"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. The Brooklyn Metal Ceiling Company 283 Greene Avenue Brooklyn, N. Y.
