Add Greatly to the Valuation
of q Home and to the
Health of Its Occupants

THE Spring Road Properties are ideal examples
of this sunlight and ventilation about which
we hear so much these days.
In addition to the beauty of the exterior design
ing and the practical interior arrangement of room
space, an inspection will impress you with the fact
that every part of these homes is notceabiy bright
and cheerful and that an abundant supply of fresh air
is constantly being furnished without any attendant
draft or chill
This proper regard for sunlight and ventilation
in the construction Of the Spring Road Properties is
one of many points of superiority that characerizes
their construction We haven't the time nor you
the inclination to read mass of detailed information
What you should do and what we would rather have
you do is to investigate the Spring Road Properties
for yoursef-now, while you still have the oppor-
tunity to become the owner of one.
Such an inspection on your part will enlghten
you many things, not the least of which will be
the inadvisablity of paying rent any longer, when
this money can be far more advantageously spent in
the purchase of home of your own on terms as easy
as paying rent
