Red cedar shingles, which for centuries have been a favorite roofing miterial, have at last overcome the argument used by"fire chiefs against th9m. The W' I' Carpenter Lumber Company of-Everett, Washingto-n and Minneapolis, Minnesota have the exclusive age-ncy for the new Pyroof Painted Shingles, which enables,this concern to otfer the shingle marliet a painted wooden shingle l-n permanent non-Tading colors that at the same time is fire retardant.

This new product is backed by the W. I. Carpenter Lumber Compat^y, " .ot..rn long established with the lumber trade in ihe- manufacturing ind wholesaling'of red cedar shingles and lumber.

The Pyroof Products Company plant has been built at Everett and begins operations February 15th. The W' I' Carpenter Lum-ber Company are. exclusive -agents. -Tests -"d. olr"t a period of years at the instigation of.the inventor, J. L. Shannon, and carried out in fourteen different cities before fire departments and building inspectors, proves that Pyroof Piinted Shingles stand the most rigid ^fire tests. And above all, they stand the leaching testa test that proves conclusively that water will not wash ofi the fire ietardant virtues of Pyroof Painted Shinglesa weakness that has always been the objection to other fire retardant paints.

Pyroof t'ainted Shingles are sprayed with Pyroof Paint under hydraulic pressure and' when ready for-shipment, are packed in car^tons-a merchandising factor that makes them readily saleable, more distinctive and more acceptable than any other method yet employed in the marketing and merchandising of red cedar shingles.

The colors of *Pyroof Painted Shlngles are practically permanent and assure a brilliant non-fading color, particuiarly attractive to the home builder.

Samples and descriptive literature may h: had by-writing the W. I. Carpentir Lumber Company, Everett, Wutl- in[ton, who expect to market these shingles exclusively to'retail lumbei dealers and will carry on a progressive advertising and selling campaign to get them firmly established on the market.

Rod Hendrickson, Oakland lumberman, nia representative for the Pyroo! Painted offices-are located in the Builders Exchange land.
