M Supposition
Suppose you had $5,000 in the bank, and suppose
that you owned a beautiful, level, roomy lot on one of At
lanta’s best residence streets, and suppose again that the
accumulation of this $5,000 had been by your own per
severance and hard toil, aided at every turn by those eco
nomic efforts and encouraging words of the dear, sweet
wife, and then suppose that you and the little wife get to
gether and decide to build on this lot and to erect a home
that all the children and the grandchildren will, in after
years, look upon with great devotion and a thousand happy
little remembrances—stop—BSn 9 lt that a beautiful
thought? —anyway, let's keep on supposing a little
more; after the decision is rendered and the verdict is that
the home shall be a reality—then what would you do?
Go out to the first amateur carpenter that you chanced to
meet and tell him: “Here, Mr. Carpenter, I’ve got $5,000
down here in the bank and I want you to go out to E. Z.
street and build a house—don’t matter what kind of mate
rial you use, just so it looks gxjod and has all the modern
appearances of a five-thousand-dollar building—that will
be sufficient.” Is that what you would do? NO,
a thousand times no. You would seek the best contractor
in the city—in your contract you would have the grade of
lumber specified, the class of brick and mortar to be used,
the style, design of every glass, the grade of every nail,
screw, lock, cord, paint, or papering—and when the job is
complete and Mr. Contractor wants his money, you will
carefully look everything over, read and reread the contract,
and if all specifications are absolutely complied with,
you sign the check*,
Bid You Ever Think
That the same precaution—the same sound judgment,
should be used in the purchasing of a Steel naoye
something that is to be a prominent part of the home for
the balance of your life? Well, it you haven’t here is a
little room for thought. Just the same judgment should
be used in buying a $50.00 Range as is used in,a $5,000.00
home—that's the way a millionaire would do it. Why
not act like one even if you OF3 only destined to be
happy in your cozy little home?
Come to us with that attitude, with that feeling about
your own interest, and we promise to meet you on more
than half-way grounds. * We will absolutely; from side to
side, from top to bottom, from exterior to interior, guaran
tee every feature, every pound of steel, and in short 6very
word that we claim for the Sted SiangSo"
If we can do any more than this, a rich reward will be
paid to the one imparting the information. *
