There aye Two Costs to a Furnace:
the Price You Payand the Upkeep
In a furnace purchase, a dollar may be a good
friend, or a false one. How you use that dollar, does
the deciding.
If you just spend it, without thought of the future,
you take chances. But when you invest your money,
the chance part is overcome.
That's just the way you should regard your fur
nace purchase. You should get highest investment
value.
On an investment basis, make up your mind to
look into the satisfaction-insuring, comfort-bringing.

A Sermon On Lumber
In conclusion my friends, wo can't get away from
this lumber question. Why, every one of us
spent our first days in a cradle made of lumber.
Our lives have been lived between walls of two
by fours and. lath, with rafters over our heads,
and matched flooring beneath our feet. We have
been sitting in wooden chairs, eating from wooden
tables, riding in wooden wagons, and in the course
of time will be laid to rest in wooden caskets.
