SlX'ROOM HOUSE No. 613 Designed for the Service Department, American Face Brick Association 
This six-room bungalow is one of the ninety-two designs in our “Face Brick Bungalow and Small House Plans.” Note the size of the rooms and their con¬ 
venient arrangement, the careful placing of the large windows to provide plenty of sunlight and ventilation, as well as the dignity and beauty of the exterior. 
W HY is it that you see so many more Face Brick houses 
being built than ever before? The answer is simple. 
All over the country thoughtful builders are finding that a 
beautiful Face Brick house—whether large or small—is not 
beyond their means; that it is, as a matter of fad:, the most eco- 
nomical house they can build. 
The economy of the Face Brick house lies in the many saw 
ings it effects after it is built—slow depredation, no repair bills, 
painting only around doors and windows, low insurance rates 
and smaller fuel bills; not to mention the economic value of fire' 
safety, comfort and beauty. These savings, in a few years, more 
than wipe out the slightly higher first cost of the Face Brick 
house over less durable and less beautiful materials. 
“The Story of Brick,” an artistic booklet with numerous illus- 
trations, discusses these matters in detail. It has much helpful 
information for all who intend to build. Sent free. 
“Face Brick Bungalow and Small House Plans” are issued 
in four booklets, showing 3 to 4-room houses, 5-room houses, 
6-room houses and 7 to 8-room houses, in all ninety-two, each 
reversible with a different exterior design. These designs are un¬ 
usual and distinctive, combined .with convenient interiors and 
economical construction. The entire set for one dollar. Any one 
of the booklets, 25 cents, preferably in stamps. 
We have the complete working drawings, specifications and 
masonry quantity estimates at nominal prices. Select from the 
booklets the designs you like best and order the plans, even if 
you are not going to build now, for their study will be not only 
interesting and instructive, but helpful in formulating your 
future plans for a home.
