Wake Up and Buy Some Lots In Floral Heights
Can’t you see that delay means a loss to you. Don't you know that lots in Floral heights will soon
be higher? Why not? They are certainly the cheapest and best located lots in and about Wichita
Falls. They have the highest elevation, the purest atmosphere, the most picturesque view. They have
the city water, graded streets, five cent car fare and, in fact, will soon have every modern convenience
out to the bend of the car line. Wide concrete sidewalks are now being put down and several nice
residences are under construction.
This is the only way the town can grow and the only way we will have street car service for several
years. The Floral Heights addition is not a real estate man’s proposition, but is an addition backed by
over fifty of the leading citizens of Wichita County, who have the interest of Wichita Falls at heart and
who are determined to make Floral Heights the swellest residence section of the city. Floral Heights
is spending more money to boost Wichita Falls than all the concerns in the city put together, with the
exception of the Chamber of Commerce ----------------
Any agent in the city will be glad to give you prices and assist you in selecting your lots. - Make .
your purchase today before the good lots are all sold. Cars leave the corner of 8th St. and Indiana
Avenue every ten minutes for Floral Heights. Lots are sold on terms of one-third cash, balance in one
and two years, 8 per cent interest.
If you have friends and acquaintances who would like to know more about Wichita Falls, call at
our office, 617 8th Street, for nice literature to mail them.

You’d be surprised if we’d tell you the number of men in
this city who come to us, quite worried because of the fear
that they can not obtain a suit of exceptional attractiveness,
and one not having that flippant ‘air” which characterizes
so many makes of clothes. We quiet their fear* in a moment
and do it very easily, too. In our long experience we have
found that freakishness is not style, nor are the clamorous
patterns. Acting upon our real knowledge of a gentleman’s
need* we are always prepared to exhibit rare styles and fasci-
nating patterns; BUT NOT boisterous clothes. The Sea-
bright Sack, made by Alfred Benjamin & Co., in New York,
is a remarkable style, which is so “up-to-the-minute’’ that it.
fairly sparkles. The fabrics are soft and rich; the tailoring
is of the kind which only expert workers can give. It is a
clean, good, "Alade in New York” style which men of taste
desire. *
