Laures Pf?©sic 653 West McHenry FOE MiME BUILDING appeals to the conservative man because it offers a tangible basis upon which to reckon. Take lumber, for instance, and you can see evidence on all sides where houses that were built of wood have outlasted a generation and are today (if they have l>een given the proper care) as good as new. Wood has stood the test and can be utilized today as economically as any other material, considered from all points--appearance, durability and healthfulness. In its use you have precedence to go by. What others have done with it you can do, and the lumber we handle these days is the product of the best "quality" mills in the United States. It's a pleasure to show it as well as to talk its vari­ ous uses, and ^e are at your ser­ vice from 7 to ti daily. Come in. ••There's No Place Like Home" WILBUR LUMBER CO. 'PHONE est.
