  the 
  House 
  

  

  This 
  house, 
  located 
  in 
  Lynchburg, 
  Virginia, 
  was 
  roofed 
  

   with 
  our 
  "Target-and-Arrow 
  Old 
  Style" 
  tin 
  about 
  twenty 
  

   years 
  ago. 
  Recently 
  it 
  was 
  practically 
  all 
  torn 
  down 
  except 
  

   the 
  roof. 
  The 
  house 
  is 
  now 
  rebuilt, 
  but 
  the 
  same 
  old 
  roof 
  

   covers 
  it. 
  Since 
  the 
  roof 
  was 
  first 
  laid 
  no 
  repairs 
  have 
  been 
  

   necessary, 
  and 
  when 
  the 
  new 
  house 
  was 
  built 
  under 
  it 
  no 
  

   work 
  was 
  required 
  on 
  it, 
  not 
  even 
  painting. 
  

  

  Another 
  instance 
  of 
  this 
  kind 
  is 
  that 
  of 
  a 
  building 
  in 
  Franklin, 
  Pa., 
  which 
  was 
  

   covered 
  with 
  our 
  ' 
  Target-and-Arrow 
  Old 
  Style" 
  tin 
  ten 
  years 
  ago. 
  The 
  building 
  

   was 
  recently 
  torn 
  down, 
  but 
  the 
  tin 
  was 
  found 
  to 
  be 
  in 
  such 
  perfect 
  condition 
  that 
  it 
  

   was 
  carefully 
  rolled 
  up 
  and 
  set 
  aside 
  and 
  later 
  used 
  on 
  the 
  new 
  building. 
  

  

  Our 
  booklet, 
  "A 
  Guide 
  to 
  Good 
  Roofs,'' 
  should 
  

   be 
  in 
  the 
  hands 
  of 
  every 
  prospective 
  builder.
