GARDEN GROVE TO BUILD MORE HOMES GARDEN GROVE, Dec. 16 — The Garden Grove Home Builders has closed a transaction for the purchase of an additional five acres east of the present home tract No. 1. This land will be called sub-division No. 3 and the erection of two new houses will be started as soon as contracts are let. The local company was organized August, 1920, by twenty business men furnishing a cash capital of $10,000 for the purpose of helping to build homes in Garden Grove. A five-acre tract was purchased, sub-divided into building lots, graded, leveled and curbed. Nearly all of these lots were sold within a year. Two houses were built and sold, and another sub-division of one acre was bought and sold, including one house, with contracts closed and in sight for several more dwellings. Additional subdivisions will be bought and sold, as rapidly as money is available. Two dividends have been declared and a cash dividend of seven per cent and a stock dividend of ten per cent. A considerable surplus remains. The paid in capital is now $11,000 and it is the intention of the company to sell at once additional stock up to $25,000, and to increase the capitalization to $75,000 as the money can be used to advantage. This is a purely home investment company. Every dollar of the assets outstanding is secured by real estate and will continue to be used exclusively for home building in Garden Grove. With a steady and constant demand for good homes—there is no reason why the investment will not continue to be high grade, according to an official of the company. The present officers and directors are: W. B. Harper, president; F. M. Reafsnyder, vice president; J. M. Woodworth, secretary and treasurer; E. M. Dozier and F. C. Thompson, directors.
