There's an offer that's hard to refuse! $25 down and material to build a beautiful bungalow like that in the engraving. Mercer Manor is located off of Edinburg Road, just north of five points. The streets the the Manor are named for prominent politicians of the era: Hoover, Lansing, etc.).

FROM MIKE "MACK" MCNICOLL:
Hi Tom:
I noticed that when I moved out here. They all appeared to be Members of President Wilson's
Cabinet or Government including Hoover who helped get Europe fed after that nasty senseless war. A family story I was always told was we were related to President Wilson.. and my Grandma had a high batting average with her stories so I have never dismissed it but have never proven it either.

FROM RALPH LUCARELLA:
Hi Tom: In 1954 I bought the lot on the corner of Edinburg Road and Hoover Ave. for $1,200. It was a very large lot and I built a house there for $17,00 in 1955, with a loan from Roma Savings. It was a beautiful home but we just could'nt get used to hot air heat. I ended up selling it and buying a home on Marshall ave. which was all brick and with radiator heat, something we always longed for. Best regards.
