YES, THEY CAN GO TOGETHER
To the average buyer high prices mean high
'quality.
Many stores gain a reputation for high quality
by charging high prices, because the idea of low
prices brings the thought of low quality.
Our store is one example of the fact that high
quality and low prices can go together.

You'll Save Money
By Remodeling Now
You who'have been waiting for lower prices be-
fore you laid that hardwood floor, renewed those
o'd walls and ceilings, re-roofed the house or barn,
or built the garage—this message is directed to you.
Do you know the lumber and building materials
are down forty per cent?
Do you know that you can repair or remodel
cheaper than at any time in the past five years?
Do you realize that every day you wait not only
inconveniences you but costs you real money?
Building material prices may come down more—
we think not—but every day you delay in getting the
new garage deprives you of the use of it, and causes
you to pay out money for garage rent.
Every day you delay roofing the barn and the
home, makes your property more liable to damage
from storm. Every day you put off inside repairs
the trouble increases and the total expense becomes
greater.
Do your repairing and remodeling at the present
bargain prices and get the benefit now.
Come in today and let us figure your job. Begin
getting the benefit now.
