Vvhal Is Your Choice for Interior Finish?

Whll Is Your Choice for Interior Finish?
Here are the different kinds Of interior
trim that we have in stock ready for your
inspection and choice.
There is good, old-fashioned oak and
yellow pine, birch and that splendid wall
board known as Beaver Board.
Oak and yellow pine as we say are old
standbys-they are always good and al
ways work up beautifully. Birch is COM
ing more and more into favor right along
and makes beautiful finish because Of
the great variety of stains which can be
used on it to excellent advantage.
BEAVER BOARD will be more popu-
lar this year than ever. 1t takes many
beautiful finishes or the pebbled surface
alone without any additional finish makes
beautiful room.
Suppose you and your wife come in as
soon as possible and let us show you these
different finishes and explain how each
has been used in some homes that you
may know about. Well help you select
an interior finish for your new home or
for any changes that you may want to
make this Spring that we know will please
YOU and that you'll like better day by day
as you live with it. Well help you keep
the cost down too. There isn't a better
stock of interior finish and mill work in
this part Of the country than we can
show you.
