Devoe Takes Least
Gallons: Always
Paint Devoe; it's the cheapest
paint in the world: never mind
the price; it may or may not be
more. Less gallons will paint the
house; and the paint will outwear
anything.
Skip wear; you've got to wait,
to find that out It covers more;
you haven't got to wait to find
that out
It's the cheapest of all; no mat
ter about the price.
N R Watkins. Lott, Texas,
used 13 gallons on his house be
fore; bought 13 gallons Devoe for
same house and had 6 left
C B Edwards, of Edwards &
