The Exeter Advocate, 1915-6-3, Page 611 - • Boats • Stood th A M ES HOLD EN McCREADY LIMITED, XI Canada's largest shoe manufacturers, sup- plied, within thirty-three days, 32,217 pairs of leather ankle bouts and 30,000 pairs of canvas shoes for the outfitting of the First Canadian Contingent, the largest quantity supplied by any manufacturer. These boots were worn by our soldiers on active service both ia this country and in the training eamps in England. They were sub- jected w the most severe usage that boots could be subjected to. They travelled over rough roads and smooth. They waded through mud and through slush past all description. They were soaked by the never -ceasing rains of an abnormally wet English winter. 4,They were baked on hot stoves, grilled on steam radiators and roasted before open Ares. Yet, THEY STOOD THE TEST. Out of the entire 32,217 mdre. of leather boots supplied by this company only a singe pair was shown to be open to eritieisin 'when the Government enquiry was Math' six months later. Expects employed by the Government exam- ined 3,24.1 pairs mid 3.1S odd vloote made by various manufacturere. Among the number were found only seven pairs of boot e of Ames Holden McCready manufacture, of whieb five were found to be repairable, one 'riair unreeair- able, flail ONE PAIR HAD A SOLE UNDER GAUGE. The best proof of the durability and service- ability iY1 the Ames Holden McCready boote, hoe i-wer, was afforded by the sworn state- ments of soldiers who had worn these boots conetantiy from the rime they were iesued in Sep:ember. 14..414, right threenth to Mari. lel.

The appointment of a Parliamentary Committee and the official enquiry followed. It occupied sev- eral weeks' time. The Cenunittee stopped at nothing in their efforts to get at all the facts. This Company purchased the best leather and supplies available in Canada and spared ma expense in manufacturing the boots. All our lavoices, and Shop and manufacturing records were produced before the Parliamentary Com- mittee for their inspection and information. We had nothing to hide and were proud of the boots whiell were furnished to the Government. THE AME HOLDEN McCREADY BOOTS CAME Ot'T OF THE ORDEAL UNSCATHED. The Committee reported to Parliament that the hoots supplied by this company substan-* flatly complied with the sample, that no paper or other fraudulent substances bad been em- ployed in their manufacture and that all (*beiges involving, the integrity of this company or of the boots supplied by them had been abundantly* disproven by the si.orn evidence taken before the Committee. The report, which was adopted by Perna - trent, was A COMPLETE \INDICATION FOR AMES HOLDEN McCREADY LIMITED. * * * * In bringing these facts prominently before the people of the Dominion, Ames Holden McCready Limited are actuated by the desire not ugly to proteet their own good name whicb needs no vindication with the thousands of Canadians who are familiar with this come 'any and its products — but also that of a notable and important Canadian industry, which has been unwarrantably aspersed. kelEADY UNITED MONTREAL - TORONTO. - • WINNIPEG - ST.

The Gollinge were new people of untold wealth. eo everyone eaid. who had started a. diamond eom- pany under the beet auspices, with an enormous capitalization, and the best names on the board. Mr. Golling was an Afrikander pure and simple, but two or three years ago, had ma.rried the daugh- ter of an impecunious baronet, evho after living at cape Town for three years had, as it were, lost her :claim on British pres- tige as baronete daughter, and return- ed in new garb as the wife of million- aire. and had to have a now beginning.
