There can be little doubt. even in
the mind of the casual observer. that
brick is a very desirable material with
which to build a house.
The public has gradually come to
realize the enormous loss by fire. the
excessive repairs. the rapid deprecia-
ton and the discomfort in both sum
mer and winter arising from frame
construction. and to appreciate the fact
that the house of brick is not only
fireproof. but that it requires no paint
ing. that it does not decay or depreci-
ate. and that, of all types of construc-
ton. Ii sthe most beautiful.
How is it then, that America has
continued so long to build her houses
of wood. while the older countries of
Europe abandoned this type of con-
struction many generations ago2
An answer may be found IN CONVEX
sation with almost any intelligent
man or woman-'The first cost of the
brick house has been prohibitive."
However true this opinion may have
been a generation ago, or however
natural today to a people born and
reared in a land of wooden houses. II
TO longer holds good.
Conditions have changed: wood is
no longer cheap: our forests have re
ceded from civilization and have
dwindled in size until frame construc
tion costs almost much brick

people, however. who enjoy to tn
largest extent the benefits of humal

cause of mistaken idea as to its rela
tive cost.
II is time, therefore. that the presen
day facts be made public in cellar an

truth.
