Why Architects 
Urge Brass Pipe 
Because it endures —Anaconda Brass 
Pipe will not split. Water will not 
rust it. It will not clog or leak. Mon¬ 
ey spent in tearing out and replacing 
inferior, corrodible pipe is saved. 
Because it insures —rngs and fur¬ 
nishings are safe from stains of leak¬ 
ing water. Ceilings will not fall or be 
made unsightly. You will be spared 
the annoyance of dribbling water 
caused by rust clogged pipes or rusty 
water in your bathtub. No fear of 
torn out walls or ripped up floors. 
None of the confusion and expense 
that follows in the footsteps of the 
repair man. 
And the cost is almost negligible. 
Less than 1 per cent of your building 
cost will cover the added cost of Ana¬ 
conda Brass Pipe. The difference is 
only about $75 for a $15,000 house.

The Kind of Home You 
Come to Love 
I 
N one of Edgar Guests’s poems he says: 
o’ living in a house to make it home.” 
It takes a heap 
And, just as truly, it takes the touch of the passing years, the 
softening and weathering of rains and snows and winds and 
suns, to make the outside of a house look like home.
