The fact that Home-building is being done here on a large scale makes possible prices that demand results. But it must not be overlooked either that the fact of one being able to get all of the advantages of suburban life and at the same time all of the comforts of city conveniences in one suburb has had a material effect on the judgment of thinking buyers. Whether we build fifty Homes or three, the same per- sonal attention is given to every detail of construction and finish. This is evidenced by the fact that only one- tenth’of the work on any Home is given out on contract. Nine-tenths is done by us by day labor under the direct supervision of trained men, not one of whom has been with us less than eight years. We take less chance with the work we do on our Homes than most people do with the food they eat. What You Can See Right Now : Our Six-Room American Bungalow An actual revelation in Home planning and the first time we have been able to‘ retain one long enough for general yuhhc inspection. The living room with the new French stairway, which affords about 40% more available wall space, and a most essential cloak closet is very interesting. The sun-flooded rooms and the unusually fine general finish for a moderate-priced homte is striking. Big lots, lots of lawns.
