Then the fun and romance starts. One

Paint and Not

Paint was so high the last few
years the market was flooded with
trash.
What is trash?
II looks like paint and pretends to
be paint, but isn't worth painting. 1t
costs a painter day to put-on
a gallon of paint, good or bad; and a
painters days work is SO or S4.
Add that to the price of a gallon.
That is the cost of gallon. Devoe is
S5 or Sc a gallon; and trash a half
dollar less.
But Devoe is all paint and more too;
YOU add oil to it; gallon is 5 or 6
quarts of perfect paint for the paint
er's pot. But trash is three-quarters
two-thirds or half paint; you pay a
half-dollar less for nobody-knows-
what-it-is.
10 gallons Devoe is enough for the
average job; it takes l5 to 20 gallons
of trash. And they wear same way.
Unfortunately, they look alike when
first put-on. -
