Metal Weather Strips Saved 



Forty Thousand Cars of 



Coal Last Winter 



In the winter of 1918, metal weather strips 

 were credited with saving from waste, 

 two million tons of coal (40,000 car-loads) 

 which fact led the United States Govern- 

 ment Fuel Administration to publicly 

 state that "Weather Strips are 100% 

 fuel conservation." 



Every house-owner or building manager 

 must now realize the importance of the 

 weather-strip industry — must understand 

 that any unprotected window continually 

 wastes fuel by allowing heat to escape, 

 and should be anxious to mitigate the coal 

 shortage, that is staring the country in the 

 face, by installing metal weather strips to 

 save his share of the two million tons of 

 coal that they save the Nation annually. 



"Monarch Outstrips 'Em All" 



Monarch Metal Weather Strips hermetically seal win- 

 dows, doors, or any opening — yet provide a slipping, 

 sliding surface that allows easy and noiseless operation. 

 Made in two tubular strips — one acting as a curved track 

 for the other— they make a leak-proof cushion between 

 the sash and frame that gives and takes with every move- 

 ment of the window, yet seals the gap securely and per- 

 manently. "Monarch Outstrips 'Em All" because the 

 two-piece, tubular design is exclusively owned by the 

 Monarch Company.

 Metal Weather Strips will save your coal and increase
