i ( i \^NESDA\. TUNE 9,1976 XRIBUNAL AH) Pewter Touchmarks For Unusual Dates To Remember New Floor Two centuries ago pew- terers "signed" their work with touchmarks. On the back of a pewter spoon or plate can be found a quaint symbol (quaint to us today) that proclaims the maker's identity. Pewterers took pride in their work. So, when an ob ject was finished to their satisfaction, but before the metal hardened--on went the touchmark. Because of rekindled in terest in America's heri tage, on flooring maker has received the concept of touchmarks for a special kind of no-wax floors. Only in this case the touchmarks, in real metallic pigments, are part of the flooring de sign. The design mostly con sists of what look to be rows of square clay tiles set in a sand grout. The touchmark are spaced at random inter vals among the tiles and give the flooring design its unusual character. (The flooring is actually "sheet" material that comes in 6-foot-wide rolls ■ but has the look of tiles.) To understand how it was possible,to re-create metal lic touchmarks in the design of a modern no-wax floor, it is necessary to know how such floors are made. Many no-wax floors have printed-on designs, which are protected by a clear "wear Layer." However, another type is made by an inlay pro cess. The designs of these inlaid floors are made by building up thousands of vinyl granules (picked ac cording to color anc arranged in pattern). The granules are then fused together under high heat and pressure in a pro cess akin to nature's own. Finally a no-wax wear layer is applied to give the floor a long-lasting shine. By adding metallic pig ments to the vinyl granules, it was possible to make a flooring design embedded with pewter-colored touchmarks. Inlaid floors have un matched "3-D" realism because the color goes straight thru the design. The touchmark design flooring is available in a choice of four colors: red, white, cork, and beige. In the cork color, the touch marks are bronze instead of pewter. msw Vr-'. mCH POENT—Writing poems is as natural a crea tive act for children aa drawing or painting, ac cording to Kenneth Koch, author of "Wishes, Liea and Dreams; Teaching diildren to Write Poetry."

The bible is fulfilling itself. We have just a little time to get ourselves together. Its time for us to decide whom we shall serve. Will it be God or will it be man? We 're prone to worship idol gods- Cars, houses, clothes, and man-made gods. But not the God that made us; the one that breathed into us the breath of life. Man-made religions cater to our economical and social environments. Revelation has revealed and still is revealing what has passed and what will come to pass. Take note of the things around us... We can not tell one season from another. This generation is wiser but much weaker; And the struggle in the middle east has become more prominent. We must get ready for his second coming Let us not fool ourselves. Sin is sin; no matter how great or small. Let us prepare ourselves; for right now-it's time. At the main literary weekly story hours for dif ferent age groups, poetry and puppetry workshops, a creative Bicentennial pro ject, and sign language storytelling are all on the Super Summer schedule. Summer reading pro grams at Southside and Washington Street will offer an interesting variety of weekly story hours, book character programs, films, and games. Also planned are a clown show and a community helpers' fair at Southside Branch, 401 Taylor Street, and a visit with the Fire Department at Washington Street Branch located at the corner of 4th and Washing ton Streets.
