Efficiency built the Panama Canal, after inefficiency failed.
The efficiency of the Panama Canal doubled the effective-
ness of the U. S. Navy without adding a ship to it. It
took over 8,000 miles out of the trip from New York to
San Francisco and changed the highway between London
and Australia from Suez to Panama.
Efficiency insures against lost motion—it produces the ut-
most service out of equipment and yields the finest product, at
the least cost.

Every advantage that men, money and machinery can offer it used
to increase the production, maintain the quality and lower the cost.
Each of the General’'* .enormous mills is sdvantageously located
to serve the ends of efficient manufacture and quick distribution.
Each is equipped with the most up-to-date machinery. Raw
materials are purchased in enormous quantities and far ahead of
the needs of manufacturing, thus guarding against increased
cost due to idle machinery. This also insures favorable buying,
and the pick of the market.
Expert chemists at each mill are employed to select and blend the
asphalts, and every roll of CERTAIN-TEED is made under
their watchful care. v
CERTAIN-TEED resists the drying-out process so destructive
to ordinary roofing, because the felt is thoroughly saturated with a
blend of soft asphalts, prepared under the formula of the General's
board of expert chemists. It is then coated with a blend of harder
asphalts, which keeps the inner saturation soft. This makes a
roofing more pliable, and more impervious to the elements than
the harder, drier kind.
CERTAIN-TEED is made in rolls; also in slate-surfaced shingles.
There is a type of CERTAIN-
TEED for every kind of building,
with flat or pitched roofs, from the
largest sky-scraper to the smallest
residence or out-building.
CERTAIN-TEED is guaranteed for
5, 10 or IS years, according to ply
(1, 2 oy 3), Experience proves that
