A MES H OL D E N McCREADY LIMITED,
Canada's largest 'shoe .manufactUrers; sup-
plied, within thirty-three days, 32,217 .pairs of
leather ankle boots and 30,000 pairs of canvas..
shoe§ 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 in this country and in the
training camps in England: They Were Sub-
jected to 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. They
were baked cin hot stoved, on, steam
radiators and roasted before open fires. Yet,
THEY STOOD THE TEST,
Out of the entire 32,217 pairs of leather
boots supplied by this company only 'a single
pair was shown to be open to criticism when
the Government enquiry was made six months
Experts employed by...the Gesfernment exam-
ined 1365 pairs and 348 odd hoots made by
various manufacturers, Among the number
were found only seven pairs of boots of Ames
Holden McCready manufacture, of which live
were found to be repairable, one pair unrepair-
able, and ONE PAIR HAD A SOLE UNDER
GAD GE.
The best proof of the durability and service-
ability of the' Ames Holden.McCready boots,
however, was afforded by, the sworn_ state-
ments of soldiers Who had worn thee() boots
constantly from the time they were 'Issued in
September, 1914, right through to March, 1915. •
They swore that they had worn the boots
through all the rough experiences at Vetoer -
tier and on Salisbury Plain and that they
had givpn excellent service throughout. Ser-
geant Nussey, of Toronto, who had served
twelve years in the British Army, appeared be-.
foto the Committee With a pair of such hoots
still on his feet and submitted them to the
committee's inspection.
The testimony of these witnesses has since

been amply corroborated by numerous reforts
and letters received from officers and soldiers
at the front all testifying to The good wearing
qualities of the Ames Holden McCready boots;
•
When the question Was tabled concerning
the quality of the Canadian Soldiersboots,
Ames Holden McCready Limited placed them-
selves IM1VIED1AT'ELY upon record, by writing'
to the Government, as desirous of having the
most thorough investigation of the matter. The
appointment of a Parliamentary Committee and
the official enquiry foliewed. It occupied sev-
eral weeks,' time. The Committee stopped at "
nothing in their efforts to get at all the facts.
This Ccimpaey purchased the beet leather
and supplies available in (3anada.and spared no
expense. in manufacturing the boots. All our
invoices, 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 which were furnished to the Government.
THE AMES HOLDEN McCREADY BOOTS
CAME OUT OF THE ORDEAL UNSCATHED.
The Committee reported to Parliament that
the boots supplied by this company substan-
tially complied with the, sample, that no paper
or other fraudulent substances hid been em-
ployed 'in their manufacture and that' all
charges involving the integrity of this company
or of the boots supplied by them had been
abundantly disproven by the sworn evidence
taken before the Committee.
The report, which was adopted by Parlia-
ment, was A COMPLETE VINDICATION 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 only to protect their own good name —
which needs no 'vindication with the thousands
of Canadians who are familiar with this com-
pany and its products -- but also that of a
notable and important Canadian industry,
which has been unwarrantably aspersed.
