HE WHO USES CYPRESS BUILDS BUT ONCE
You know the ancient fame of CYPRESS but do you know its uses _today_, and their significance to _you_?
CYPRESS is _the_ wood of Scriptural history, and of romance; CYPRESS was the mystic wood of mythology—and it was the reliance of the sturdy builders of early America; CYPRESS always has been a magnet for those who have wrought sentiment and beauty into useful things—and CYPRESS is _today_ the _staple wood_ of the hard-headed calculating buyer who seeks the most _lasting_ values for his lumber-money.
This concerns _YOU_—if you like to avoid repair bills on anything made of wood.
It was of CYPRESS, according to Pliny, that the famous statue of Jupiter was carved; it existed more than six centuries without a sign of decay.
The historic Gates of Constantinople were of CYPRESS; they were on duty for eleven centuries without a furlough.
The CYPRESS doors of ancient St. Peter’s, in Rome, were in a state of perfect preservation when removed by Eugenius IV; they had been swinging on the faithful for twelve centuries.
The only Egyptian mummies that survive intact and unblemished are those whose executors filed them in CYPRESS receptacles.
To bring the record nearer home—there was Thomas Lyon, who in 1640 built him a house in Greenwich, Connecticut. He put CYPRESS shingles on its roof and sides. With no exterior repairs of consequence, this house is today occupied as a residence.
THIS WAS AMERICAN CYPRESS—the kind we own and cut and are selling you.
CYPRESS is in truth “the wood eternal.” He who uses Cypress builds but once.
If you are putting up a palace or a pasture-fence, and want to build it “for keeps”—USE CYPRESS.
There is a liberal education (and a wonderful INVESTMENT value for you) in the CYPRESS advertising—and in the detailed information and reliable counsel to be had promptly, WITHOUT COST, if you will WRITE US YOUR OWN NEEDS (big or little), and ASK YOUR OWN QUESTIONS of the “All-round Helps Department” of the
Southern Cypress Manufacturers’ Association 1219 HIBERNIA BANK BUILDING, NEW ORLEANS, LA.
Probably your lumber man sells CYPRESS; if not, _WRITE US_, and we will tell you the dealer handiest to you

RED GUM
AMERICA’S FINEST HARDWOOD
Three years ago the architect or builder would have had a hard time to find any building of importance in the United States in which the owner had been courageous enough to use RED GUM trim.
Today there are thousands of apartment houses, banks, hotels, office buildings and fine residences from New York to Frisco in which RED GUM has been deliberately chosen for the trim because of its great beauty and _entire practicability_.
RED GUM is no longer a competing wood for luxurious interiors.
RED GUM is now _FIRST CHOICE_ with people of _selective taste_.
_SAP_ GUM
Where White Enamel trim is required, SAP GUM is _the ideal material_. Not only does it _take_ and _hold_ white enamel _better than any other wood_, but it is possible to get good SAP GUM cheaper than any other wood hitherto used for white enamel woodwork.
SAP GUM presents remarkable qualities where moderate priced trim of good appearance is desired. Another field in which SAP GUM has reached supremacy is in the manufacture of porch columns.
SAP GUM takes stains and wood dyes beautifully, and all the popular finishes are easily reproduced in SAP GUM.
_Write any firm below for Samples of Red Gum and Sap Gum both rough and finished, and for market prices of selected Gum Lumber._
