The dart stuck into a tree and he couldn't get it out. He went back the next day, and found some sticky stuff running down the tree. He star- ted• to play with it and roll it up.

They're contractors for heating equipment. Hank and Henry met when they both' worked for' a local heating contractor. Then 7 years ago they struck out on their own.

In the contracting business, if you're going to make money, you've got to know what things cost. Anti-Hatik and .Henry know that natural gas is the clean, effieient^and economical fuel for heating and water heating. Naturally the Mulders and the Oostervelds have natural gas furnaces at home.
