I., the so- called "carnation ; In the spring of 1920, he dropped into our New York Office with a mutual friend, who was an old customer of ours. Mr. Neus wanted a figure on the materials for an Iron Frame house 50x150 feet. In comparing our figures w^ith others, he found they were not the lowest. But when he carefully compared our houses, and equally carefully considered our reputa- tion for sound practice and pleasant dealing, »e gave us th e order. Evidently, he found both our house and our dealings lived up to their reputation; as this year he gave us an order for materials for a 150 foot addition. Mr. Neus has told his friends that the price he paid for his house, was the price we first asked for it. Tliat our first price was also our last one. He seems to have felt that it was some satis- faction to know that anyone could get the materials at the same price, but no one could get them for less. We are not out to get all the business there is to be had, on a pure price basis.

One of our oldest customers summed it up years ago, w^hen he said: "I always can de- pend on depending on ; If you are considering a dependable house built by a firm, and for a price, you can de- pend on, then let's have a talk together.
