Simply or Elaborate
Artistic beauty should be a char
acteristic of every Memorial. But
that does not mean that all Mem
orials should be expensive, A
chastely simple design is often
quite as effective as one that is
elaborately ornate. We should
be glad of an opportunity to show
you our Book of Designs, wherein
are featured Memorials of all types,
Sand Blast where sand blast should
be used, Pneumatic tools used
where they should be used. Buy
your Memorials from the Wing
ham Memorial Shop, where you
getthe better granites, the better
polish and finish, the better class
of carving and lettering for less
money. You can save all Outside
High Pressure Salesmen’s long
distance travelling and selling ex
penses, long distance hauling and
trucking and setting expenses and
the^ high overhead expenses by
buying your memorials from us.
