You Can Now Get a Pair! 
The trenches in Flanders are now empty and it is no longer 
necessary to keep supplying the boys “over there” with U. S. 
“Protected” rubber boots. 
So, instead of making trench boots almost exclusively as we have 
been doing, we have reverted to our before-the-war manufacturing 
program, and will soon make up the shortage that exists in the supply 
of heavy-service, double-duty U. S. “Protected” rubber footwear. 
Uncle Sam has furnished “our boys” with 
the best rubber boots that money can buy, 
and, in both the Army and Navy, there 
probably are as many U. S. “Protected” 
rubber boots as all other brands combined. 
Outdoor workers everywhere recog¬ 
nize the dollar-for-dollar value of 
“U. S.” quality. It means rubber boots 
of the sturdiest construction, reinforced 
where the wear is greatest, yet entirely 
comfortable. Longer wear insures saving 
of money. 
Every pair of U. S. “Protected” rubber 
boots bears the “U. S. Seal”—trade mark 
of the largest rubber manufacturer in the 
world. Look for it. It is your protection.
