Before Upsonizing 
Many women put up with the de- 
pressing atmosphere of a dismal, 
gloomy kitchen— simply because 
they fear that remodeling would 
betoo expensive. _ : 
For about $ro, east of the Rockies, you can buy 
enough Upson Fibre - Tile for the wainscot of a 
9’x 12’ kitchen, exclusive of labor, trim and cost 
of finishing. 
You, too, can have 
bright and cheerful kitchen walls 
EARLY every woman longs for a kitchen 
with inviting walls that can always be kept 
spic-and-span. 
For every one has an ideal bathroom or kitchen in 
mind. But many have denied themselves the de- 
light of modern walls in these rooms because they 
thought remodeling too expensive. 
You needn’t delay another day! Upson Fibre-Tile 
makes it possible for every home to have tile-like 
walls in kitchen, bathroom, or laundry—attractive, 
washable, and as good-looking as ceramic tile—at 
about 1/1oth the cost. 
The dependability of Upson Fibre-Tile has been 
proved beyond question by its successful use in 
raany thousands of homes, stores, and factories. It 
is simply refined lumber that comes in big, stiff 
panels which any good carpenter can apply with 
little muss, dirt or delay. 
When properly applied, Upson Fibre-Tile, like 
Upson Board, lies flat on the wall. It successfully 
withstands the extreme conditions of bathroom or 
kitchen. 
Being securely nailed, it cannot work loose like tile- 
finished substitutes that are merely stuck to the 
walls. Applied with patented Upson Self-Clinching 
Fasteners, Upson Fibre-Tile is the one tile-board 
that eliminates ugly, disfiguring nail-marks. 
The Upson dealer who sells Upson Board can be 
depended upon to give you the best building mate- 
rials at honest prices. His choice of Upson products
