It is referable and easier however to use mysinngle with a pro-attached strip or loeio in element. as ilhustreied in Figs. 1 zindfl,
This insures perfect alignment of the en shmglesron the root since the locking strip always fixed and held in a poeitiveposition with reference to the shingle be which it is eiiixed.

Referring'lo the drawings:
Fig. l shows a shingle or member l0 brovided with a locking strip 12 attached to the shingle by ste 10514, and a bout corner porti'on 16, thougi if desired, members not having the pro-bent corner may be used and bent .into the form shown as they are laid. In the latter case the member is first placed backside out and may he then bent while being put in its proper osition on the roof. The result is'substantial y the same as when Bl'llggleS with previously bent corners are use The locking strip 12 may be of any suitable material, depending, somewhat on the emselves. in case the latter are ofe flexibleprepared roofing type, I preferably emsiredto have the members 10 hp as herein-- after explained. If the locking strips 12 Figs. '3 and 4 clearly illustrate the conthe eave or ower edge of thesuriece to heee covered. The first or lowest course of the members 10 is then placed in position by slidmg the bent portion 16 under the lower edge of the starting strip. The adjacent eornere of the members 10 are then nailed down (or es otherwise fastened) and held by nails 22, as clearly shown in Fig. 4:. The next course of members 10 is then u filled, the bentnp portions 16 being inserted strips attached to the subjecent shingles an the members 10 puehed upwardly until the inside of the bend 18 of each shingle comes ad acent to the loclzin strip attached to its res ective subjaeent s ingle. At'the rid e or ip of the roof'the members 10 may e 95 broken otf, severed, or simply bent over, end suitable ridge or hip covering (not shown) applied. Due to the locking strip preferred form) having eonsiderab surface and being under the edges of the adjacent mi ,shingles overlapping its ends in addition to being attached to the overlappin% shingle, it issecurely held and it in turn acids down the lower end portion 16 of the overlying a broad fiat surface to.
1. As an article of manufacture, a shingle formed from pliable slate-surfaced fibrous under, said shingle having permanently affixed upon itsupper surface adjacent the diagonally opposite corner means adapted to slidably engage and hold down the bent-under portion of a similar overlying shingle,
3. As an article of manufacture, a shingle formed from pliable slate-surfaced fibrous material having but one corner portion bent under, said shingle having permanently af- ,1
fixed upon its upper surface, adjacent the di-.--
agonally opposite corner an attached piece of suitable material adapted to en age and hold down the bent-under portion 0 .an overlying shingle.
4. As an article of manufacture, a. shingle formed from a square of pliable slate-sum faced fibrous material having but one corner" portion bent under, said shingle having permanently afiixed u on ja'cent the diagona ly opposite corner an attached strip of suitable material adapted to extend across and hold down the'bent-under portion of an overlying shingle, the ends of said strip being adapted to project under the edges of the adjacent shingles.
