Paint Transforms Things
You Can’t Replace, Makes

This is the “year-of-the-squir-
rel’’—the year to hoard old furni
ture and household equipment
rather than throw it out in spring
bousecleaning. But don’t just
relegate it to the attic—pull it
out in the open air and study its
reclamation possibilities.
Everything is going to be hard
to replace in 1943, end you can
brighten up and protect furnish
ings at one and the same time, for
paint saves the surface and all
that's underneath. With homes
being lived in more than ever
during these gasless days, we
need to make them more livable
and cheer? with color.
Brighten up with paint and
saving the hundred and one home
furnishings that can’t be replaced
is the theme of a 32-page home
