Every lot is to be sold to the highest bidders The terms will be extremely easy. Hopewell is eight and one-half miles from the city of Petersburg, Va., on the Norfolk and Western Railway. One year ago it was a village of 3Q0 inhabitants; today Hopewell boasts of a popu lation of 30,000 to 35,000. The Dupont Powder Company has spent millions of dollars in the construction of their mammoth plant which is located there, and thousands of men are employed in this plant. The Dupont pay-roll is increasing every day; the employes are building their homes; substantial business houses are being constructed. In every way Hopewell is taking on the appearance of a city. The Powder Plant is constructed of concrete and steel the improvement is permanent; therefore, an investment in Hopewell real estate offers a more flattering return, together with safety to the investor, than any proposition you can find. On June 14, 1915, we opened the famous Battleground Addition which adjoins Battleground Annex since that date the lots have doubled and tripled in value; on that date there was not a house on Battleground Addition today there are between 250 and 300 houses on it MEET US ON THE BATTLEGROUND ANNEX ADDITION, HOPEWELL, MONDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 25.
