Gentlemen:—In the construction of mÿ own home in Glencoe, 111., the use of your Bishopric as under-flooring, outside sheathing and as. roof boarding, was very satisfactory. As under-flooring, particularly in the first floor, it works well as a preventative agaipst basement dust getting into the lining rooms above; as sheajh> ing, it insures closed air spaces in the outside walls, and as roof boarding, its economy in cost was a big factor. As I was building in the early spring I was doubtful as to the effect rain might cause, but ten or twelve rain storms seemed to have no effect on its efficiency.
Whère possible, I am advocating the use of Bishopric, both as I used it and as a support for plaster.
.Yours very truly,
GEORGE W. KLEWER, Architect.

T is of great importance in the construction of the house of stucco to provide for the preservation of its beauty, its
resistance against fire, vermin and decay, its insulation against change of temperature and dampness. Bishopric stucco and plaster base in construction and in use, offers the possibilities of this insurance.
We have prepared “Bishopric For All Time and Clime,” a booklet for you, containing facts and figures, and illustrated with photographs of beautiful houses built with Bishopric stucco, plaster and sheathing units. Ask for it.
