As in INDUSTRIAL CITY GARDENS, “The Salaried Man’s Paradise,” where you may acquire not a
. city lot but a little country estate of one to twenty acres, or more, of fertile, well-drained land, on which
‘ we will build, and sell to you on terms like rent, a lovely frame or brick bungalow, with modern bath,
. running water, electric lights, telephone and street car facilities. On this property, you may not only
enjoy city conveniences but all country advantages, in that you may have a profusion of flowers, an
abundance of vegetables, fruits, poultry, a pony for your boy, your shooting dogs, etc., with the city
! only five minutes away.
Go out and see for yourself that it is not only a pleasant place to live, but a safe, sound and profitable
©lace in which to invest, as the three hundred odd happy, thrifty, prosperous residents in INDUSTRIAL
CITY GARDENS will testify.
Also, in SILK HOPE FARMS (shortly to be offere 1 to the public), you may acquire, on or off the
■ concrete, one to one hundred acres of as fine land as is to be found in the entire country; yet, only three . I
miles from the city limits of Savannah, on terms as low as $5.00 cash and $5.00 per tract per month,
with NO interest, NO taxes, and your life insured for the first three years. When you will have paid
in as much as S3OO, we will either build for you or lend you the money with which to build a lovely
! frame or brick bungalow, with city conveniences, where all the joys of country life and pleasures of
home ownership may be had, and where you may have the satisfaction of knowing that you can make a
good living at home on your own land should you ever quit or lose your job.
When you will have acquired and paid for such a lovely place, you may justly swell up with pride in
that you invested your savings and the money you were paying for rent in such a place instead of squan
dering it.

PAGEANT SKETCHES
BROOKLYN HISTOR
CONEY ISLAND, N. Y., June 6
(TP)—Plain Mr. and Mrs. Sweeney
brushed elbows with bigwigs from
Manhattan tonight as the big Brook
lyn Historical Pageant neared its
close. Surf Avenue was jammed to
the curbs today as the sparkling pro
cession marched and rode.
From beginning to end, the pageant
sketched the history of Brooklyn. It
began with Hendrik Hudson s landing
300 years ago and came right on down
to the present day. The two prize
oxen were there, all right. The pag
eant-makers had all kinds of trouble
finding the great beasts for the show.
At the last minute, they turned up a
New Jersey farmer with a span of
them. The massive animals shuffled
along today in the middle of the pro
cession, symbolizing a slower genera
tion of long ago.

•Brooklyn detectives today when they
demanded the surrender of his son.
The Parkers, senior and junior, are
both under indictment on charges of
kidnaping and maltreating Paul
Wendel. Wendel is the disbarred Tren
ton attorney who signed a spurious
Lindbergh kidnaping confession.
Said Parker heatedly. “My son
won't go to Brooklyn, and neither
will I. You've all being duped by a
clever crook!” Paul Wendel has filled
you with so much bunk it's coming

TEXAS EXPOSITION CUTS
TELEGRAM MARK
IN HALF
DALLAS. Texas, June 6 (TP)—The
record for speed in sending a telegram
around the world was cut in half to
day at the opening of the Texas cen
tennial exposition.
The message was: “Texas welcomes
the " world.” The Postal Telegraph
Company flashed the words clear
around the globe by wire and radio.
Two minutes after one operator
started the message on its race over
land and sea. another operator re
ceived it back in Dallas. The old rec
ord was four minutes.
Secretary’ of Commerce Roper
opened the $25,000,000 exposition in
place of President Roosevelt. The
president was unable to get away from
Washington. He promised, though,
that he will see the exposition later
and make one or two speeches. Of
ficials say that exposition visitors
have doubled the normal population
of Dallas. Advano? ticket sales were
more than 2.000.000.
The exposition offers everything
from the “Streets of Paris” for men,
to “Southern Gentlemen’’ escorts for
ladies who com? twithout boy friends.

On May 27, 1871, thousands of Parisians and hundreds of leaders in the Commune were massacred by
the army from Versailles, under Gen. Vinoy. French radicals make yearly pilgrimages to the scene of the

WRECKED PLANE
IS TOWED HOME
MITCHEL FIELD, L. 1., June 6*
(TP) —A repair crew from Mitchell
field tonight towed home the wreck
age of a SIOO,OOO airplane. The ship
crashed after two army flyers took
to their parachutes.
Expert® blamed the wreck on the
failure of one of the engines. The
machine began spinning at an alti
tude of 8,000 feet. Pilot Delaine Bail
ey found the plane entirely out of
control. He shouted to Sergeant P.
G. Smith—"We got to jump. Go on
over.” Smith went over the side at
7,000 feet. Bailey stayed with hisship
a while longer. It fell another 6,000
feet, then he jumped. Both flyers
wafted to earth without injury. The
plane caught fire when it struck the
ground.
The machine was known as the
B-10. It was one of a new fleet sent
to Mitchel field. Mechanics believe
they may be able to salvage some of
the parts.
The curb market was narrowly ir
regular. Oils made the best show
ing as a group with fractional gains.
Turnover was 66,000 shares.
