Everything is done by our own craftsmen; done with Eberly Plan efficiency; and without the usual duplication of overhead profits—for there is only ONE—a moderate one— and only ONE responsibility—OURS. If you have in mind putting your home in “tune with the times” send for an Eberly Plan Supervisor to counsel with you.
