“We Build a House” 
We begin by wanting a brick house be¬ 
cause we love beautiful effects; we de¬ 
sire fire-proofness; we shrink from the 
shabby periods which precede repaint¬ 
ing repairs; and we long to be free 
from these expenses. 
We soon discover that modern engi¬ 
neering has changed the size and shape 
of brick to save labor cost and freight, 
and to give it insulating properties 
which reduce heat loss in winter.

has greater width making it equivalent 
to a face brick and a common brick so 
that the mason handles only about half 
as many. 
It contains three small closed air cells—effi¬ 
cient heat insulation that saves coal. 
Consulting our architect we mutually decide 
on ‘'Fisklock". It is our ideal—a first qual¬ 
ity face brick combining charming texture 
and blending color tones with saving in 
initial cost; coal saving; and freedom from 
repairs and repainting.

How often a house hides a 
sunny, hospitable heart be¬ 
hind a gloomy exterior. 
That is because many of us 
devote our time to creating 
an attractive interior, 
almost entirely forgetting 
that side which the world 
sees—the outside. 
Few things go further towards 
making a house a home —outside 
as well as in—than artistic exter¬ 
ior lighting. Nothing welcomes 
the coming guest or speeds the 
parting one like a cheerful radi¬ 
ance at the gate, along the drive 
or on the porch. Nothing is more 
discouraging to the evil-doer. 
Since 1840 the works at York, 
Pa., have specialized in artistry 
in iron. Smyser-Royer fixtures 
adorn America's most beautiful 
estates. They light the approach 
to the Grand Central Station in 
New York. They illuminate the 
Roosevelt Dam in Arizona. 
The Smyser-Royer line ranges from 
a quaint and modest porch lantern for 
the smaller town or suburban house to 
the most elaborate lighting effects suit¬ 
able for extensive demesnes or public 
buildings. The Smyser-Royer name is 
warranty not only of superior crafts¬ 
manship but of lasting, weather resist¬ 
ing beauty.
