B. KỸ NĂNG
 DO YOU KNOW? 
 HAINES SHOE HOUSE - THE WORLD’S WEIRDEST HOME 
 This home was built in 1948 by Colonel Mahlon Nathaniel Haines for advertising purpos¬es. 
 Apparently, Haines walked up to the architect, handed him an old work boot, and said, “build me a 
 house like this." Every window of the house is decorated with a stained glass shoe. There's a shoe 
 mailbox out front, and a boot-decorated fence surrounding the yard. Even the dog house is shaped 
 like a boot. 
 The generous Haines decided to turn the construction into a holiday home for elderly people, and 
 for newlyweds who worked for his company. The shoe has passed through several owners since 
 Haines’ death in 1962, and is maintained by its current owners as a tourist attraction.
