Remodeling an old home is
a project to enter into with
caution if you want to emerge
with joy. The trick is to pro
ceed slowly, bone up on re
modeling, choose a contractor
carefully, insist on quality,
and check all work as it pro
gresses. Then you’re more
apt to be house-proud when
the work is finished.
Actually there are many
good reasons for remodeling
an older house. It often has
sturdy basic construction on
which to modernize, and the
value of the property will be
enhanced. It’s also less ex
pensive to build an addition
or make improvements than
to build a new house. And
you can stay in your own
familiar neighborhood with
out disrupting the entire
family.
Of course, there’ll be mo
ments when you wished you
hadn’t tackled the project.
About the time the plumber
drives' over your new young
shrubs, the family has eaten
out three days in a row, the
cat has disappeared, and the
aspirin-is buried boxes-deep
in the garage, you’ll be ready
to call it quits.
But if your house is basi
cally sound and you have the
help of a good contractor,
remodeling can be well worth
the effort. A contractor is
really essential unless you
are more knowledgeable about
building than most home
owners. He can help you
avoid costly mistages and
save you money in the long
run.
For example, patching’ a
leaky roof rarely saves money
since roofs wear out all over.
One leak generally means
more to come. Selecting the
right kind of roofing is an
other important factor if you
are to have the long-lasting
protection you want for your
home.
You'll find books on home
remodeling at your bookstore
or library. Magazines on the
home also offer ideas and list
product information.

Anti-Litter Symbol
A new anti-litter symbol,
designed for use by Eastman
Kodak Company, is being
offered to other companies
throughout the country.
The symbol is a trash con
tainer designed to spell the
words “Litter Here.”
The objective of the mes
sage is simple—a plan for
everyone to use a trash con
tainer for litter.
Gerald B. Zornow, Kodak’s
president, said, "We are not
trademarking the design and
will be happy to have others
use it.”
The symbol will be used as
a repeated design on wrap
material for most varieties
of Kodak film.
