LETTER TO HAROLD F. CLARK.
South Norwalk, Conn.
Dear Sir: A new word has come
into use in paint; it is strong. Strong
paint is as strong as paint can 'be.
Weak paint is not so strong
If one paint takes )0 gallons to do a
job‘ and another 15, the lo-gallon paint
is the stronger.
If one paint wears 10 years, and a11-
other 5, the 10-year paint is the strong-
er.
The strongest paint is the one that
takes least gallons and wears longest.
But do such differences exist? Yes
and greater. Dem is the strongest of
all... A jointhatdakcs 10 gallons Dcroe
takes moréflthan 20 of sonic And a job
of Davao wears several times as long
as a job- of some 1111111111.,
