“I wish our locks worked like that, 
“Yes, we are proud of our 
hardware—it’s Corbin.'’ 
T HAT’S the way with good hardware— 
the longer you live with it, the better 
you like it. Its beauty, its prompt, precise 
action, the sense of security it inspires in 
you when you “lock up” for the night 
make it ever so worth while. 
Good hardware is a long-term investment. 
For little more than you would pay for 
doubtful quality, you can have hardware 
that will make the most modest home a 
joy to live in—hardware that even the 
chance caller will recognize as worthy of 
I its environment. 
I Today, more and more people are show- 
| ing their contempt for shoddy building 
j by insisting on good materials and good 
\ workmanship. These people know that 
Good Buildings deserve Good Hardware.
