It is made in pretty, cheerful- looking colors and attractive designs. A floor of linoleum will go far toward making your kitchen a pleasanter place in which to work. Also, linoleum is readily cleaned and doesn’t soil easily. Bacon grease may spatter, flour may be spilled, any kitchen disaster may over- take a linoleum floor, without serious results. Dust and dirt do not rub into it. An occa- sional washing keeps it looking bright and new. Genuine linoleum is firm, resilient, quiet, smooth, and permanent. You can get Arm- strong’s Linoleum in printed designs, or in , inlaid patterns where the colors run clear through to the burlap back. Write for our booklet, ‘Decorative Lino- leum Floors,” which contains twenty-four color plates showing different patterns of Armstrong’s Linoleum, suitable for any room in-your house. Any good furniture or depart- ment store will show you the particular colors and designs you want, and will also give you estimates of the cost of Armstrong’s Linoleum laid in your home. But when you buy linoleum, remember what linoleum is. It has a burlap back that you can see. Some floor coverings are mis- taken fo? linoleum that are not linoleum at all. They contain no cork, no linseed oil, and are not pressed on burlap. To be sure you are getting genuine linoleum, look for the Circle “A” trade-mark on the burlap back. e Armstrong’s Linoleum Rugs For people who live in apartments or who have houses on short leases and consequently do not wish to install permanent linoleum floors, Arm- strong’s Linoleum is also made in the form of bordered rugs.
