It’s I delivered, put in place, used. But when you buy plumbing or heating, it’s only half bought until it’s installed. And the installation is what makes plumbing or heating well bought or poorly bought. When you buy plumbing and heating vou really buv three things—fixtures, materials, installations. If all three are not right, what you have paid for isn’t right. So, then, buy the best. And insist that it be rightly ins t &ii©cl Cheap fixtures, cheaply installed, will play tag with your lite and your work. And you can’t afford that can you? ' SHELBY PLUMBING COMPANY • ■' .-'v' TRIBUTE There is some tribute that is justifiable. The payment of taxes or the payments toward a fund lor the public good—such tributes are worthy. On the other hand— When any man deliberately squanders money— Or fails to reserve a part of his income for his future needs, he is paying tribute to folly. We have a Savings Depart ment where interest is paid on balances at the rate of four per cent, compounded each three months. Pay tribute to whom tribute is due—certainly something is due yourself.
