If your floors are in need of re-
pair or refiniShing, hide them
under carpet. The idea is not as
'wacky' as it sounds Requirements
of worn floors, or resanding and
finishing is an expensive item in
home improvement budgets. Color
full and practical carpeting, laid
wall to- wall along with a soft,
springy underlay, can eliminate the
need for most repairs. The savings
realized can help pay for large
share of the cost of a good quality
carpet. Remember that carpeting
is both a floor covering and fin
ished flooring material.
BY laying carpet over worn
floors, you get the benefits Of a
finished floor and a beautiful floor
covering for the price of one. Even
if you replace or refinish your
floors, some floor covering is still
needed.
Slight cracks, diseoloring and
Irregularities in most worn floors
can be concealed; the carpet, plus
padding, also provides a cushion
that compensateS for most uneven
floors.
Before laying the carpet on worn
floors, be sure that loose boards
are made firm and that all nails
are set flush with the floor. Bumpy

ridges should also be sanded down.
Small breaks or cracks in the
floor can be filled in with some
mortar or quick-drying cement.
A sheet of asphalt-impregnated
kraft-paper, or building paper
over the floor and under the pad
ding and carpet helps prevent dust
coming up from any cracks in the
old floor.
Carpetry, combined with padding
helps insulate the room and cuts
heating costs; it also provides ade-
quate sound conditioning for most
family needs.

LONG TINE ARIz.
BANKER Retired

A banker for forty years, vice
president Keith H. Evans retired
from First National Bank of Ari
zona on January l.
Not only does Evans have ar
unusual record for long employ
ment, but he comes close to being

it his home ever since.
His long banking career began

was gained from the ground up as
he progressed to bookkeeper, tel
ler and various departments, and
then to the position of assistant
manager of one of the banks larg
est offices, the 18th & Mcdowell
branch in Phoenix. In August 1859,
upon completion of the banks 7th
Ave. & Comeback Office, he was
named manager and shortly after
ward was elected a vice president.
During World War l, he served
in France and in Germany with
the Army of Occupation. His life
long hobby is golf and his shining
hour was reached last year when,
after SO years of play on the
courses in and around Phoenix.
he made a hole-in- one on the En-
canto Short Nine. He has served
for many years as treasurer o
both the Phoenix Twilight Col
League and the Central Arizona
Golf Association. He is also a mem
ber of the Encanto Kiwanis Club
American Legion and Veterans o.
Foreign Wars.
He and his wife Della reside a
e3O North 9th Avenue.
Evans, 65, says he looks forwarc
now to spending more time on the
golf course, and travelling to visit
with his two daughters, who, live
in Boston.

NOT AFRAID

Little Richard had supposedly
retired for the night, but presently
he began calling downstairs that
there was a spider on the ceiling

Nobody paid much attention but
when Richards yells became more
strident, his mother called up to
him, Nov, darling, you're not
afraid of that spider!"
