PAINT FOR BEAUTY
Y HOUGH you i- home may be expensively constructed of the
best materials, built by the finest builders, it may still lack'
something . . . it is the surface, .that meets the eye. Unless
your home is protected and beautified by good paint work you
are neglecting the most important point of appearance. Paint is .
not only beautifying but economical ... it will protect your
home against time and weather. Estimates, no obligation.
