roof of clay tiles will be as color
full and attractive as on the day 1t
was applied.
"Clay tiles are not only weather
proof and fire-proof, but being non
conductors of heat and cold they add
greatly to comfort and general health.
A roof of these tiles will keep the
house cooler in summer and warmer
in winter. and enable you to make an
appreciable saving in heating bills.
"The product of our modern plants
represents the perfection of scientific
tile-making. Each and every detail is
under the supervision Of an expert
enced artisan. Thus the result is the
judicious choice of materials, suitable
blending. exact firing. proper glazing
the essentials in tiles of enduring
quality and beauty"
MANY CONTRACTS.
According TO Mr.. Parker, Ruskin
was not unmindful of the FORGING
when he said: Consider the differ
ence between the expressions, beneath
my roof and within my walls and
you will see how important a part of
the house the roof must always be
to the mind, as well as to the eye."
At the present time Mr.. Parker has
the roofing contracts for the follow
ing: City Auditorium, City Museum,
Westmoorland College. Showers resi-
dence, Harrison residence, r. c. Frost
residence in this city. He also has
the contract for the roofs on Villa
Maria College, Brownsville South
Texas Teachers College and High
School in Kingsville. one of the largest
tar and gravel roofs in southwest
Texas. on the Port Development in
Corpus Christi.
Mr.. Parker says that while we had
every reason to anticipate a large
volume of business, our fall business
hus far has been exceedingly crafty
ing, surprising our highest expecta-
lions. Every indication points to the |
act that December will be one of the |
argest months in the history of our
business"

ROOF CAN MAKE OR MAR
ATTRACTIYENESS OF HOME

| There was a time when the roof was
looked upon as nothing more than a
shelter from the elements. but today
it is regarded as one of the first essen
tials of good architectural style. More
and more its form and material are re-
ceiving the best thought of the fore
most architects.
When you consider that the roof
never escapes critical observation, the
Importance of making it attractive is
quite apparent. Much more pleasure
and comfort can be derived from a
home that draws favorable comment
than from one which is the subject
of adverse criticism.
According to Il. NJ. Parker Of the
Parker Roofing Company. anyone who
wishes his roof to be thing of beauty,
thereby increasing pleasure and pride
in the home and enhancing its selling
value. clay roofing tile is a material
which will yield this satisfaction per-
manently and also afford everlasting
protection from fire and the elements.
CHARACTER IN HOME.
The credit for the introduction of
roofing tiles into this country belongs
to the old Spanish padres, who
brought the knowledge of tile making
TO the Pacific coast about the middle
of the eighteenth century. 1t was not
until 1875 that the first modern
American tile plant was established
says Mr.. Parker.
Mr.. Parker further states that
much of the character of any dwell
ing is in its roof, and from the stand
point of architectural beauty. clay
roofing tiles have all advantage.
Clay tiles defy time. Once properly
applied, they afford enduring and alb
solute protection from the elements.
Not only are these tiles absolutely |
unaffected by even the most severe |
changes. but they are fireproof as
we'll. They never require the aid of |
stain, paint or other artifice to re-
ain their original beauty.
Long after roofs Of other materials
have become faded and shabby, al

for the home, beoe and other bedroom
furniture, are now made OF sheet
metal.
FOR MODERN OFFICE.
Because of its fire-resistive quail
ties, it's great strength with light
weight and economy of space. its con-
structiOnal advantages and its SAM
tary cleanliness, sheet metal is the
preferred material for shelving for
libraries, stores, restaurants, hospitals.
office vaults. safety deposit vaults
and stockrooms, also for lockers for
offices, factories, hotels. gymnasiums
and clubs. Library. shop and office
trucks are now made of sheet steel
for the same reason.
Steel ceilings are so generally used
IN stores, offices, moving picture
theaters and other buildings that their
advantages are familiar to all. They
are put in place at small cost, and
are fire-proof and handsome and long
wearing. They are made in deSgns
and patterns of the highest artistic
merit and it is easy TO keep them al
ways clean and sanitary merely BY
wiping with a damp cloth.
tons OF sheet metal, as with all con-
struction work, the greatest cost is
labor. Nearly everyone knows that
sheets are made either plain or gal
vanized, flat or corrugated, and in
many thicknesses.
Sheet metal is sold by gauge, which
means the thickness Of the sheet.

SHEET METAL EMPLOYED
IN EVERY WALK OF LIFE

The San Antonio Sheet Metal Con-
| tractors Association is familiar with
every use of sheet metal. Below are
outlined some of the uses Of this i'm
portant product. Most people do not
realize the many different advantages
of sheet metal.
In the modern restaurant. sheet
metal is largely used because of its
sanitary cleanliness. Its smooth and
unbroken surface has no cracks or
crevices for Judgment of dirt. 1t is
highly fire-resistive. For steam tables.
ventilating equipment. flour bins,
splashers for ranges and work tables.
for refrigerators. water tanks and
coolers and many other uses, il is IN
equalled.
VITAL IN HOTEL.
Coated with slistening snow-white
enamel. it provides table tops which
can be kept always clean and shining
merely by wiping them off with a
damp cloth. Nickel-plated. it forms
coffee urns and other equipment of
the modern restaurant.
The modern hotel could hardly op-
crate without sheet metal. Heating.
ventilating, air washing. refrigerating
and ice making equipment is largely
made Of it. In the kitchen it serves
the same uses as in the modern res
tsurant.
With sheet metal, as with any other
material, it is poor economy to buy
a lighter weight or cheaper quality
than will give maximum service for
the purpose intended.
