Most of us are familiar with sev- eral various uses for discarded inner tubes. Few know, however, that these discarded relics can be made into floor mats, requiring but a short time and little labor. The old tubes are • first cut into trips. The strips are then woven or nterlaced with each other, basket ashion. The end strips are made ouble width and turned over.. These trips should be cemented in place. A row of brass rivets, placed round the edges, improves the ap- arance greatly, in addition to mak g the mat stronger. s i f each tape can be snapped togetherld to form a loop.
