. The first investors in Seahurst property will reap the handsome returns that are bound to come through the big advance in values when the various projects of the gay amusement city are started, and it begins to draw patronage from all sections of the country. WHAT PLANS PROVIDE FOR Plans for SEAHURST provide for a large hotel, club and bath house, pleasure pier, dancing pavilion and casino, and a large settlement of summer homes and camps along this magnificent ocean frontage, de- clared by the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway to be “‘the finest, widest, hardest beach on the Pacific SEAHURST’S completed hotel will be a modern, up-to-date structure of 300 rooms. It will be built on the unit system, the first unit of which will contain Plans for the hotel are now being drawn and will shortly be ready for public inspection. The pleasure pier will be a modern structure, . extending out over the ocean a distance of 600 feet from the beach. At the end of this pier will be the dancing pavilion and casing. Along the beach will be a board walk and a 100- foot driveway for three miles along the entire front of the propefty, and connecting with the splendid automobile highway that leads to Tacoma, Seattle, Everett and other cities. Toward the south end of SEAHURST, adjoining |the government lighthouse reservation, will be laid out a fine 18-hole golf course, and here a clubhouse for golfers will also be erected. | 75 rooms.

For a Limited Time the Oregon & Washington Development Company, Developers of ‘SEAHURST, Are Offering Fine, Cl od Level Lots tn Divis. as low as "$25.00 These Lots are situated only two to four blocks from the beach fon The company also offers a Special Selection of Ocean Front Lots at $100.00 Fronting right on the beach the 100-foot beach driveway Terms—10 per cent down and $5.00 or $10.00 per month. and Beautifully illustrated literature to this ocean beach may be had on feoposen Fier Wore. *STRAND. TENT CITY THIS JULY Division “A” of SEAHURST, that portion which is now on sale at the north end of the company’s holdings, will be the scene of the first development work this summer, when a modern tent city will be erected. Excursions will run to this tent city, both by auto- mobile and train—and it is planned to have it opened by the first of July, as the months of July and year on the beach. Every effort is being made by the company to make it possible for early purchasers to enjoy an { August are the most enjoyable ones of the whole outing on their own seaside property this summer— and it is assured that they will! SEAHURST’S beach is a wide, smooth slope of velvet sand—offering all the enjoyment of the ocean front with none of its terrors. So carefully protected ‘ is this portion of the coast that storms have no effect on it—and there is no undertow whatever. It is absolutely safe at all times. And the water is so warmed by the Japan current as to make surf bath- ing a rare delight. NO END OF ENJOYMENT What a place for the summer! What a place for ocean frolics—for sand-sun baths—for surf fishing and clam digging—for moonlight strolls—for bon- fires and camp suppers—for auto rides—and for a view of those inspiring sunsets and those breakers that make the grand old Pacific so alluring! ee More than $100,000 will be spent at SEAHURST | on projects that will give enjoyment to thousands — of persons annually. And SEAHURST— just as Seaside, Ore., has done —will bring big returns to the first investors in her property. Lots at Seaside, Ore., that you could have bought a few years ago for $50 and $75, are held today at from $500 to $2,000 a lot. Yet the beach at Seaside is not to be compared in any particular with that at SEAHURST. A cottage at Seaside, costing $400, rents for $200 a season. A five-room cottage at Ocean Park, near the beach, rents for from $100 to $200 a month during the season. Last season the Northern Pacific Railway sold six hundred thousand round-trip tickets from Portland to Seaside and return, These are only the merest hints as to the possibili- ties of a big resort in the State of Washington, and the assurance of big results to those who are for- tunate enough to secure property at the first prices. Prompt action is advised upon the pert of those desiring to learn of SEAHURST’S opportunities! in SEAHURST, pnotos and maps ana run information on excursions pplication to the Oregon & Washington Development Co., 401 Green Bidg., Fourth and Pike.
