Look Ahead a Few Years and imagine the value of a homesite on Lake Michigan--within easy distance of the city and accessible to all the many advantages of the North Shore. Deere Park is the 'last stand" of lake locations of equal desirability. Its beauties are beyond words, its values beyond estimate. Private beach--private park--abund- ant foliage--winding streets--all improvements in and paid for--many of the best people already occupying homes here, or building. A few of the choice lots--some as low as $120 per front foot--are still left. Liberal terms.

Highest honors went to DesPlaines, which netted a gain of 604 percent in the August to August comparisons, according to the building survey de- partment of S. W. Straus and company, who compiled the figures. DesPlaines captured honors in the comparisons with July this year. Its gain was 1080 percent After a lapse in honor taking our neighbors to the south, Gary and Ham- mond, came through with substantial increases. Gary made an August gain of 54 percent and Hammond showed a 24 percent gain. Glencoe took third honors, with 140 percent gain, while Winnetka placed fourth with an increase of 133 percent. Second place honors went to the south- ern tier of suburbs, with Harvey hold- ing and increase over August of last year of 153 percent. Wilmette's Au- gust total was given as $144,890, with no record for the preceding year. In the traditional race for supremacy between Oak Park and Evanston, Oak Park nosed out an honor place with a 4 percent gain for the month. Evans- ton was forced to stand a building con- struction loss of 53 percent, although as against July this year Evanston had an increase of 24 percent.
