A Wasted Wooden Fleet
"When the United Santos entered
the war against Germany and the
cry• went up for a bridge of ships,
the Government was persuaded to
go heavily into the construction of
wooden ships," says the New York
Post.
"Sone 300 of these .vessels were
built, with an average of 3,500 tons,
the fleet costing about fifty millions
sterling. The Shipping Board has
now decided that as ships they are
worthless.
"A wooden ship - of 3,500 tons
requires practically the same crew
as a steel ship of from 5,000 to 7,000
tons, and the cargo capacity of the
wooden ship is smaller • than that of
the steel ship; consequently the
wooden ship cannot be profitably
employed in competition with the
steel ship. Although the fifty mil-
lions originally spent has been trans-
ferred to the profit and loss account
on the books of the Shipping Board,
the vessels are still an expense, as
salaries of caretaiters have to be
paid,
"Experienced men contend that the
wisest thing for the Government to
do is to tow the vessels ..out to mid-
Atlantic, sink thein, and charge the
loss to experience."

Three Destroyed
One Roof Escaped
The picture tells the story..
Mr. Offer's letter confirms the fire-
resistant qualities of
He says.
"I covered the roof of 201 Marlborough Ave., Toronto, with
Your -Asphalt Slates some time ago. This house is one of a row
of four, the remaining three were covered with Cedar shingles.
"These houses were close,to a railway track and on the night
of August 15th, 1918, these roofs caught fire from a spark from
a passing train.
"As yott can see in the picture, the roofs on three houses
were completely burned through, including the sheeting boards
and rafters. The boards and rafters on 201 were also burned
through, so that the Bre passed over and under your slates
without harming ahem in any way.
"I have rebuil t thereof's and covered them with your Asphalt
Slates since S bevelled such good proof that if the four roofs
had been covered with your slates no fire would have occurred."
And here is another letter, from G. P. Wingrove of Walsing-
ham, Ont., dated December 2nd, 1918.
ItIr. Wingrove says;
"Thehouse I live in is a large frame with dry pine rafters and
sheathing. I covered same with Brantford Roofing last May.
"On November 2.lth, at eight in the morning, we discovered
that it was all aflame inside of roof of one part, 18 x 20, with a
fine breeze fanning it. But by the use of the telephone and the
splendid fire -proof qualities of your rooting, we got the Bre out
and found spaces where the rafters and lumber were burnt out
from in under the roofing and the roofing still doing its duty of
resisting fire. Also remember this is out in the country Where
it took the.best part of half an hour for help to arrive.'"
The Inspector of the Waterloo Mutual Fire Xnsurance Com-
pany, has this to say about Mr. Wingrovn:s fire:—
"I
ire:"I inspected this risk'after the fire. It was particularly evi-
dent that the fact that the roof was covered with Brantford
Roofing kept the fire confined below the roof. 11 it had been
possible for the fire to break through I do not see how they
could have saver/ the building. As it was the loss was com-
paratively trifling."
When roofing a building, it pays to put on n fire-resistant
roof as well as a beautiful one. Brantford Asphalt Slates (indi-
vidual size shingles) and Brantford Asphalt Slab Slates (four
shingles in one) are fire-tesistant, durable, economical and
beautiful.
