Some of these headaches -are per versely humorous; some arc almos tragic in their consequences; but near ly all are interesting. For example here are some told by the busines. men themselves or by their represen ta lives: The Army, Navy and what-not 1 great need for linoleum threatonet a shortage hi this flooring commod ity.
