"What Am I Going To Do
Willi That Property?"

"Lath and plaster side walls are bound to crack.
Kalsomine ceilings will jar loose. Every year I have big
bills for plastering and repairing." The answer to this
man's problem will certainly solve some of your diffi¬
culties.

Why not put up METAL CEILINGS and SIDE
WALLS that are just as neat, more decorative, and
permanent—cost less to erect and require no repairing?

Aside from the cost of continual repairs, it costs less
to erect Metal Ceilings and Side Walls in the first place.
If you have a piece of property that doesn't show the re¬
turns it should, is hard to rent, and you think it will cost
too much to put in first class condition, we would be
glad to give you estimates, show you how you can effect
economy, not only this year, but for years to come. In
a great many instances we can save you a considerable
amount on your fire insurance.
