sheathing as a stucco

Thornton, Architect. 
It is Insulating Lumber 
Celotex is a strong, light, weatherproofed, durable building 
lumber made from the long, tough fibres of cane. No other con^ 
struction lumber in the world is like it. 
So adaptable is Celotex to construction requirements and so 
varied are its qualities that it rapidly became national in scope. 
Many are the uses of Celotex and in every case it replaces one 
or more other materials to advantage, gives greater living comfort 
and lowers final costs. 
I As sheathing, nailed direct to 
studs, Celotex replaces wood lum¬ 
ber, makes a stronger wall and gives 
the insulating value of cork. 
2 Celotex, under any roofing, cuts 
the loss of heat and prevents con¬ 
densation of moisture.

As a sound deadener, Celotex is 
ideal. It holds plaster and stucco 
perfectly. Replaces sound deadener 
and lath at a noticeable saving. 
4 The house sheathed with Celotex 
saves 25% to 35% of the usual 
fuel bills. 
5 If you want a quiet, comfortable 
home, cool in summer, cheaper to 
heat in winter, stronger, lower in first 
cost and in up-keep you will build 
with Celotex. 
Your architect can tell you more about this wonderful building 
lumber. We will gladly send you a completely illustrated thirty- 
two page book on Celotex and tell you how it will save you 
money not only in first cost but as long as your house stands.
