By this plan, the new shingles are laid right over the old roof—no cost for their removal—no litter of the old material—no loss of pro- tection during the operation. The “Red Cedar Method” The beauty of the home is improved. The old roof is completely hidden, even at caves and gable edges. About an inch is added to the thickness of the roof but this, if noticable at all, tends to give a slightly weightier and more substantial appearance to the roof. i YESTERDAY TODAT f Red Cedar Shingles are rot-proof, whether old or new, and lend Highest 4pm. | Low 4cm. 4am.
