HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Wingham Advance-Times, 1968-07-18, Page 7Carpet on swimming pool bottom
is the newest idea in :outdoor living
Why ori earth would anyone -
put carpet at the bottou °'of
Fehr swims 3ng pool? Surpris.
ingly, there are sound practical
reasons for it, aside from: the
fact that it is something new.
For :example, it feels better
underfoot... it is safer because
you are less likely to slip and
hurt yourself... and it .adds a
look of luxury.
These are some ofthe rea-
sons advanced by Lou Packer
who believes he scored a " first,.
by putting .. wall to wall" broad -
Worn on the bottom of the
backyard pool at his Town of
Mount Royal home. The instal-
lation is something in the nature
of a test and he and Mrs. Pack-
er are both' .'tremendously
pleased" with the way it has'
turned out, •
The new indogr•outdoor
carpets are cropping up every-
where, " he said. "We know
they perform well on outdoor
patios, kitchen and bathroom
floors, boat decks, and every -
where else. So why not on the
bottom of a•poo1?'
Mr. Packer said that .the
carpet is unaffected by the.
chlorine and chemical agents
in the pool; is almost impossi-
ble to stain or wear out; is
mold, rot and mildew -proof;
won't fade in the sun because
the color is built right into the
fibre when it is produced,` and
water can't affect it because
the fibre won't absorb moisture.

Since their .introduction
. about three years ago, the 1rr-

because they are equally at

been welcomed in all kinds of'
places new to carpet includ

rooms and kitchens, basements
and garages. as well as gar-

Cleaning the carpet is
simply a matter of using the

The carpet on the pool deck
can be cleaned with a carpet

Dear Ann Landers:
mother-in-law is one of the love-
liest people in the world. She is
72 years old and has never
caused a minute's trouble. 1
realize I am a very lucky girl.:
The only problem is that she
bag a laugh that sounds like a:
rooster' crowing and it drive$
. °me out of my' mind. The othea'
night we asked two couples to,.
loin us at the theatre. Sudden-
ly that • unmistakable laugh
pierced the silence. I felt my
face get hot and I glanced at
my husband who gave me. that
"Hearn help us" lock.
One of our guests who is
newcomer to the city turned .td.
me and said, "Did you ever hear
such a hideous laugh in all your
lifer. I did not reply although "
I was, tempeted to say, "Yes,
I hear it quite -often. That's my
mother-in-law."
Do you feel I should say
something to the dear, sweet
woman about her laugh? I am
sure I could be tactful about it
and she would not be offended.
Please advise. PHILADEL-
PHIA Q.
Dear Philiy Q.: Say nothing.
If you are lucky you. will hear
that laugh for another 10 or 15.
years. And now 1111 tell m you
something that will be hard to
belieeve—one ofi these' days you - -
will miss it.

Dear Ann , Landers: 1 spent
last weekend with a friend who'
lives in another city. On . Sun-
day she asked me if I Watnted to
attend church with her and " I
said yes. This woman and I are
notof tpe same faith.
The ritual was foreign to me
but I did my best 'to follow the
services; I was greatly impress-
ed by the beautiful music and
the devotion of the worshippers.
When the members of,, the con-
gregation
ongregation knelt I remained seat
ed since people of my faith do
not kneel when they pray.
Shortly after • we 'arrived -
home; my hostess let me know
I had embarrassed her by re`
manning - seated when the other
worshippers knelt. I tried to ex-
plain that kneeling is not, con-
sistent with my religious train-
ing but she insisted that when
in Rome one does . as the Ro-
man do. If I am wrong, 1 will
apologize. What do you say?-
L.L.L.
Dear L.L.L.: Kneeling' is not
part of my religion, either, and
1 do not kneel when 1 worship.
in churches and catherdals. No
Roman (in or outside Roma) has
ever criticized me. In fact,
they Dave always been most
gracious and have made me feel
welcome and comfortable.
