There are already eight buildings in the first addition. There are five buildings in Glen Oak Acres proper, built some time ago; two others were constructed last fall and it is said a number of new homes are contemplat- ed there this summer. The improve- ments in Glen Oak Acres include gas, electricity, water, a septic-tank sewer system and hard roads. These are in all the several additions as well as in Glen Oak Acres proper.
