A few years ago only the most expensive homes could
afford a complete IDEAL Built-In Kitchen. A kitchen
with ample storage space, scientifically designed by
cooking experts for the greatest cooking efficiency, step
and work saving. But NOW, through mass production
economies, we can offer you an IDEAL Kitchen, machine-
factory precision built, at a remarkably low price. This
built-in Kitchen is made up of units which will fit into
all Kitchen room shapes. No hotel or fine restaurant has
more efficient working facilities than your own IDEAL

Such a home is where you would rather be

This is the "Plastic Age”. Countless new materials de-
veloped by chemistry and research are revolutionizing
every industry. Building is no exception. There are new
wall boards which give the finish and appearance of
costly woods but can be installed at a popular price.
Others offer all the colors of the rainbow—are water-
proof and replace tile. Elimination of wall cracks;
insulation; sound deadening; quicker, lower cost instal-
lation; color and finish effects never before possible at
any price are some of the advantages these new products

Insulation has done more to make Southern homes more
comfortable than any other recent building development.
Our hot Summers and suddenchanges of Fall and Winter
temperatures make home insulation important in the
Southwest. Insulation combined with IDEAL Lockjoint
Windows pay for themselves. In heating-cost savings
alone. In hot Summer weather, take the oven off your
home with insulation. It lowers Winter heating bills
also.

Yes! These old fashioned dresses will pro-
tect you from the elements. And you might
be able to travel a few miles in rhe old auto-
mobile. But would you want to? No—you
wouldn’t be seen in either except in a "Found-
ers’ Day” Parade or Masquerade. But—your
home, too, must face your friends!
Did you ever stop to think of the steps you
take each day in your kitchen? Every needless
step, every useless bit of work that an old
kitchen requires takes just that much from
your beauty, youth, health and disposition.
Don’t let the "factory" end of your home be
a "sweatshop”, taking a daily and irreplace-
able toll from your life and happiness.

This is a modern home—modernized inside
and outside to bring it as up-to-date as to-
morrow’s automobile. These people have
protected their large building investment by
insuring it with modernization. In addition,
they have the plusses given by the comforts,
pleasures, conveniences of a modern home.

The kitchen is the woman’s workshop. It can
be a work-making, extra-step-making, impos-
sible to keep spotlessly clean workshop. Or,
it can be an efficient, step-saving, modern
IDEAL Kitchen. It can be a drab place of
drudgery. Or it can be the home of delicious
meals prepared in a happy atmosphere of
bright colors with efficient equipment and
arrangement.

Bathrooms can be one of the most attractive
rooms in the house. Colorful walls and fix-
tures; convenient built-in cabinets; bright
linen—these make a bathroom of which you
would be proud. Even more important—that
would add joy to your day.
Wm. Cameron & Co., as the largest retailers of paints
in the Southwest, naturally had a wide choice of brands
of paint to sell. They were interested in finding a brand
of paint that would meet their quality specifications and
stand up under Southwestern weather conditions. Minne-
sota Brand Paints met those specifications. Weld-Tite,
Minnesota’s newest product, gives 3-coat results with
only two coats. Since labor is the major painting cost,
here is a nearly one-third saving on this new development
alone.
Attends Meeting.
C. C. Isbell, superintendent of
the Ennis Schools attended the
ecunty meeting of the Texas State
teachers which was held Saturday
morning at Waxahachie.
A HOME is the reflection of its owner. Its appearance and modern, smart styling is
just as important in your friends’ impression of you as your clothes, your automobile
or your youthful outlook on life.
And out-of-date, work-making, drudgery-building homes are so needless today.
Government figures show that building costs (for either new homes or moderniza-
tion) are below normal. Modernization financing costs are low with small, easy,
monthly payment terms.
Home Modernization Easy
YOU can make your home a "dream home”—modernized with colorful styling.
Equipped with the latest step-saving conveniences. YES, home modernization is
simple and easy today—if you use the Cameron way.
A Complete Building Service to Help You
Cameron men are equipped to consult and advise with you on your moderniza-
tion problems. They can inspect and survey your property; design "last-word” mod-
ernization; arrange low monthly-cost financing; install and supervise the converting
of your home into a treasure-chest of beauty and convenience as up-to-date as
Park Avenue.
However, Home Modernization is not something you should hastily rush into
without first consulting a professional adviser, such as your trained Cameron repre-
sentative. Successful and permanently satisfactory remodeling is not thought up
today and carried out tomorrow. Without properly trained assistance in working
out your modernization problems you can waste money and not achieve the results
you had hoped for.
Cameron Men Are Trained Modernization Specialists
That is why Cameron Men are especially trained and equipped to:
1. Survey your property.
2. Be completely familiar with the latest building materials, methods, styl-
ing and ideas.
3. Advise you on the best solutions for you of your Modernization needs in
value, style, beauty and comfort.
4. Deliver and supervise the installation of a quality job to meet those care-
fully pre-determined needs.
Wm. Cameron & Company is interested in satisfied, repeat customers—not just
one-time sales. We know that satisfactory construction results from a combination
of planning in advance by trained experts, such as ours; quality materials, and con-
scientious craftsmanship. But first, and most important, must come thinking, sur-
veying and planning. From these only come satisfied customers.
That is why We emphasize the importance of our trained men and their advice
to you. Don’t overlook the vital necessity of this trained advisory service in securing
for you a fully satisfying home modernization.
Know the Joy of a Modern Home
You can scarcely realize the beauty, work-saving and lower operating cost
improvements that now are in modern homes. Cameron’s can put these improvements
in your home. Many pay for themselves in lower heating costs, less dust and dirt
damage to your other household goods, and lower repair bills. All more than pay
for themselves in greater comfort, convenience and joy of living. After all, we
have only one life to live. What contributes more than a modern home?

In the old days most millwork was built on the job by
hand with whatever materials and tools that were avail-
able. Today, IDEAL MILLWORK—Doors, Windows,
Frames, Mouldings, Built-in IDEAL Cabinets and Kit-
chens—are manufactured by costly and large machines.
Machines which can be set to a hundredth of an inch to
secure uniformity and perfect fit. The workmen are spe-
cialists in their field. Mass production methods permit
lower price. So, today, you can get a better product in
IDEAL MILLWORK and CAMERON HOMES for less
cost than in the past.
