Brantfo'hi Asphalt Slates have a surface of crushed slate embedded intoX>ur asphalt coating, the base of.. the roofing being felt 9aturated with asphalt. They are cut the size of shingles., and t1teir beautiful soft colors of reddish brown and dark green give a roof a most artistic appearance. The colors are the natural shades of the slate as it comes out of the quarries. ~rantford Asphalt Slates are, therefore, unfadeable -never require painting.

·BraDtf'oM · ~sphalt ;Slates

are accurate in size and pliable, which makes them very easily handled and quickly laid, saving time IUld labor, and therefore costing less to lay.

Brantford Asphalt Slates make nn artistic, durable · and economical roof. Booklet describing them m:1iled on request.

PEAL '

\ . From His Excellency ~e-cov-,

ernor fo~ .~ecruits for Active Servi~

I am addfe.uiog Uris appeal to all the people of Newfoundlaod, but especially to those of tbe OutportL • f

Your Goverom~ot ha've decided to eke aoother special attempt to obtai,n further recruits for the duties forced upon us by the war. I am aoxious to explain to you in simple and strong words why those dutit:s are yours . •

I

lo your sea-girl home you ba\•C1 1 know, JOUr owa daogeu aod aoxi~ies to face. As I write this my mind ia still Cull:of the appall· lag dbaster to the Florh:el. But war you do not realize ; you are beyond the sound of the guns whicb, ia the South E 1st corner of. :r(.oglind, I have beard day after day brealriog in u1•·m the beauty and calmness of the summer air.

\,

That aw~inapiriag rumble of the guns which 1 ask you tu

agiae, that lurid light on the horizon w.hich. I ask you to pictur!, are tht aigoa of a terrible struggle for Right-of a mighty effort to save from ruio, oot only France. but uery bit of free aoil ia tbe world, iacludiog the Island of which JOU are 10 proud. The awful struggle seems to be approacbio&' ita climax now, nod your ctose kinsmen are in the middle of it. ~

Some may ask, What is tbe daoger ? aad it is my purpose to

..

make it clear to you, ·•

By some permissiott of Divine Provitleace, which we do not un­derstaod, a oatioo of criminals is now attackiog all that is juat aad true io ,the whole world. Germany bas set herself deliberately to violate every taw of ,Right aad every priaciple of Humanity.

' Never before ia history baa a war been plaaned like thi1.

Hitherto all wars have bad some.aort of pretext of right or impulae, ot passioa. It has been reserved to the Germaa Military puty to plot wilfully aad waatoaly a Jfe&~ crime agaiaat the peace of maakilld.

And the hypocrisy with which Germany supports the crime makes it still more abominable. As Judas treated the Cbrist, Ger· many Ia treating Civilization. Uader appeals to God, Germany masks the utmost malignities of the devil. Tbe German oat ion to­day knows no law except that of· the pagan, the J1ar, the ravisher, the murderer. They are a. curse to let loose oo the world, And the task demanded of us is to fight and conquer this curse just as in our moral life we are bound to fieht and conquer Sio. The Cause ia a far broader aod holier Cause than that wbich impelled the Crusaders aeaiaat the Saraceos.

We may thank God that the greatest nations of the world ha\•e realized the justice of the Cause ; &~~«!I believe that every maa in Newfoundland will ooe day be thaatful ~at he WitS at least asked to face this question-" Ia it not my higher duty to go out and sue humanity fi'CL'i!.Aeatruction ? ' · ~

Remember that your wi ves, your "'Childreo, your cottages, you/ boafa, are Ia positive danger if tbe Gqe,os break l}uough ip'France. As he ia treatlag the 'foolish Russia he will 'treat everr natioa he touches-America, Canada, Newfouodlaod, arc!' to him mere objer-tives for his greedy brutality. He is eotirel7 evil, he baa no sense of Right and oo feelings of Mercr.

This mau Qf iacaraate aelfi'shness is held back by the strong arm of the Allies ia Frao~ Will aay mao of ritish race decline to\do all be caa to defeat aad crush it ? •

At this moment the o. ls specially great, for the Germans are oow deaperate. They begia to realise the truth of that dread decree: "He tliat takes ' the sword, shall perish with the sword.'" At ao horror will they hesitate if they can but escape the punisbaaent that is their due. . . •

~ on every maa and womaa amOilf ua lies the duly to bear a baud ia adminiatratiog that pualshl!leat-a du(y oot only to our­selves, but to posterity. If age or health prevent some of us from goiog, they do not prevent us from followiag tbe gTeatest example · ever set to maakiod aad makiag the sacrifice of that which is dear­est to our htarta.

You youog mea I ask to listea carefully to the -appeals which wi11 once more be made to you ia the next few weeks. elieve me that the \•oluatary a~ of a. mao, im.pelled by the high senae o( dutr , is {ar ooble~ than the mere obec11eace to the provisioiis of a public eo-aclmeot. ' ' ' ?

Oae special word I ear to womea. Try to ru,iiae the suffering a ~ women and children whereve.r the Germana come : thillk of tbe little children starved in Befttum aad alliGKhtered ia cold blood in Armenia. Let your mea folk stand out aad protect ,you, 'for Ia help· iog to defeat the Germans they are protecting the honor and safety/ of all their dear ones at home. ""
