The shingles are put on so that
they overlap, with the result that
the nails used in securing them to
the roof deck or to the old shingles
are completely covered. Each nail
penetrates the covered portions of
two shingles. and one nail provides

Since everybody seems interested
in wood -paneled walls and beautiful
wood trim these days. a word of ad-
vice about caring for these wooden
surfaces of room with the same
attention and conscientiousness as
you care for your fine furniture is
not amiss. beautifully grained wood

deserves the same treatment as
lovely chairs and tables. In other

to preserve the markings for full
view and to give rich luster.
There is new wax we have Just
been trying out which responds so
quickly to rubbing that you could
do fireplace mantel and paneled
walls of average size in about half

and the limit control. We have
just been looking at line Of con-
trolls which do the thinking for your

body knows about. We paid more
attention to the stoker timer, the
device that operates the stoker just
enough to maintain the fire during
mild weather, even though the ther-
mostat does not call for heat. With
out such control, when your house
WAS warm enough the ire might 60

which shuts down the stoker in the
event the furnace or boiler becomes
overheated before the room tenn
perature reaches the degree set on
the thermostat. This control Is par
ticularly necessary in night setback
operation, for In the morning when
the furnace has to deliver a lot of
heat all at once it might go to work
too frenziedly. The limit control IL

briefly, from time to time, to catch

The company making these con-

a manual reset switch. With the

Basement Still Held Need
Despite Compact Machines

Now that heating plants are neatly
compact, and laundry tubs are not
needed with the diminutive new style
washers, there is added argument in
favor of ground-1oor service room
for such facilities, thus dispensing
with a basement.
Unquestionably, such an arrange
ment will save many tiring trips
down and up stairs. However, the
construction economy may be a bit
disappointing. The house must still
have a foundation and, in regions
subject to severe freezing, its depth
should be within few feet of that
required for basement. A service
room complicates the first-foor ar
tangement and appreciably increases
the cost of the house by enlarging its
area.
A good basement is worth the diff
ference in COST The compactness of
the modern home leaves hardly any
other place for children to romp or
for a recreation room. A basement
is far more desirable and handler
than an attic for such purposes.

Attention! It's reroofing time. If
you have been thinking about put
ting new top on your house, better
get busy before really harsh weather
sets in. Not only is fall the easiest
season of the year in which to
work, but new roof now will mean
a winter of snugger comfort inside
your house and complete weather
protection outside.
Putting new layer of shingles
on top of the worn singles means a
new roof with little or no nuisance.
You can live in your house comfort
ably while the re-roofing is going
on. No need to rip off old shingles
and litter your lawns and walks with
rusty old nails, nor to gamble with
the weather with few days of
"toplessness' for your home
We have been hearing about some
new asphalt shingles with virtues
that lend themselves especially to
reroof1ng. First, they have a fold
under locking device that fastens
each shingle to the adjoining one
invisibly and securely. Secondly,
each shingle has drip edge con-
sisting of diagonal back lines which
divert water as it falls on the roof
away from the between shingle
laps, the place where most leaks
develop. Third, the bottom or under
side of the shingle has coating
which tends to cause the shingles to
stick together after application, thus
increasing the solidness of the roof
as whole.
The shingles are waterproof and
flre-resistant because they are made
OF felt saturated with hot asphalt,
coated on both sides with a spe-
cial film that resists hardening and
cracking and cements mineral gran
ules firmly in place in spite of tenn
perature changes. The kind of as
phalt used is particularly adhesive
and cohesive, which means the coat

exposed to the air for half a minute,
use clean cloth to rub it up. That S
all.
Future applications can go on
right over the old one, without re-
washing. The wax has cleaning prop
critics of its own. II you have a new
wall, or new furniture, you can put
the wax on without washing, to help
preserve the surface.
This wax goes over all kinds of
wood, and also bronze. leather and
marble. 1t Is waterproof; drops
spattered on it stay on top until
wiped of, then a little rubbing
brings back the luster. 1t can be
used for automobiles, too.
Some persons object to the odor
OF wax, as such. For this reason the
wax we are talking about is lightly
scented with Old English bouquet
not enough to be detected imme-
diately, but definitely pleasing if
you lean over and sniff at the sur
face
The wax costs 81 jar, 81 so dou-
Bile size, and must be ordered di-
rectly from the maker The only
caution to remember about it is
DO not mix it with other ingredients.
You may spoil your beautiful pro-
tective film and long lasting hard
finish.

Managing Director Edward J..

Contractors of America today sum-
married action of the annual fall
meeting of the governing and ad-
visory boards at which chief topics
we're: Effect of world conditions on
the construction industry, progress
In labor relations and speeding up
of highway construction as a ma
tional defense measure.
In light of world conditions, he
said, general contractors:
l. Do not feel that the emergency
Immediately threatens the steady
growth of construction markets or
employment, or promises an imme-
diate boom.
2. Will do everything possible to
keep prices and conditions within
the industry as nearly normal as
possible. With markets still below
former levels they do not want price
increases or other factors to hinder
steady and permanent increase of
markets.
3. Feel that the industry which is
recovering from 10 lean years is in
a strong position to carry out eff
ciently all public and private con-
struction now in prospect or that
will be needed in case of a severe
emergency.
4. Recommend that in case of a
severe emergency the Federal Gov
ernment establish a separate board,
composed of persons familiar with
construction, to handle all construc-
tion matters. Coordination of the
industry with the Government. with
the public interest served first and
the principles of private business
preserved. can best be accomplished
by persons fully understanding COM
pleXities of the industry.
S. Call upon the Government to
cease destructive direct competition

Projects Administration, and per-
form all preparedness construction

tion organizations without the waste
of manpower, equipment, material
