Dollars, as follows,:---. _ V GENTLEMEN ' In 1914, when war broke out, conditions arose which disarranged financial and commercial enterprises. Build- ers, like other business men, ceased active operations, not knowing how the tide would turn. Very little building has been done in comparison to the demand since that time, ow- ing to the continual rise in materials and labor, which reade ed its peak in 1920. New materials have dropped about 30 per cent., enabling builders to go ahead. It is estimated at thetity Ball, Toronto, that there are approximately 10,000 houses short of the demand at the present time. 904 Royal Bank Building Dated at Toronto, this Make all cheques payable to R.

The company has purchased twenty acres of good building land on Eglinton Ave, adjoining the Canadian Kodak property, Mount Dennis. ':. Eglinton Ave. has already been widened to a depth of 100 feet and is destined, in the near future, to be what St. Clair and Danforth Avenues are now, and anyone who has watched these developments go on in a comparatively' short time, cannot help see the future of Eglinton Ave. as the next street through concession for a business street. It should take very little reasoning to see that most of this shortage is in the small workingmen’s houses, which has been entirely neglected in the limited Inilder's plan-- hence our opportunity. , To R.
