S E D A N 70 Miles of Ruberoidl The illustration shows the British Empire Exhibition at Wembley, England, where 70 miles of Ru- beroid Roofing were used on more than 150 buildings. Ruberoid was selected only after the architects and contractors had conducted exhaustive tests to de termine the most suitable roofing from the standpoint of appearance, reliability, cost, and weather and fire resistance. Ruberoid was the only prepared roofing used for permanent or semi-permanent buildings, including the Fine Arts Palace, which houses an art collection of incalculable value. T h e confidence of the architects was com pletely justified when, during May, a record rainfall of 93 tons per acre deluged the Exposition and the Ruberoid Roofs kept the buildings absolutely dry. There is a Ruberoid Roofing for every building. Come in or phone us today for samples and descriptive folders. ^ SHINGLES and ROOFING “ Business is Service” HORTON - VANN HD W E. CO. 128 E.
