tftrrc of weathering onlyenrich

QLASHING rain storms, heavy snows, U and sleet, or the baking heat of a summer sun-have these been fading into drab dullness the roofsyoz built?

Nolv a hitherto unknown roofing color in siate has been found that actually grows more beautiful with use. The stress of weathgr enriches its rare color as ocean wavee deepen the tan of rocks on the shorc.

This new wealhcred brown,bwlt'rnto a wholly new type of slate-surfaced shingle, brings distinctive beauty to the modern hrme, architects say. It isespeciallyeffective when blended with other Richardson shingles of jade green, title red, or black pearl. And only in the Richardson quarries of Georgia is it found.

A super-shingle

Weathered brown is used exclusively on the Richardson Super-Giant Shingle -a unique roofing product which in addition to its beauty, offers you an unusual degree of roofing serviceability.

For example, its greater size (10'x 14') saves 35lo in cost of laying. Its 50/o greater thickness makes it last much longer, and casts a deeper shadow line on the roof. And its l\dio greater stiffness keeps it rigid in all kinds of weather and makes the whole roof twice as firm.

Ancient Philosophers, and .even some modern, have pictured Opportunity as an old Man declining in years. They believed and taught that opportunity passed, but once in a lifetime. To refrain from accepting it at his particular favored time meant ttrat your chances for making good were lost forever.

Today we know better. Experience has taught that opportunity starts from the time we enter school and is ever ready to lend a helping hand to all who are determined, who are ready to apply consistent efforts and who really are desirous of making good.

Here the Artist is featuring opportunity as a Beautiful Woman whogc message of appeal commands consideration. She is ehowing the way to happiness, contentment, protection and ideal environments, advising all to leave congested digtricts, high rents, etc., and join the army of new homeowners who are accepting the opportunities for home ownership that are offered today.
