spread beauty and happiness through the !
land making this a nation, world reputed ‘
for its lovely homes. .
Paint, of course, is the very best insurance to protect the home from decay and
its resultant repair expense. But when you
paint — style your home. It costs no more
to use color to bring out the advantages
of your particular home and to blend the
defects out of notice.
Everybody notices a newly painted
house. A fresh, clean coat of paint makes
scowling houses smile again. Their own-_
ers feel a new thrill of delight. The community regards the home owner who keeps
his home painted as a good neighbor and
a valuable citizen.
Make it a point to paint this year. Call
on a reliable painter today. Start now and
your worries will be over for years. If you'
have any doubt about‘ what colors to‘use,
