WOOD-Formerly Fisher Park Jr. Irving Par(c Just to the North, Westerwood to the South, Fisher Park to the East, and Beautiful Open Country to the West and withal, one of the Rare Beauty Spots Near Greensboro for Home Development! Thi new development was opened last spring and has already shown re markable strides in development of moderate priced homes even fur ther, strides in enhancing values. Fully a fourth of the people who bought sites there last spring have sold at an advance and most of the others havehad such an opportunity. But they realize the greater attraction of future possibilities. Now Noithwood holds the center of public interest again, because it has been decided to place the remaining 75 lots of the original development on the market and allow the public a final opportunity to buy at the price they want to pay and perhaps the most unusual terms ever arranged for the sale of this class of property. It is an event of deep interest to every man who wants a home or profitable investment. ihese 75 Lots AT AUCTION Tomorrow Afternoon At 2:30 O'CLCCK Anyone not yet acquainted with Northwood will do well to go out and look the situation over. Situated between Second and Third streets, just at t the top of the hill as you go west from North Elm, it commands one of the finest views in or near the city. Its future possibilities as a residential de velopment of the most desirable type can be appreciated only after a visit and a careful study of the surroundings. It is a matter of history to all of us vfiat Fisher Park has done. It is no rare instance for prices there today to be more per front foot than they were originally per lot; yet there were people who thought the: prices high when the development was first opened. We are confident that there are equally alluring promises of profit in Fisher Park, Jr. -Northwood. The Man Who Buys Tomorrow Will Profit by His Sagacity and Foresight He'll Bless the day he Thought Enough of His Judgment to Back It With Only a Little Money! W. R ROSS, SelMn A. M.
