walls and ceilings you can make with Sheetrock, the 
fireproof wallboard.

cost. 
Sheetrock is economical to buy. For a few dollars 
you can get enough of it for a good-sized room. 
It is economical to use, because it comes in broad, 
ceiling-high sheets, all ready to apply. All that needs 
to be done is to nail the Sheetrock to the joists or 
studding. It nails and saws just like lumber. 
As soon as the Sheetrock is up, you can decorate and 
move right in. No costly delays of any kind when 
you build or repair with Sheetrock. 
Sheetrock is economical to have in your home, too, 
because it takes wallpaper, paint or panels, provides 
a rigid base on which any of these decorations holds 
up well, involves no maintenance cost, and is last¬ 
ingly permanent as the house itself. 
Your dealer in lumber or builders’ supplies sells this 
economical wallboard for new construction and re¬ 
pairs. Write to us for booklet and sample.
