A Parallel Proposition 



A HOUSE 200 feet long on private 

 grounds looks too commercial, but 

 two 100 foot houses built parallel 

 fashion like these, and you have an attract- 

 ive, compact proposition. 

 Hovi'ever, it is just as you say — "the vi^ay a 

 house is planned depends pretty much on 

 where it is to be located," and for what it 

 is to be used. 



Now that you mention the question of lo- 

 cations, we want you to have our catalog — 

 and see some of the diflferent stunts we 

 have accomplished in locating. Many of 

 them were tough nuts to crack and the 

 catalog tells how we cracked them.

About Saving Money 



npHERE are times, you know, 

 when price is not the only 

 factor in landing a job. 

 Every once in a while a man real- 

 izes that it's good business to spend 

 money to save money. 

 There is much to be said strongly 

 in favor of a repair free house like 

 these iron frame ones of ours are.
