According to Government Estimates
IV as -made in Western Town Property d., ring the year 1909 —
Did you participate in these huge profits or did you "pigeon -hole" the propositions
submitted to you by your western friends' for future consideration? In short, are you
the man who made a profit ort the unfortunate one who had the chance but did not possess
sufficient judgment to recognize the opportunity or sufficient courage to close a deal ?
The man or woolen entitled to.sytirpathy is 'the. one who.says: "Five or ten years ago I
had The chance to buy this or that property at $100 or $500; and now it is worth .$10,000."
The average person sneers at the person who makes, such a. statement and says:. "I would
.have bought and made that money." Are you going to say five 'years from now that
you had a chance to buy a lot at Poe, Alta.,•at from $50 -to $100 each, or are you going, to
be the man who will have from 411,000 to $10,000 in cash as a result of having bought
property in this town in this year of grace, 1911 ?
POE A COMING COMMERCIAL.' CENTRE
Poe is located on the main line of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway between Ed-
monton and Saskatoon. It is located inone of the finest fzrmingdistricts in Western Canada.
The surrounding country is settled by a progressive type of farmers.and consequently
C will'become the market centre for Northern Alberta. Poe district possesses rich coal
mines, is close to rivers and lakes and large forests, are easily accessible from this point.
These natural resources insure for the residents of the town, first, low cost of living,
and second, great commercial activity, two essentials in the upbuilding of a large town,
thus creating valuable real estate.
POE AS A MANUFACTURING CENTRE
This townsite and contiguous territory has the' requirements outlined by large
manufacturing concerns for the location of large factories or large enterprises of any kind
• employing large numbers of people. ' The rivers and lakes furnish water, the coal fields
and forests furnish fuel and cheap building material, the fine farming lands furnish farm
products, enabling the residents to live at a low cost.
The town is located on the main line of a transcontinental railway, assuring the
aas necessary transportation facilities. These combined conditions will furnish cheap labor,
one of the most important features of a manufacturing centre.
Poe townsite was recently placed on the market and already over 200 Iots have been
sold, and many of these lots have already changed hands at a substantial increase in price.
Most of these lots were purchased by representative business men throughout Canada,
who are now profiting by their foresight.
The townsite is high and dry and very suitable for building purposes.
OPPORTUNITY
is useless unless you possess the courage to act. You might possess great wisdom, you
might read a good deal or travel much and thus see all kinds of opportunities to make
money, bat unless you have the courage to act on your judgment and wisdom all of these
desirable dualities are entirely useless.
Lots in Poe are a good investment • at present prices. The town is bound to grow
rapidly. Owing to the easy terms of payment you have the ability to buy, and if you do
not buy now it is because you are lacking in courage, and the chances are you will never
be like the man you now admire most, rich, courageous and wise.
TORREN S TITLE
Pepe townsite is held by us under the Torrens system of title. Under this system
the title is guaranteed by the Government, therefore absolutely safe.
PRICES AND TERMS

six, twelve and eighteen months.

COMM(TNICATED.
By Rev. C. C. Sink.
During the year 1887 I was erxi.
ployed by a noted scientist Q. H.
Gra,ser, M. D. A. M., of Bryan
Ohio, to supply him for publication
a reliable statement in chapters,
on Numismatics. I devoted cot?,
siderable time on the subject and
the chapters were twelve in
number, occupying from one to
two columns of reading in the
"Telegram", 0 paper printed in the
city of .toledo, Ohio. In looking
over some of the historical seete
,hent:+ made, I became amused as
well as interested in the (edifies
and novelties of Illy discoveries,
and thinking that they might
supply your readers with some
information on money matters as
the records show, I send you this
article which you are at lilaerty to
dispose of. Money was at first an
article that carne with time. At
first all trade was clone by barter
or exchange. The blacksmith gave
his work for meat, grain tread skins.
The 1'Ierdsinan was paid from the
flocks they tended, cattle were
early used as money. This kind of
money had one advantage it had
lege and could walk. The book of
Job in the bible refers to values in!
lambs, But people began to leek
around for something handier and
as vanity is very old articles used
to adorn the b.n
cls were resorted to.

prosperous trade by the use of
China beads, which were sold to
the natives. Frederick the 11 at
the seige of Milan issued stamped
pieces of • leather as money. Cod
fish in'Icelan6 and Newfotindlancl
away back was also used as money,
Slaves and oxen passed cns's'ently
in ancient. Greece, and among .the
Anglo Saxons in payment of debts,
soap and stones, which were herd
enough to cut glass were prized
above gold or silver. It one of the
Egyptian pyramids a stone coin
was found in Pharabh's pence.
In Scotland at a time it was not
nrcomrnon for workman to• carry
nails instead ot monoy to the
bakers shop. Tobacco was at ono
time generally used in the State
of Virginia as money even up to
the year 106, fifty seven years
