The Interesting Instance 

 of Rheinhardt & Son, of Merriam, Kansas 



Merriara is five miles or so from Kansas City. 



The Rheinhardts are one of the oldest fam- 

 ilies in that section, and large owners of 

 farm lands. 



Year by year. Kansas City has gradually 

 crept out their way, doubling and tripling 

 their land values. 



There came a time when a golf club wanted 

 to rent a big slice of farm land, and so Mr. 

 Rheinhardt and his son concluded to give up 

 extensive farming and do a little intensive. 



They already had built one of our Pipe 

 Frame Houses by way of experiment. 



It proved so successful thai last fall they 

 completed two more of the same construc- 

 tion. 



Bought the materials of us and did their own 

 erecting. 



It was along in early November when I 

 happened around there one morning and had 

 a most delightful talk with both father and 

 son. 



The father had that brand of rare solid 

 sense which comes to men who have had 

 years of looking things straight in the face. 



The son was all enthusiasm. 



Not the bubbling kind, that just spills over 

 and nothing much else. But the brand that 

 keeps on smiling and climbing while he's 

 smiling. 



A combination of Dad and Son like that, just 

 can't help making the cash register merrily 

 ring up profits. 



When I came away, it was with an armful 

 of choice mum blooms, which certainly did 

 gladden up my hotel room. 



After which, sent them to the hospital to 

 bring sunshine to some poor cuss or other. 



If you are thinking of building and live with- 

 in going distance of Rheinhardt & Son, take 

 time to go and talk with them. You will 

 sure get some solid, sound sense on green- 

 house building.
