A. Eberly's Sons,

Gentlemen:
1 have read your announcements
from time to time, but never thought
to make personal application of them
until recently when wanted to make
some repairs and changes in my
home. l called in one craft after
another. Then it occurred to me
that l was going the inconvenient
way about it, so | sent for your
representative who gave
concrete plan and concise estimate.
l put the whole proposition up to
you and, of course, l had you do the
work. And, of course, l am
thoroughly satisfied incidentally the
financial ARRANGEMENT most
accommodating
Sincerely yours,
L. W. H.
That tells the whole story, folks. No
matter how modest or elaborate the
renovizine or undermining, The Eberly
Plan reduces all overheads to ONE
and that a moderate ONE; and there's
no division of responsibility. That's
