In short, are you the man who made a profit or 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 woman entitled to sympathy • 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 hada 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 is located in one of the finest farming districts .inWesterneanada. The surrounding country is settled by a progressive type of farmers and consequently will become the market centre for Northern Alberta. Poe district possessesrich 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 necessary transportation facilities. These combined conditions will furnish cheap labor, one of the most important features of a manufacturing centre.

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. :jots 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 buykho'W 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.
