W HEN you enter a room, the first thing that attracts 
your attention is the woodwork — the interior trim. 
If the room is finished in Mahogany, you know that 
you are in a home, not a house, and that the builder or 
owner, took pride in its appearance. Its value increases 
in your estimation. 
The adaptability of Mahogany is evidenced by the charm 
it imparts to any room—whether it is a stately library with 
paneled walls and elaborate cornice, or a dining room in 
a bungalow with only a baseboard and pidture moulding. 
But the cost of Mahogany trim ? 
Is very little, if any, more than any other cabinet wood, 
and it adds so much to the value of a house that its use 
can be considered as a sales asset. 
It is a mistaken idea that Mahogany is either difficult 
to obtain or that its cost is high. 50,000,000 board feet 
were imported into the United States last year. Write to 
the Mahogany Association, Inc., for information You will 
be surprised to learn that beautiful, everlasting'Mahogany 
can be used for door and window trim, baluster rails, stair 
spindles and treads, plate rails, baseboards and pidture 
mouldings of your home, at a very moderate cost, and 
that it finishes just as easily and with more beauty than 
other cabinet woods. 
A room trimmed with Mahogany forms a wonderful 
setting for your Mahogany furniture. Its rich undertones 
bespeak hospitality, distindtiveness, comfort and the charm 
and good taste which cluster around the artistic home.
