Make This Red -Hot Coal Test 



It is a true test. The spread of fire is generally due 

 to flying sparks, white-hot embers or blazing brands falling 

 on shingle or tar roofs which quickly catch. On Rex Flintkote 

 they smolder and die — try it and see for yourself. 



We do not claim that Rex Flintkote is fire proof— light it on 

 the cut edge and it will slowly burn — but there are no cut edges on a 

 roof — the method of laying avoids this. The surface only is exposed. 



Rex Flintkote is Good Fire Insurance 



It fulfills its purpose. Quality is not sacrificed, and never will be, 

 to meet or undersell cheap competition. Rex Flintkote is an honest 

 roofing in conception and execution. It resists fire; it resists rain, 

 snow, heat, cold and wear. It is a perfect roofing for public build- 

 ings, factories, railroad buildings, residences, barns and poultry 

 houses. Two hundred thousand square feet cover the new 

 Atlanta Railroad Terminal. Any workman can apply .j&k 



it. Complete laying outfit with directions in /W^^l^^ "^f &/u%

all kinds. We answer roofing: questions of every
