N THE LONG RUN there is no concealment for
, low grade products. Eventually the defects of
poor workmanship or of improper materials
. must come to light, resulting in a rapid depre-
ciation which is in itself an item of expense that
must be considered.
There are, perhaps, instances where anything
Will do as long as it is cheap, but in building it is
a rare case indeed where it would not be better
economy to increase theoriginal investment a little
and build with some thought beyond the present.
