ACTUAL PHOTO OF PUGET SOUND NAVY YARD—SHOPS, WHARVES, ETC. e ' When the war was well under way we decided that the American people would demand a vast increase in their first line of defense—viz., the United States navy. We firmly believed that Congress would appropriate many millions to pay for the development of the navy yards of this country. We knew that the Puget Sound Navy Yard had received the highest recommendations from the secretary of the navy and all the great naval experts of this nation. Hence, we purchased practically every available parcel of acreage suitable for platting within five to fifteen minutes’ walk of the gates. Our Judgment Has Proven Correct It Is Right in Town, Not Out in the Woods The House of Representatives at Washington Friday appropriated Two It lies within five minutes’ walk of the Navy Yard gate and is the closest in Hundred and Seventy Million Dollars for the building next year of five battle addition that has been platted or CAN BE PLATTED. cruisers, four scout cruisers, ten destroyers, fifty submarines and 130 aeroplanes, in ini Cas Stans i ak provided for a government armor plate plant, authorized an increase of nearly ee i en and: 200 Lots at $100 to $250 Per Lot Terms 5 Per Cent Cash, Balance Over Four Years. The $100 lots are NOT GOOD LOTS AND WE DO NOT ADVISE THEIR PURCHASE WITHOUT INSPECTION. EVERY LOT PRICED AT $150 or more is a good lot. Some of them lie as level as a floor; the balance lie on a gentle slope to the east, with a fine view. The Union High School, owned jointly by Charleston and Bremerton, is within four minutes’ walk. About Seven Million Dollars for the enlargement of the navy yards and equipping same for battleship con- struction. This Seven Million Dollars is turned over to Secretary Daniels, who testified before the House naval committee that “Puget Sound Navy Yard should be equip- ped” and said many flattering things about our yard. The Puget Sound Navy Yard Now Employs 1,500 or More Men Around the Navy Yard is clustered a population of about 7,500—five resi- dents to one actual worker in the yard. We are convinced that the number of Navy Yard workers will be doubled within a short time. This means that instead of a population of 7,500 the twin towns, Bremerton and Charleston, will soon have a population of over 15,000. We desire at this time to thank the folks who have stayed by our firm during Bremerton is situate at the east gate. the hard times. We have been able in all instances to save them from loss and in many cases to show them a nice profit. The tide has now turned for us and them. | | | | We want you to invest in this First Addition.
