'•il 3 sai''JP:,'' The foundation is not the most important thing True, you can't have a good barn without a good foundation, but don't forget either that the roof has to stand most of the punishment. Upon it falls the burden of resisting the destructive influences of weather and changing seasons. Now, ,the question is "Where am I going to find a roof which will meet these conditions?" Certainly not in wooden shingles whichhave rapidly deteriorated during' the past few years. Not in anything so perishable as wood, nor yet iron, which lets in, driving rain, but rather in a permanent mineral composition such as Brantford. Roofing. Now, let us look ata section of Brantford Roofing. First, you notice it has a pure, long -fibred felt base. This ,is thoroughly saturated with a filler coat of asphalt or mineral pitch. Then it is given another coat. Finally, the, surface is thickly covered with crushed slate. You can imagine what a job rain, snow, fire or heat would have penetrating a roof like that. As for comparing rantford Nature's Water- e•oof ing e proofing with shingles on the score of permanency, or protection, or appearance, or even economy, there is no comparison.' You put a Brantford Roof on once, and it will last as long as the building; it will always look well and it will never need repairing. •Why not let us send you samples, also a copy of our booklet which explains how Iirandord Roofing rs always on the job?' Or, if you will give us the dimensions of your barn or house roof we will gladly submit estimates without charge or obligation.

So many peri - p10 write wanting particulars of friends who hii.te been killed and itsomelimes takes a ,lot of time getting this, but I know how much it paeans to relatives, My tune seems to be spent hi doing a multitude of -little things that do not make .a spectacular show, bull things that I thinb. are worth while and things that mean some th'ng; to ,the contentm et; Oleo: - fulness and efficiency o'i the men. One example 'will suffice. A low battalions of the 1st division who have been tried 111 many battles, were detaliled to make a charge, Amongst these were the 13th and lath .Bat s, the two to which I am attached and amongst whom I have made a host of friends. 1 shalt never forget the night they went in to make the charge. It was Sunday. I had sbeet the day amongst the. men getting them to write a. letter or card to loved ones; for both thea', and I. knewthat for many it would be their last message OM earth, Many of thein gave inc Che address of friends to Whom Ui write "if any- th ng happened,'• es they put it. Many left their ,money or ratter valuables with me. Since then it has been my sad task to send many el these to friends in Can- ada, and the Old Country. It is hard to write to friends and tell them of the death of their rela- tives in battle. So 'many write back for particulars,, which are often too horribl.o to give. 1 lost some of the best friends that I had amongst the officers. When one is standing under the deadly fire of the German foe and knows not what a few' intnnies may bring forth he thanks 'Heaven for the comrades about hum and it does not matter whether they are Pro- testant, Catholic or Tow.
