stance at an advance ot over 20 per cent What Mr McCreery original outlay for this property was Is not stated but the region when he Invested there was but a sandhill waste and In the light of latter day developments the Investment seems like an inspiration However this Is but one Instance of his great judgment In real estate purchases for In every instance the growth ot the city has followed the lines of his prognostication He la selling now because It has been represented to him that the vacant blocks In that neigh bo hood seriously retard the growth of the region The block has been
