P Write, call, «r • Ultphomt. Roofs of Rock! -for every building old or new AROOF of asbestos is a roof, of rock because ^ asbestos actually is rock. Thus, a roof of asbestos has all the enduring qualities which have enabled structures of rock to withstand the storms and stresses of centuries. Fire protection, too. For asbestos, in addition to being immune to the ordinary forces of rot or decay is absolutely fireproof. Roofs of Johns- Manville Asbestos entitle owners to base insurance rates, because Underwriters' tests have proved them entitled to the best classifications. Your pocketbook, too, is safeguarded. A roof of Johns-Manville Asbestos never needs painting. It needs no surfacing to protect it, for the asbestos of which it is formed is all the protection necessary* Write, call, or telephone us for particulars regarding a Johns-Manville roof for any sort of building.
