Flood Cartoons

A cartoon. like a poem, is neat

words. wish could draw couple
concc 'nlng the Hood last Saturday.
Now. | know the destruction caused
by high water isn't comical but the
things that happen at the time
often are,
For instance one of our clothing
stores had a couple of customers
when word came that the flood
was a certainty.
The clerk said, Perhaps you'd
better 90 or you'll get caught" She
was making short work of the sale.
"Oh. we aren't ready to 60" said
the woman. we aren't through pur-
chasing"
The clerk gave up any idea of
making a sale and started moving
merchandise frantically from bot
tom shelves to counters or above.
Which just made the occasion a
field day for the customers as they
started looking through the boxes.
"Oh. | didn't know you had this
shoe" or Isn't that pretty?"
I'm sorry" interrupted the irked
clerk, You'd better leave the store
or you'll get trapped"
You don't really think it will
come in here do your"
We'll, it has"
Seeing Second street turn into
a surging river and realizing the
flood was between them and their
car they decided to look awhile
longer. The gentleman even sug-
gested they might put on their new
ly purchased bathing suits and take
to the high seas"
Finally in desperation amid
heaving of arm loads of clothing the
customers we're led out through a
Storeroom just before their feet
got wet. But it was with reluctance.
Can't you see a cartoon of a
woman with water to her ankles
looking over an item of clothing
and saying, DO you think this will
be in the flood sale?"

USEFUL ITEMS
By ID. M. DERWIN

The number Of homes using
linoleum has always been quite
large, but of late years many
homes have trended to flooring
of asphalt tile, cork tile. rubber
tile and carpeting. Regardless Of
what the final decision in floor
finish may be, the results, both
in appearance and wearing quail
ity, as well as satisfaction, de-
pend on the initial preparation
and underlayment.
A manufacturer Of hardboard
has developed an economical
panel material that was designed
particularly for use as an under
layment for linoleum. rubber
tile, asphalt tile and other finish
floor materials. This underlay-
ment is available in two conven-
lent panel sizes: 8 feet by 4 feet
and 4 feet square. Each has an
uniform thickness slightly less
than "a inch.

the finish flooring material. In
addition, it offers additional in
sulation. thereby decreasing heat
losses while transmitting less
noise to the areas below the
floor. This is a desirable feature
where one is finishing OF an
attic.
In those instances where it is
used in a basementless home,
there is a warmer, tighter floor,
