WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1921 A garage that you will be proud to own. You will be well satisfied with the service it will give you. A Pro-slate garage with its beautiful combination of gray green stucco-like panels, its Indian red roof and autumn brown English timber trim will really enhance the surroundings of any home. So complete and so well planned is a Pro-slate garage that you can order it in the morning and run your car into its new home that evening. A Pro-slate garage is an investment worth while. Its first cost is so low that it will pay for itself in a few months in the saving of rent alone. Let us show you the attractiveness and advantages of Pro-slate construction. You will have to see a Pro-slate garage to really appreciate it, See our exhibit. We have several of these garages in our yard ready for immediate delivery, [ooking for a Drop! No need to look for that in lumber prices for they have already dropped. Some items have dropped more than others; its the same old question of supply and demand. You must keep in mind that even at the top price lumber and mill work combined were never more than one-third of the cost of the completed building-- often considerably less. If lumber 1s one-third the cost of a building and lumber drops a third (which it has) that means we can only reduce the cost of building one-ninth. That's our share. Make this a better home year for your family and start it now. More homes are greatly needed. If you are contemplating building this year get your plans now and arrange for materials. The demand for building materials and labor last year greatly exceeded the supply and judging by the present indications the coming spring rush will be just as great. We have materials ready--call and let us figure on your requirements, whether they be large or a small. 0 OO Hubbard Woods Lumber & Coal Co, fil NA
