 tiff there is one man more than anoth- CT who deserves praise for his efforts to provide homes for the people it is War ren H. I.amson. He is certainly building attractive dwellings and selling them on easy monthly payments, thus providing way for the man of moderate income to occupy home at once and pay for it while enjoying the benefits of home of his own. Two houses were sold last week by MT Lamson and two contracts for new dwellings were signed. In addition to this he has five other houses in course of erection. Home seekers should con- suit the home maker, Warren H. Lam. son. His work in the past speaks his praise as we'll as those who have purchas- ed homes of him.
