Today, the Smart Shop Has a Modern Linoleum Floor HE decorative note which'the modemn floor of linoleum so clearly strikes creates a bright, new influence in any retail shop. A store with all new goods looks like an old-fashioned, antiquated store if it has a womn, soiled, or shabby floor. The modern shop is quiet, clean, and harmonious in 1ts appointments and in its visual appeal. These are exactly the qualities to be found in a floor of Armstrong’s Linoleum. The color and pattern of a wellchosen floor of Armstrong’s Linoleum give a feeling of unobtru- sive elegance to your store. All linoleum is quiet, as you know, and restful to the weary feet of shoppers and store personnel. An ecomomical floor Your janitor will bless such a floor. It is easy to clean and requires only waxing now and then to keep it looking its best year after year. It does not spot, stain, crack, or splinter. Tt never needs refinishing. Of course a fine linoleum floor must be properly laid. Laying linoleum for permanency Good linoleum merchants and con- tractors lay linoleum floors accord- ing to definite specifications—that is, cemented down, not directly to the underfloor, but over a lining of builders’ deadening felt which is pasted to the wood or concrete un- derfloor. Waterproof cement is used at the edges. Cold-weather contrac- tion or hot-weather expansion will notstretch or crack this Eind of floor. Armstrong’s Linoleum in all the finer inlaid patterns is designed and made with the expectation that it will be bought with an eye to its bezu;y, will be laid with the idea of perma- nency, and will be waxed and cared for as a fine floor should be. Talk to a merchant or write to s Your architect, contractor, or any good linoleum merchant can give you information on the economy of linoleum floors and their low upkeep cost. You can select a business floor of Armstrong’s Linoleum from many colors and designs—plain colors, Jas és (two-tone effects), tile - aitfi, marble inlaids—in keeping with any type of business. Our 48-page illustrated booklet, ““Business Floors,” will be sent you on request. It shows colorplates of Armstrong’s Linoleum and gives specific directions regarding laying linoleum floors and their care. 50 Sample Petticoats, $3 Of all-silk jersey satin. Drummer’s different.
