Winter
. when it's cozy and
warm indoors
Cold weather is fine and healthful outside !
But drafty, chilly houses are dangerous for little
folks, and uncomfortable for grown-ups. Now's
the time to modernize your, home for winter 1.
We're experienced in making homes snug and
winter-tight, and can make estimates on some
surprisingly economical ways to cut out drafts
and cut down fuel bills.
Insulation might be what that cold room really
needs or storm doors and windows we know
all the modern ways of keeping Jack Frost out
side where he belongs. And our estimates will
be decidedly worth while.

N. C. Leads Southern 1
States Industrially
The July 28, 1937, issue of the
News Letter of the University of
North Carolina gives the following
interesting industrial facts about
North Carolina that appeared in a
publication of the North Carolina
department of conservation and de
velopment, Raleigh :
"Industrially, North Carolina leads
the South in the number of wage
earners, wages paid, and value add
ed to raw materials by manufactur
ing processes. The state , contains
the largest towel factory, overall
plant, hosiery mill, cordage and
twine mill, hand-weaving establish
ment, denim mill, . damask mill and
underwear plant in the country;
the second largest aluminum re
duction plant ; and among the larg
est pulp paper and rayon mills.
"North Carolina is first among
the states in the value of manu
factured tobacco, producing about
70 per cent of the cigarettes in the
country. The state produces more
wooden bed room and dining room
furniture than any other state and
ranks sixth in the output of all
furniture.
"No state in the South possesses
a greater abundance and variety of
opportunities for industrial develop
ment. ".In 1935 North Carolina ranked
fourth in the total capacity of
hydro-electric power, being exceed
ed only by New York, California,
and Washington, and ranked ninth
in the total capacity in kilowatts,
including power produced by water,
steam, internal combustion, and by
combinations."
