The Increased cost of labor and ma-

of quality all tho way through that

As a natural companion to this Idea
of quality building thero has devel-
oped also an Increasing demand for

proof construction has becomo moro
and moro Insistent every year until
now houses which may be considered

common. Tho building of a homo al-
