Plays Contract"
But Not Bridge"

It's pretty stiff proposition to
plan to do the yearly improving of
the house and find that the family
cash register will not register the
slightest approval of such an expedi-
ture of money.
Well, you may do one of two
things: You may go ahead with the
work and get into heavy debt, or
you may let the work alone and
find the house in twice as bad
condition next year, when you go
over it to see what needs to be done.
That is where Alvin Porter comes
in handily to your assistance. If the
Job of improvement is paper hang
ing and painting and interior decor
ating, then Mr.. Porter can show you
how it may be done, easily and tc
your satisfaction. You see, in add
ton to papering or painting your
house, he will finance the job FOL
you, and there is the solution to YOU
problem.
If you are planning improvements
on your home this summer or fall
