This is Our Poli.y

This is uihat we have learned from experience about a house, and tbis bas become our policy: To build the best possible house for the money. To fotego and leave out the frills and gadgets that just dress up a home but that have no inrinsic value and actually make for additional upkeep.

!(e have learned that in Southem California the nights are damp and that the best way to build a house is to have it raised off the ground so that there is an insulated air space betwe€n the floor of the house and the eanh. To build with a sub-floor' of wood and a hardwood floor above costs more money,than a concrete slab, but.is it our opinion that it is better consffuction, and that's how we will build.

I(e have learned that a family grows, and while parents and children are young it may be satisfactorv to eag in the kitchen. But lacer on a definite a dining area is a nEcessity and our policy is to build each home with a dining room.

Ife have learned that the kitchen best serves its purpose when it is used for the preparation of food and that a separate room is required for laundry work. I7e will continue to build all our houses with a kitchen and a service room.

Ifle have learned that a plaster house is safer and more durable than a house built with dry wall, and although more expensive, we will continue to build with plaster.

S/e havl learned that the best materiais available are best in the long run. Cast iron bathtubs are better than light steel plumbing fixtures and cedar shingle roofs are better than composition roofs. Although these features are more expensive, we will continue to build with the best.

I7e have learned from long experience that the house we deliver should look, and should be, better than the house we show as a model. I7e shall continue our successful policy of showing you what you will get and then giving you a house that is even better.
