at the end of the Stephenson avenue car line fronting on the Whittier boulevard road has just been acquired by the lanss Investment Company and is now under subdivision for home sites In reality these are to be little farm homes a survey platting them into one-third acres and up The property just obtained by the subdividers is part of the famous old Rancho de Laguna and this particular residence section will be known as Belvedere Gardens Five-cent car line serves this section to the end of the Stephenson car line The property Is within walking distance beyond and its development marks an eastward trend of the city of Los Angeles Previously this had been a farming section The property has been known especially because of the fact that ranches developed their own natural gas for fuel purposes Oil wells are being sunk just to the south at the present time May-four acres are comprised in the first of this property to be pot on the home-site list Street work and the piping of water is now under way and formal announcement of the opening of the tract is to be made within a short time 4 Rainbow Crest has proved to be a popular subdivision from the start Only a very small percentage of the crowd was able to receive the personal attention of the sales force of Carlin Smith on the opening day and many selected their own lots Fully 250 persons took advantage of this opportunity to inspect this "tract beautiful" and while the sales surpassed the expectations of everyone except Mr Smith it Is only a criterion et what Is to come when the message Is delivered to the "buyers of homesites" that desire terraced homesites out of the fog district and close to schools stores and other conveniences Funeral arrangements were being made today for Mrs Hannah Shanks pioneer Los Angeles woman who died yesterday at the home of her son James Shanks 417 West Twenty-second street There were six generations of the Shanks family living in Los Angeles unIl the death of Mrs Shanks She died at the age of 96 She was born in Annapolis Nova Scotia April 5 1825 and came to Los Angeles 34 years ago with her husband the late Shanks The range of ages of the Shanks family was from nearly 100 to 4 Besides her son Mrs Shanks leaves two daughters Mrs Eliza Ball and Mrs Emily Stewart and descendants of her children All of this great commercial ac itIvity has given Los Angeles a tresinendous impetus in industrial man4ufactitring and shipping develop-anent' and it has had an immeasuratie Influence on basic real estate in the city For many months after the signing of the armistice few 'ipeople in Los Angeles really had a ctear comprehension of the purpose I)t the new order of civic They' heard a great deal about the harbor and the developznent and expansion of shipping but it seemed to them to be something "that was many years away SETTER UNDERSTANDING Gradually that feeling has changed in a better nd a bigger understanding of the aims and purposes of the chamber of commerce in its advocacy of foreign trade through the port of Los Angeles and its tremendous activity to bring overseas commerce to a reality Then with the ending of war in Mexico and the beginning of a new government that apparently meant a stabilizing of industry Los Angeles business men were the first to take advantage of the opportunity to investigate things first hand in the sister republic PLEASED WITH OUTLOOK Sylvester Weaver the new president of the chamber of commerce Maynard Niene the retiring president and the wheel horses on the board of directors express themselves aa more than pleased with the outlook for an increased and constantly increasing trade with Mexk-o They have returned from their last trip more enthusiastic than ever and all iporotap

by the bureau of public service and the Installation et water mains in the streets is included in the prices asked LARGE LOTS In keeping with his policy "the most for the least" Mr Smith certainly has outdone himself for 'lots of a similar character adjoining are priced at two and thtee times what he Is asking "Just consider" says Carlin Smith "where you can purchase a lot 50x150 with oiled roadway and water included for 250 to $550 on easy payments It can't be done that's all except at Rainbow Crest And when one realizes that this property Is only 15 minutes (three miles) from the center of our city it seems almost a miracle Human beings generally get all they here most for the least" in Rainbow Crest the tract beautiful means all that It implies Thirty-four lots were sold on opening day Prcspective purchasers can reach Rainbow Crest by the South Pasadena red car on Main street or the Garvanza yellow car on Spring street alighting at Avenue Forty-five and following the orangecolcred signs Apartment Lease and Furniture 27000 for a 26000 net annual income 25500 cash handles this 34 rooms 14 singles 2 doubles good location low rents always fill 44-year lease at 2185 per month DR 964 PURE AIR ELSINORE Feb 23---Residents of South Elsinore where a growth of population has been recorded by reason of the advent of new farmers and fruit growers on the lands of the South Elsinore Development Company have been accorded a new school district by the supervisors of Riverside county This will be known as the Sodco district and will be formed partly from the Elsinore and partly from the Wildamar districts Excellent school facilities have been accorded children of this district by means of free motor bus service but new farmers have come in to such a number that a separate school district has been deemed warranted County Superintendent Landis suggested the redistricting Five hundred acres of the Sodeo district are now under planting with new fields being added almost daily In addition to farmers from Orange ESHLEMAN REALTY co Los Angeles and other counties who are joining the new lake shore colony many tourists are seeking farm investments and country home sites Elsinore canneries are already in the market for fruit contracts with the assertion that tree products here are earlier and better A great demand has arisen for literature being disseminated by the Elsinore valley chamber of commerce This in a call in particular for an illustrated pamphlet called "Fulfillment" The peacefulness the crniet and beauty of Rainbow Crest lends an added enchantment You have often wanted to get away from the noise the hustle and bustle away out in the country where the air is pure the fields green and nature instils the strength to carry on: well that's Just what you get at Rainbow Crest only three miles from the center of our fair city and served by both red and yellow cars" says Mr Smith In keeping with the nature of this and they predict great things for Los Angeles in a cotnmercial way with Mettiean merchants and industrial institutions And this means newer and greater activity in 1e Angeles real estate "When you thvitk of Real Estate think of Eshleman"
