Paint Plays 

 An Important 

 Part in 

 Decoration 



[AMILIAR as everyone 

 is with colors, the ac- 

 tual choice of tints for 

 decorating the interior 

 or exterior of the home 

 often proves a difficult task, 

 fjj But with the aid of our "Dutch 

 Boy Paint Adviser No. 95/' cor- 

 rect decision becomes merely a 

 matter of selecting the particular 

 arrangement you prefer from a 

 group of color plates showing 

 many different color schemes. It 

 is free. Send for it. 

 •I Having chosen the color scheme 

 with care, choose your paint still 

 more carefully; otherwise, the 

 beautiful color-scheme may van- 

 ish in a few months. Insist that 

 the paint be mixed for the job, us- 

 ing pure white lead (" Dutch Boy 

 Painter" trade mark) and pure 

 linseed oil. Then, and then only, 

 will the color plan be carried out 

 both durably and economically. 



Our Pure 'White Lead ("Dutch Boy Paint- 

 er " trade mark) is now packed in steel 

 kegs, dark gun-metal finish, instead of in 

 oak kegs as heretofore. Ask your dealer.

Kewanee System 

 of Water Supply 



"Ifa man can write a belter hook, preach a better sermon, or 

 build a better mouse-trap than his neighbor, even though he build 

 his house in the wilderness, the world will make a beaten track to 

 bis doorway." —Ralph Waldo Emerson. 



Emerson was right. Many are the paths which the world 

 has made to the doors of people who do better things in the 

 fields of letters, science, art and manufacture. 



And a path has been beaten to our door, because we origi- 

 nated a better system of water supply — the first improvement 

 in water supply systems since the days of Adam. Our water 

 supply system — the 



Kewanee System of Water Supply 



has revolutionized the possibilities of 

 private water supply service. 



First, we originated a better tank in 

 which to store the water. Not an elevated 

 or attic tank to leak, freeze, overflow or 

 collapse. The Kewanee Tank is located in 

 the cellar or in the ground and it delivers 

 the water by air pressure. 



Then we found that the pumping 

 machinery the market afforded was wholly 

 inadequate for the requirements of air 

 pressure service. So we built better pump- 

 ing machinery. Not just a little better, but 

 so much better that it is in a class by itself. 



And we planned the best methods of assem- 

 bling the tanks, pumping outfits and con- 

 nections, to complete more desirable water 

 systems than had ever been known before. 



We were technically trained and experi- 

 enced engineers with an ideal, not manu- 

 facturers trying to dispose of a product. 

 We attained our ideal — The Kewanee Sys- 

 tem, but only became manufacturers when 

 existing manufacturers could not satisfy 

 our requirements, and hence could not meet 

 the needs of our clients. 



And so, over 10,000 Kewanee Systems 

 are supplying all the comforts and sanitary 

 conveniences which would be possible with 

 the best city water works systems. They 

 furnish an abundance of water, under strong 

 pressure, to bathrooms, kitchens, laundries, 

 lawns, gardens, barns, etc. 



Schools, farms, country and suburban 

 homes, public and private institutions, 

 country clubs, fraternal homes and even 

 towns, have helped to beat the track to our 

 door— are supplied with water by the 

 Kewanee System.
