One Reason Why 
“White’s Canoes’* Surpass All Others 
There is just one point I want to tell you about in detail. It’s 
the way White puts on the planking. Instead of butting the 
boards up against each other, as all other makers do, White 
bevels and laps every seam, thus making practically water-tight 
craft, before the canvas is stretched on. This method prevents 
♦»^acks caused by shrinking or swelling, and keeps out the sand 
which is the ruination of the canvas. 
When buying a canoe, ask the salesman “Is the planking 
beveled and lapped?” If he knows what you are talking about, 
and is truthful, he will answer “No”—unless it’s a “White.” 
May I send you a “White Canoe Facts”? 
Or better still, our complete Catalog No. 530 ?
