Better light, down low,-under your car, if desired, -quick escape of smoke and gas, and protection against fire,-all these make Fenestra WindoWalls appeal to any garage builder anywhere. And the car owner profits, too, for it is with a distinct sense of security that he stores his car in a Fenestra equipped garage. But it is equally pleasing to know that these advantages can be enjoyed at an actual saving, and that popular types and sizes can be purchased from any one of 24 warehouses and delivered at once. Whether you are planning a small private garage or a mommoth service station, it is logical that we who made the first steel sash in America and who have pioneered in the improvement and installation of WindoWalls can suggest practical ways of bettering your window design. And it costs you nothing to enlist the prompt service of our trained engineers in 63 cities. That is why the large majority of architects, engineers, and contractors call in the "Fenestra man even before they submit an estimate of cost to owner. ARE YOU AMONG THOSE WHO REGARD ANOTHER WAR AS POSSIBLE? THEN READ "The NextWar" By WILL IRWIN It is an appeal to common sense which in the face of a common assumption that future wars are inevitable is incomparably important. Instead of discussing disputes which might lead this or that country into conflict, it goes to the heart of the question of why the world should permit war at all. MR. IRWIN'S book is the clear, straight talk of a man who shows what another war would mean to the world, its cost in the wealth of nations, in human life, in demoralization, and of how America should prevent it as she alone can. Illustrated with many graphs, half-tones, etc. READ ALSO Balkanized By PAUL SCOTT MOWRER The Public Ledger, Phila., quotes Mr. Mowrer's definition of the Balkanization of central and southeastern Europe as "The creation, in a region of hopelessly mixed races, of a medley of small states, with more or less backward populations, economically and financially weak, proud, covetous, and intriguing, a continual prey to the machinations of the great powers, and to the violent promptings of their own passions," and says: "The book is important if not indispensable to every student of international politics." The New York Herald says: "Mr. Mowrer has handled the most complicated and diverse political questions which have ever troubled the world with clarifying lucidity, and has packed into his treatment a mine of understanding and wisdom which might indeed constitute a formula for their possible adjustment. . . . We can only hint at the riches of this invaluable volume." The Pittsburgh Dispatch says: "For those who realize that the passing year is to witness some momentous decisions touching the American arrangement of its foreign relations, the unusually clear expositions of the volume will be particularly welcome. . . an exceptionally valuable book." In The New York Times Maurice Francis Egan pronounces it: "the best manual for reference for Americans who desire to know why we do not understand Europe, and why Europe does not understand us." Price $5.00 Manpower By LINCOLN C. ANDREWS Because of the great success which attended the use of his little book on leadership in officers' training camps during the war, Brig. Gen. Andrews was invited to write the textbook for a new West Point course in the psychology of command, which is published under the title "Military Manpower." The principles on which it is based he has adapted to the needs of men in executive positions in civilian life. The New York Times says: "The whole book is so concise, so untechnical, so filled with the knowledge of human nature, so thoroughly in accord with the best traditions and the finest deveolpments of our American democracy, that it deserves an honored place on the working table of every one who has the direction and control of even one other person." Price $2.00 They can be bought in any bookstore or, if not, from E. P. DUTTON & COMPANY 681 Fifth Ave., New York 8279 Look! then write your own title The blow torch test proves that there is nothing in Asbestos Roofing to support combustion. Johns Manville Asbestos Shingles, Colorblende Asbestos Shingles, Asbestos Built-up Roofing for flat roofs, Asbestos Ready to Lay Roofing in roll form, Asbestos Corrugated Roofing. THE HE siren scream on city street or the pound of hammer on the rural engine tire-both shout the same warning to all building owners "Look out for flying embers on your roof" for every roof within earshot is in immediate dangerand even those that are well out of hearing are still within the fire circle once a fanned ember gets into the upper air currents. Jumps of one, two and even three miles are given in the fire records. So that the roof-communicated fire does not depend on the adjoining property for fodder. In the Atlanta Conflagration three widely separated fire centers were noted shortly after the initial blaze-roof-communicated all; and $5,500,000 was the charge that the National Board of Fire Underwriters made against the inflammable roof in this one fire. Thus the urge for fire-safe roofing is a very real one because every house is all roof to the fire-brand-make the roof all-mineral-with Johns-Manville Asbestos-and this big cause of conflagrations is killed right there. By making Asbestos roofing for all types of buildings, Johns-Manville has given you not only insurance against the communicated fire but rock resistance to all the elements that destroy roofing so that a Johns- Manville Asbestos roofing put on your building today not only satisfies all roofing requirements for the life of the building, but it is your insurance against the day when legislation demands that your roof be made fire-safe. Your first cost for a Johns-Manville Asbestos Roof is your only cost. Johns-Manville Asbestos Roofings are approved by the Underwriters' Laboratories Inc., and take base rate of insurance. |
