In the old days the lumberman
was supposed to despise the little
bills and cater exclusively to the
large bills. Today the lumber
business is different. This is the
day of small bills and many of
them.
This firm makes a specialty of
looking after the small things
that you need. Small lots of
lumber, small lots of paint, small
lots of cement, glass or any other
article that you may need.
We always try to send a inan
where you need one.
We deliver small articles just
as promptly as we do large ones.
We want your little business.
Call ONE TWO and tell us your
needs.
