By the Amociated Prow. LONDON, April 22.—A further dis- covery carrying the history of Jeru- salem 500 years farthor than hitherto known is reported to the Daily Tele- graph by Prof. Stewart McAlls- ter, who recently traced the anclent city of David. This latest find in the excavation of the city shows a great trench sunk in rock older than the Jebusite wall previously found, and apparently formed a part of the city’s defenses in the early period. On the surface of the trench, which is eight ot deep and eleven feet there 1s a series of broken steps, now cleared for the first time of the silt and rubbish which cum- bered them from before the time of Abraham. What he unearthed within “the earliest wall” has convinced Prof: McAlister that he has penetrated into the city of Melchizedek. s L LUMBER MANUFACTURERS ASSOCIATION L ;&m@!

It is used in offices, public buildings, banks, hotels, stores,- restaurants, theaters, libraries, churches, schools, hospitals, rest rooms, club rooms—everywhere that people gather, one finds linoleum on the floor. Because of its wide use, it is im- portant to know just what linoleum is. * What Genuine Linoleum is Linoleum takes its name from one of its principal ingredients, linseed oil (lineum, flax, and oleum, oil). The oil is oxidized until it hardens into a tough, rubber-like substance, and then is thor- oughly mixed with powdered cork, wood flour, various gums and suitable dry pigments. The resulting plastic mass is pressed on burlap by means of heavy calenders. It then passes into drying buildings, where it is cured and seasoned from two to six weeks, depending on the thickness of the material. Linoleum is then ready for floors. Its many advantages may now be considered. Linoleum is Comfortable and Durable Because of its resiliency, linoleum is par-excellence the comfort- able floor. Cork and oxidized linseed oil are naturally elastic, and when combined in linoleum the material acts as a sort of cushion, which yields slightly under pressure. Properly installed and cared for, linoleum of suitable thickness will wear many years. It can not splinter, and since it is elastic it is not likely to crack or crumble. Linoleum is Sanitary and Easily Cleaned Because of its smooth, practically seamless, non-absorbent surface, a linoleum floor is perfectly sanitary. In installing it, we fit all seams and edges tightly and seal them with waterproof cement. Because of its smooth surface and freedom from cracks, a linoleum floor may be kept clean and bright at a minimum expenditure of time and effort. Ordinarily, wiping and polishing with a waxed mop or brush keeps it in good condition. Linoleum is Artistic in Appearance The modern development of linoleum has evolved colorings and patterns that are remarkably attractive and expressly suited for dif- ferent rooms in the home and different types of business floors. The plain colorings, the jaspes, and the granite, inset tile, carpet, and straightline inlaid designs offer a wide choice of atffactive designs from which one may select a linoleum floor that will be entirely in harmony with the general architectural plan. You can choose a linoleum floor here of appropriate coloring or design to carry out any desired decorative scheme. Now is a Good Time to Lay Linoleum It is more easily handled and laid in Spring than in cold weather. Its proper installation requires careful and accurate workmanship. For a permanent floor, the wotk is best done by our expeienced lay- ers. They cement deadening felt to the floor, then cement the Ii- noleum te the felt, This is the best method to secure a permanently satisfactory linoleum floor, Measurements are taken without charge, and estimates cheerfully given.
