was made in Western Top)
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 or the unfortunate one who bad the chance but did not possess
sufficient judgment to recognize the opportunity or sufficient courage to close a deal?
The man or woman entitled to sympathy is the one who says: "Five or ten years ago 1
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 $1,000 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 located in one of the finest farming in WesternCanada.
The surrounding country is settled by a progressive type of farmers and consequently
- will become the market centre for Northern Alberta. Poe district possesses rich coal
8 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
necessary transportation facilities. These combined conditions will furnish cheap labor,
one of the most important features of a manrefacturing centre.

Property
during the year. 1909
Poe townsite was recently placed on the market and already over 200 lots 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, but unless you have the courage to act on your judgment and wisdom all of these
desirable qualities 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.
