Don’t Forget the Date, Saturday, March 11th conrr.GwT t«i« •EMfiRAk ROOTIHO tiro. CO. Efficiency built the Panama Canal, after inefficiency failed. The efficiency of the Panama Canal doubled the effective ness of the U. S. Navy without adding a ship to it. It took over 8,000 miles out of the trip from New York to San Francisco and changed the highway between London and Australia from Suez to Panama. Efficiency insures against lost motion—it produces the ut most service out of equipment and yields the finest product, at the least cost. Certain-teed Roofing is an efficiency product Every advantage that men, money and machinery can offer is used to increase the production, maintain the quality and lower the cost. Each of the General’s enormous mills is advantageously located to serve the ends of efficient manufacture and quick distribution. Each is equipped with the most up-to-date machinery. Raw materials are purchased in enormous quantities and far ahead of the needs of manufacturing, thus guarding against increased cost due to idle machinery. This also insures favorable buying, and the pick of the market. Expert chemists at each mill are employed to select and blend the asphalts, and every roll of CERTAIN-TEED is made under their watchful care. CERTAIN-TEED resists the drying-out process so destructive to ordinary roofing, because the felt is thoroughly saturated with a blend of soft asphalts, prepared under the formula of the General s board of expert chemists. It is then coated with a blend of harder asphalts, which keeps the inner saturation soft. This makes a roofing more pliable, and more impervious to the elements than the harder, drier kind. CERTAIN-TEED is made in rolls; also in slate-surfaced shingles. There is a type of CERTAIN TEED for every kind of building, with flat or pitched roofs, from the largest sky-scraper to the smallest residence or out-building. CERTAIN-TEED is guaranteed for 5, 10 or 15 years, according to ply (1, 2 or 3). Experience proves that it lasts longer.
