And every automobile produced today is a good automobile, economically serving business and recreation needs of people in every station of life. But there is an obstacle standing in the way of its maximum service to owners. For while the automobile industry made paved highways an economic necessity, the mileage of such roads is today years behind the requirements of modern traffic. Happily mdtorists everywhere are boosting for more and wider paved highways. : And extensive experience has taught them that poncrete Highways are one of the best all-around investments they can make—an investment that pays big dividends.

PORTLAND CEMENT ASSOCIATION Union Trust Buildin, WASHINGTON. D.gC. A National Organization to Improve and Extend the Uses of Concrete OFFICES IN 29 CITIES TH_E sun porch shown in the picture was never quite suc- cessful before its present linoleum floor was laid. Its smart furniture, its effective cretonnes and hangings, were never at home with the old board floor. The paint on the floor was faded and worn; the surface was scarred ; there were wide cracks. The wood floor marred the whole effect. g Then the floor you see was put down. It is Armstrong’s Lino- leum in a marble tile inlaid. See how smooth and unbroken its sur- face 1s, how colorful and attractive its design. A modern, handsome fioor! This linoleum floor is only one of many beautiful patterns in the new linoleum. Armstrong’s Linoleum may be had in inset tile inlaids, marble inlaids, carpet inlaids. The new Jaspés—which are two-tone, rippling effects in blue, gray, green, and brown—are decidedly in vogue now for rooms where small or large fabric rugs are to be used. Never before has there been so great and rich a variety of charm- ing colorings and designs from which to choose pretty floors. (@HEHE XX AT EA LLNLEN2Y Besides being pretty— easy to clean, and permanent A floor of fine linoleum is wonder- fully easy to care for. As soon as it is laid, it needs washing and a thor- oughwaxing. After that simply brush up the surface dust each day with a dry mop. Once a week go over the floor with a cloth moistened in liquid floor wax. About twice a vear give it a complete waxing and lishing. That is all the care your inoleum floor ordinarily will need. It will actually mellow, and im- prove in appearance as the years go by. : When Armstrong’s Linoleum is laid in the modern way, it is a per- manent floor. Linoleum should be cemented down over a lining of builders’ deadening felt which has been pasted to the wooden under- flooring, Then there are no tacks, no noticeable seams, no buckling, no stretching. Your floor is snug and smooth. How to get linoleam floors Good department and furniture stores carry Armstrong’s Linoleum in designs suitable for any floor in the house.
