CHRISTMAS REFLECTIONS ABOUT
FAIRFIELD
In what better way could you show your Interest and affection
for your wife or married son or daughter at this Christmas sea
son than by giving a lot at Fairfield?
What more beautiful spot could you select for a home than
Fairfield? What better neighbors could you find? What city
with such model streets and varied Improvements at every hand?
What investment could be made that is fortified with Industrial
plants costing many millions, where over 2500 men earn good
wages every week and spend It freely for the luxuries of life?
What other city of Its size has such a rosy future forecast as
Fairfield; where other millions will doubtless soon be spent on
plants to manufacture finished steel products?
Let This Christmas Be
A Fairfield Christmas
i A gift of Fairfield lots would be a royal Christ qias gift. It
s would be an Investment for self or family that will make good
profits. It would be a home site equaled by few. It could be Im

cheapness of labor and materials. Don’t wait. Look Into this
at once.
