AKE a piece of cork in your hand and ex- amine its qualities. Rub it, feel it, press it. Cork is tough. It does not abrade casily. Throw this piece of cork on the floor and it will re- bound. Cork is elastic. It has springy qualities. When compressed it returns to its original shape. Drop it in water and it floats. Cork is light. Stop a bottle with it and it will confine liquids for years Cork is waterproof, and nonabsorbent. Cut a piece in two and you will see that it is compact and solid. How cork is used in linoleum Cork in powdered form is a basic material used in making linoleum, It combines perfectly with oxi- dized linseed oil, from which linoleum gets its name. Here is what we mean by “oxidized” linseed oil: When this liquid is exposed to heat and air, a solid, tough film forms on top. That is a sim- ple form of oxidization. When this tough substance is mixed with powdered cork the two blend together naturally. Pressed on a strong burlap back, you have what is known ground a3 fine as flour as linoleum. For the tread of many feet Linoleum is used as a floor; it has all the qualities that a good floor should have. Itis durable, smooth, and resilient. It is restful to stand or walkon. Itis warm, waterproof, and non- absorbent. There is another advan- ~Y tage to linoleum. It is pro- duced in many colors and patterns. Armstrong's Lino- leum is made in plain col- ors, in Jaspé or two-tone effects, in carpet inlaids, tile inlaids, and in many differ- ent printed designs. Also linoleum rugs, printed and inlaid, for people who live in apartments or houses on short leases. When properly laid, 4 permanent floor We have told you all these things about linoleum so that you willnot byany possibility confuse it with other floor coverings that are not made of cork, linseed oil, At early at 100 BC. the peasant of Gaul wore cork san dals cut from the bark of cork oak treet 10 beep his feet dry and strong burlap. When properly laid not tacked), Armstrong's Linoleum is not merely a floorcovering, but becomes a permanent floor, one that with occa- sional waxing and polishing should look as good as new for many years, and one thatwillnever splinter or 5 needcostlyre- finishin A room of light and color te which the ung polished, woxed linoleum floor adds chares How to lay linoleum over wooden floors In summer wood floors expand. In winter they dry out and contract, with a tendency to open up the cracks between the boards. Your linoleum floor, therefore, should be cemented (not tacked) over a lining of builder’s deaden- ing felt which has been pre+ viously glued to the bare floor boards. The felt takes up expansion and contrace tion and gives you a per= manent, waterproof, good- looking floor. The added service and wear this method gives are well worth the extra cost. Linclewm permanently cemented dn place requires ne stretching or retrimaing. Such @ floor is smooth and tight How to tell genuine linoleum All genuine linoleum has a burlap back that you can see. It does not tear easily. When you see the Circle “A” trademark on this burlap back, you can be sure you are getting the genuine Armstrong’s Linoleum, made by the Armstrong Cork Company.
