BECAUSE '

Ours is the only plant on Prince Edward Island equipped with Polishing Machinl Illll Pneumatic Tools of the most modern type for cutting and carving. Ono qulllﬁed tradesman. with the aid of lhls equipment, can turn out more ﬁnished work thnn threo men using the old hand tools-hammer and chisel. . .

This modern equipment enables us to buy’ our stock direct from the quarries by ca! load lots. and we are thus aﬂcrded n large saving in duty, freight, etc. The rough’ ﬂock is placed in the hands of tradesmen qualiﬁed to take their place in any American chop and we might add the only tradesmen in the Province capable of creating from tho rough stone a beautiful. ﬁnished memorial. .

Our large turnover has reduced our selling cost to a minimum. We have salesmen! It la true. what up-to-dste business has not’!

l! you desire n. Monument that will stand the inlpeeti of experts we are ready to serve you. The customer wishing a small simple memorial receives tho same ﬁrst ciaI material and workmanship as those desiring one o! tho most ellbonts and costly.
