INDIANA LIMESTONE

The NATION'S BUILDING STONE

Interesting Facts About INDIANA LIMESTONE

Number Three

Almost two-thirds of the building stone of the nation is obtained from the Indiana Limestone district each year. 30,000 carloads of stone annually are sent across the continent to be used in erecting schools, colleges, churches, office buildings, State Capitols, hotels, memorial buildings, homes. This is equivalent to 12,000,000 cubic feet of stone, or 2,400,000,000 pounds.

In the house illustrated, rock-faced Indiana Limestone was used, laid up as a random ashlar over a backing of hollow tile. The cost of the stone set in the wall was $3,000

Build your home of Indiana Limestone and it will be beautiful with the subdued color-tones and strong with the strength that only natural stone can have.

No other building material has the same loveliness of coloring and texture, and the same extreme durability. Its cost is only slightly in excess of that of less durable material.

to be one of the finest collections of its kind to

author of "Now It Can Be Told"

Presents an arresting picture of the world today

in

TEN YEARS AFTER

With the brilliance of the greatest of living journalists and with the sincerity of a witness and prophet, Philip Gibbs paints in this book the world that was, the agony it went through, and the things we must face if we are to save the future. Particularly valuable is his analysis of the factors that menace present and future. No detail escapes him, from the Dawes Report to the Ku Klux Klan; both the countries of Europe and America are held in his world-view. Here is no confusing clutter of day-by-day journalism, but a perspective on all the difficult problems the world faces today. Yet there is something beyond this lucidity and grasp; there is the profound emotion, the passion for truth that so distinguished "The Middle of the Road" and "Now It Can Be Told."

BUCOLIC BEATITUDES

THE

By RUSTICUS

'HE peace and charm of rural life were never more engagingly described than in this human, wise little book. Rusticus, kindly observer and critic of nature, takes you about his country home, where you make the acquaintance of the farm folk of whom he is justly proud: Cerberus, oneeyed dog and perfect companion; the pig, "the humorist of the farm, an incorrigible wag and nature's most perfect clown"; The Field Marshal of the poultry yard, "the bird who never has had and never will have an 'inferiority complex' "; the tranquil cow, "a bovine ruminant in three letters." and the Incomparable One, who understands and loves them all. A book of whimsical wit and philosophy that every essay-lover will want to read aloud.

Charmingly illustrated. $1.50

It has been suggested that an advance copy of the puzzle on the
opposite page must have found its way to Mr. Dawes's room in the
Hotel Willard on a certain disastrous afternoon some three weeks
ago. Try it yourself and see how readily it might beguile anyone
who, like the Vice President or the average Living Age reader, is
thoroughly posted on every angle of politics, literature, geography,
and culture throughout the length and breadth of the civilized world.
