New Method of Re-Roofing |
Easy on Purse, Time
and Temper
Ifow is your dlsposlton?
Tho acid test of whether your
temper is of the patient sort, is
tills: When you tear away the old
shingles on your house, to make
room for the new roof covering, can
you “keep sweet?" This is enough
to try one's putiefles to the utmost,
when there is a lot of reroofing to
he done. But a way has been dis
covered whereby you may reroof
your house and keep your temper
and a lot of your money too.
This is contained in a statement
Issued by Jolins-Manviile Inc., as
bestos manufacturers of New York.
"There are 18.000,000 buildings
with wooden roofs In the United
States," it is explained. "Of this
number about one-fifth are either
totally worn out or sadly in need of
repair.
"The cost and trouble of re-roof
ing,” continues tho statement,
"causes the owner of the building
to consider the question of a new
roof thoroughly before he goes
ahead. Tho large majority of
houses that need repair are hang
overs from the war time when labor
was so scarce and exponsive that
nil thought of repairing ontfs house
was temporarily abandoned.
“Now. however, people have be
gun to repair their shingle roofs in
such n way that, once having done
it, they are through with repairs
for all times. And the strange part
of it is that this method of re-roof
ing for the last time Is really a
cheaper, easier and more satisfac
tory way all around, than any me
thod that has heretofore been de
vised.
"This new method Is simply to
lay asbestos shingles over the old
wooden ones without going to the
trouble and expense of tearipg
them away.
"Have you ever put a new roof on
your house by the old method? -If
you liavo'you have probably never
forgotten the experience. You re
member bow it was done; the
wreckers mounted up to your roof
tools in hand, and began tearing
away the shingles. They fell over
the eaves of the house down on the
grass shrubbery and lawn, and a
line cloud of dust and soot sifted
Into the upper rooms of your house,
covering the furnishings and turn
ing your temper upside down. And
with the perversity of Nature it is
probable a rain storm came up just
at the Inopportune moment and
caught you with your roof oft.
"When things were finally finish
ed up, you paid twice for the Job.
once for tearing off the old roof
and ngain for putting on the new.
"Now this annoyance, risk and
expense, it lias been found by ac
tual test, can be avoided by simply
laying nßbestos shingles over the
roof. Asbestos shingles are so
made that, whether the old roof is
wood, rag-felt or asphalt shingles,
they ran be laid immediately on
top of them at considerably less ex
pense than would be the case if
they had to be torn away.
‘The result is better all-around
because the old shingle roof forms
a splendid Insulation for a house
nnd serves to make it cooler in
summer and warmer !h winter.
Tho additional weight of the asbes
tos shingles Is usually not sufficient
to require any additional supports
to the roof. Even if the roof tim
bers are old and weak nnd some
bracing has to be Installed, the ex
pense Is comparatively
And when the asbestos shingles nr P
nailed securely on. the old shingles
are held firmly In place, nnd you
hnv* accomplished this soomlnplv
dlsnprccnbla Job of re-roofin* at
]c*n trouble ami expense than was
dreamed of aome years npo.’V

In and Around Augusta
(By A. W. WIMBERLY)
The Augusta Undertaking Estab
lishment opened its doors for busi
ness last Wednesday morning. It
is the youngest business of its kind
in Augusta. The place of business
is at 827 streets, where
an ideal funeral home has been
provided. On the first floor enter
ing on Gwinnett street is a well
appointed waiting room. Directly
in the rear of this is a chapel with
complete arrangements for the
conduct of funaral services. West
of this on the summer street side
is a store room, where is shown as
fine a line of caskets as ever
brought to this city, together with
a »g»ealth of fine robes and other
accessories. Immediately north of
the chapel is t)ie dead house, and
in the rear of this is the work room
where the subjects are made ready.
Nothing necessary to the furnish
ing the people first-class service
has been overlooked and with an
eye single to the making of the
sorrows of bereaved as light a*
possible. The establishment threw
open its doors for business last
Wednesday and on Thursday had
its first funeral, which they hand'ed
as smoothly as veterans who had
been in the business for years. A.
M. Sherill, the president of the
establishment is most popular
among thd masses of colored people.
He has always found his place,
among them and his friends are
numbered by the number of hla
acquaintances. These is Ample
means behind the business, and it
starts out under the most favorab'e
auspices their advertisement ap
peaears ill this lssno of the Herald
and I am glad to commend the Au
gusta Undertaking Establishment
to the colored citizens of this city,
as being In every way prepared to
furnish them the very bj.u service
and wonhv of their literal support.
A part of their equipment is a new
grey he a' se, th s latest design, and

Augusta, and a nifty call wagon, all

Madame Jessie Leverett, of 1400
Rozelle street, was one of the thres
automobile prize winners at the re
cent Eagles Circus held here. This *
good colored woman was not even
at the circus when the drawing took
place. A pretty little bright-eyed
white girl drew the lucky number,
and the people in charge promptly
notified the winner. This woman
evidenced good judgment and pre
ferred money instead of an auto
mobile. so the Eagles gave her
S3OO. This incident evidences ths
fact that the representatives of tha
great order of Eagles in Augusta
may be depended upon to deal fair
ly with the colored citizens and as
far as in their power lies see to it
that they are fairly dealt with. And
that’s the Augusta spirit. One color
ed brother was so highly elated
over the awarding of the car to
this colored woman he declared: "If
I could get a lot of them Eagles
on the school board the negroes
would get a decent school building
in this city.” The crowd yelled ap
proval of the sentiment expressed.

Coolidge administration as it deals
with the colored people. He shows
that Mr. Wilson treated the color
ed people with more consideration
than have Harding and Coolldge.
The arraignment is high-class, but
overwhelming in bringing facts.
The negro who can vote for Mr.
Coolidge after reading and digest
ing Dr. Miller’s arraignment must
have a stomach akin to that of the
birds whifh preside over the city’s
garbage dump.
