Low price and rosy promises count for naught
when you try to put “cheap” paint on the wall.
The joker gets the laugh on you every time.
On the usual size house seven gallons of fine
.....>°Id SWP House Paint will do a better job than
eleven gallons of average “cheap” paint.
Moreover, SWP lasts for five years. And
right there is where your greatest economy
, comes in. For “cheap” paint fades, chips and
chalks in a very short time. In five years you
will have to repaint two, three or even more,
times. Estimate what that will cost you.
It will pay you to get our estimates on
beautiful and economical SWP paint. We can
show you where it will cost only about half as
much per year as a cheap-looking ‘‘cheap”
paint. Ask for the name of a painter who
applies SWP House Paint.
’ Let the Household Painting Guide solve
your paint problems. It stops mistakes by
showing the correct finish for every surface

Business worries and the upsi
and downs of love are the chief
files in the ointment of content-
ment in Fort Worth.
This is gleaned from scanning
the hundreds of letters written by
Press readers to the Ushers, noted
psychologists, appearing at the
Majestic Theater this week.
So heavy has been the response
to the offer of the Ushers to an-
swer all questions propounded to
them thru letters written in care
of The Press, they will be unable '
to consider any questions mailed
after Wednesday.

Boyce Coombs, comedian at the
Worth this week, ia as British as
he looks aud talks.
Coombs came over in 1911
with the champion English golf
team, seeking the Walker cup.
He played 211 matches in one
year. He lost only seven of these.
Jones, Hagen, Evana and other
masters went down in defeat be-
fore his unerring atroke.
Coombs has had movie experi-
ence, too. He was leading man in
a number of Goldwyn productions.
He was the young "daddy” in
"Daddies.”
He is ruddy-faced and more
than lives up to the Englishman's
reputation for sartorial perfec-
tion.
He is as effective a story-teller
off the stage as on.
When Director Al Morey makes
his pretty Intrqductory speech
for Coombs he never knows
whether the comedian will pop
out of the wings or not.
Coombs is almost invariably
tardy. Not a lot+but Just enough
to have our Al in something ap-
