MT. LeiuNO.V. N. Y., Sept. 27. 1971. 
Respected Eiuends .—in reply to your inquiry bh 
to what we think of the Averill Chemical Paint, we 
have used In our Society at Mount Lebanon some 
l.OX) Rill Ion*. W* wre v»*ry much nluuued with It, unci 
until w$Are convinced that thorn hMoniottilriK fmttor. 
shall Rive It the preference of all other paints. We 
have used heretofore the t—j. (—), and most nil 
other hrnnils of white lend, neither of which have 
Riven us perfect satisfaction. Most, of It would chalk 
olr after being on some two or three yarn. This, 
after three yours' experience, we do not ilnd to bu 
the ease with the Averill Pure White Chemical Paint. 
Indeed, It appears just an well ns when llrsi put on. 1 
will write you again on the subject when I am not , 
In quite so much of a hurry.
