The Wingham Advance-Times, 1943-05-06, Page 3ADDED home security has always been one of the foremost objectives of Brantford Roofing's production . .. extra protection against the ravages of fire, time and weather. But, as this soldier typifies, men who used to help Brantford Roofing build for security are out battling for it now. Because Brantford Roofing products have a petroleum base—and' oil is strategic material nowadays—the supply of Brantford Roofing for houses is limited. Any quantities available for civilian use are rationed to dealers, to ensure an equitable share in each community. To stretch raw materials as far as possible, all Brantford Roofing lines have been standardized on a minimum range of styles and colours. If you are faced with roofing problems, ask your Brantford Roofing dealer to assist you. He will help you make your present roof last longer and effect urgent repairs with a minimum of new material. He will also help you plan now for a completely renovated roof after victory. ntford f Mr. Brown, who is President of the Central Dumfries Farmers' Club, has competed in 37 plowing matches in the last three years. In these 37 contests he has won 34 First Prizes and 3 Second Prizes. "Bob" Brown bought Victory Bonds in the First, Second and Third Victory Loans, and has placed his order for Bonds for the Fourth Victory Loan to the limit of his capacity. When Mr. Brown urges others to buy Victory Bonds his recommend- Etion carries weight for he backs his words with action. ROBERT G. BROWN, R.R.

He knows farmers' problems. Here is what Bob Brown says about Victory Bonds: "If Canadians were asked to give money to help to win the war, we would not be asked to make a big sacrifice. Some are giving their lives. But we are asked to lend money. I am sure that farmers throughout Canada will be glad to lend money to their country, for like all other Canadians, they know we must do all we can to help. "There is a practical reason for buying Victory Bonds, too. The money we lend to Canada now, to help win the war, will be ours to use as we please after the war ,has been won. Ready cash will be handy to have when we will want to replace farm equipment that is wearing out now. A farmer can always find a use for savings, and there is no better way to save than by investing all we can in Victory Bonds." 'Sack the Attack!" 02-1.
