MAKES STEEL HEAL ITSELF
Remarkable Machine Designed and
Constructed in French Workshop
During the War.

One of the most remarkable ma
chimes ever built is in operation at the
great workshop in France, where the
Royal Flying corps repairs it's damaged
airplanes. This machine the only one
Of it's kind, which was both conceived
and constructed in that workshop, is
described by Gustave Babin in ILLUS
tration as one that makes wounded
steel heal itself in exactly the same
way as wounded flesh heals.
1t is almost automatic, is operated
by electricity and uses galvanism as
it's principle. 1t needs only one or two
men to watch it, they being guided by
a chart, showing in many colors the
piece of metal to be repaired, the ex-
act repairs necessary, the composition
Of the galvanic bath, the current need.
ed, the diameter Of the wires that con-
duct it and the time Of immersion. All
this is worked out mathematically to
the minutest fraction and the machine
does the rest.
1t is used for restoring worn OF
broken parts of delicate motors, most
of which are difficult to replace. When
M. Babin saw it there were lying or
the table beside it parts it had just
repaired that would have cost $4,000
and much time to replace. In the
previous week it had turned out 800
pieces, all Of great importance, fol
| nothing less is confided to it.

Take Care of the Dishes.

Don't smash, crockery; the govern.
ment is cutting down on the manufac.
ture Of ten principal clay products
from Is to to as high as SO per cent.
The manufa cturing program Of this
Industry was ordered rearranged and
divided, placing It on the basis Of war
industry.
Besides crockery, this includes face
brick, common and paving brick, terra
Gotta, roofing tile, floor and wall tile
and sanitary ware which were cur.
tailed so per cent; hollow tile, sewer
pipe and drain tile 25 per cent, and
stoneware, with the exception of chem.
ical stoneware, Is per cent. Another
order curtails the output of enamel
ware so per cent.
This action is declared to be the fore
runner of similar curtailment Of prac
tically every industry considered moi
vital. Parts of the plants affected will
be converted for war Industries, and
men, materials and transportation will
be made available for war production
