Have you talked to ua lately about building?
Do you know how reasonably you can make needed repairs, build your new' home, or remodel your old one?
Better get in touch with th''e Bituation at once.
The big building program that was expected in 1920 failed to deyelop. The manutacturcrc were c».ught with too large Stocks, and were forced to turn tbem over at almost cost.
We can show you a substantial sanring on every item In our line.
But it's only fair to tell you this condiltion may be only temporary. Tlie country is short morb than a million homes. Our own city It short 600,900 homes. When people begin to do thta long delayed building, demand wlU Increaae rapidly, creat¬ ing another shortage of materiaia, and pricea i^ll advance again.
If you are planning to Juiild. remodel, or repair, come In and let us give you flgures. Then whan we show you tbo actual savings over laat y(«r's nrlces and show you how favorably present cbsts coinpara with thosa of 1914, muke your own decision.
