Victory Way replaces the old Bothell serpentine highway with its slippery surface and treacherous curves. Victory Way, a broad, even-surfaced, modern concrete boulevard, wider than any other highway we now possess, leads from the end of University Bridge straightway be- yond the city limits, continuing with scarce a curve or grade to beautiful Inglewood Park. Inside the city limits the new highway is known as Tenth Avenue Northeast. Outside the city it is Victory Way. (To our way of thinking it ought to be Victory Way all the way to the center of town.) Twenty to thirty minutes’ drive via private auto or the fine mod- ern auto bus brings you to Inglewood Park, the most charming spot on the Pacific Highway. Here have been set apart for close-in fomey estates the choicest acreage available to the man of modest neome. ; Inglewood Park is not subdivided into small lots that will crowd your home up close to your neighbor's line. Inglewood Park provides acreage—ground area sufficient for ex- tensive lawns and gardens. One acre, two, three or five acres, whatever size you desire. A chosen few who have the wisdom and good judgment to act quickly may have the pick of those specially desirable level sites fronting on the broad brick-paved Pacific Highway. A live trout stream that many anglers know winds its way through Inglewood Park to nearby Lake Washington. If you have dreamed of a home midst giant fir and cedar you will find tracts at Inglewood Park with beautiful groves of stately trees. Inglewood Park and the Inglewood Golf and Country Club on opposite hillsides are close neighbors, Inglewood Park begins just where you turn into Seattle’s newest and most popular links. All traffic to and from Everett, Bellingham, Vancouver and other Ca- nadian points passes Inglewood Park. Your home here will front on the busiest thoroughfare in the Pacific Northwest. No lonesome days at Inglewood Park. : The trend of Seattle ts always northward. Ingle. wood Park in a few short years will be close-in, greatly enhanced in value by reason of Seattle's rapid growth, doubly desirable by reason of its charmed location. Modern auto busses, noiseless, rapid, regular, oper- ating under state franchise, run every 30 minutes during the busiest hours. Inglewood Park home acres are so beautifully situ- ated, so quickly and easily reached, the prices so low, terms so easy, that few hesitate to buy once they see this ideal spot. If interested we would like the privilege of show- ing Inglewood Park. A Puget Mill Company repre- sentative with private auto will gladly call at your home or place of business.
