Hardwood Paneled lnteriors Now Possible At Low Cost

"One of the finest wood products that I have ever seen is 'Carstenite,' made by the Algoma Plywood & Veneer Company of Algoma, Wisconsin," said lfomer Maris of the Maris Plywood Company, San Fran,cis,co, exclusive Northern California distributor forthis material recently.

"'Carstenite' is made from hardwood veneer glued under hot-plate pro,cess with phenol resin to a hardwood fibre back, making it 1@ per cent waterproof.

"It is available in more than 60 varieties of hardwood fa,ces, including gray harewood, tigerwood, zebrawood, curly red birch, bird's-eye maple, teak, French walnut, avodire, prima vera, bubinga, etc.

- "A job in whi,ch tigerwood 'Carstenite' was used that has attracted a lot of attention and called forth much favorable comment is the new automobile display room of the J. tr. French Company, on Van Ness Avenue, San Francisco.

"Any desired paneling or wainscoting effect may be obtained with 'Carstenite,' which brings the ,cost of fine wood interiors within the price range of economical wall construction. Finishing is extremely simple. These panels may be given a lacquer, varnish, shellac or wax treatment, or they may be given a water stain without danger of opening the face joints or endangering the glue bond."
