Just 7 miles from the Mid-Continent Railway Museum in North Freedom WW v N S VSS S ^ As a Union Bricklayer I've long since learned rg@isis in -the BwiMiiig Business don't just happen by your door -- you have to plan on them! • : v - v i j i l i A fast talking "Gyp Artist" in the building business can make his work sound like the greatest thing since the invention of metal tipped shoe laces . . . and some of the time his job looks good even after he has completed the work and left the area. But BEWARE . . . give ol' father time, the weather, some inferior materials and sloppy construction methods and suddenly your good deal turns bad. That's why I recommend you choose a contractor carefully -- have plans -- and get bids. Stick to a local Fox Valley Union Contractor -- one that hires only qualified Union bricklayers, carpenters and laborers. Why? Because these men have developed a team work method for getting the job done right and on time. And they take extra pride in their work. Their reputation is at stake on every job -- they can't afford to goof. So next time that fantastic offer "once-in-a-lifetime, buy now -- sign here deal," calls you on the. phone or comes in the mail or knocks on your door BEWARE. Don't rush into a quick "decide now and save deal" -- check with a local Tradesman or Contractor -- if there is a price difference there is usually, a good reason and he will tell you what it is. If you have any doubts about who to hire for a remodeling, repair or new construction job call your local Building Trades Office or The Fox Valley General Contractors Association, 303 -W. State Street, Geneva, 111. (they serve the entire Fox Valley from McHenry to Aurora). Or phone 312-232-0161. Ask for James Bannister, he'll gladly provide a list oj qualified contractors and builders in your town. Your Ufflisn Is the Hsi for the |§1!
