He can't stand work and he hates to
shirk, but his hands won't do any
thing but jerk. His mind is q mud

A mother, father and daughter, the

Titanium for Steel Alloy.

Metallurgical science condensed the
progress of generations during Few
wears in the heat of wartime neees-
sitv. Since the signing of the arml-
stice. American metallurgists have been
studying the reports. suppressed during
war censorship, Of the progress OF the
allied and German metsllurgists.
During the war France used a great
deal of titauium, not only as a deoXi-
dizer but also in the production OF steel
having certain content of titanlum
1t has also been learned that some OF
the European countries, particularly
Germany and Sweden, are using tita-
MUM as a content in the production OF
automobile and other steels which are
subjected to most severe service. Such
steel has been a successful competitor
of American steels of about the same
romposition. American steel makers.
however. have since experimental along
the same lines. with the result that
they are now producing steel which
is at least equal TO that of their Euro
pean competitors.
Research work has not stopped here
but has been extended into the tool

periments indicate that titanium can
be used benefcially in place of all or

This is Of particular interest to Amer
lean manufacturers of high grade
steels. who have been unable always to
obtain ferrOvanadium in sufficient
quantities and have been forced to look
for substitutes Alloy steel makers
who have been experimenting with IL
tanium as substitute report satisfac-
tory results and think it is only ques-
ton of time until the public Is educat-
ed to the merits Of such steel. An ar
cument for the close study OF the pos
sibilities of titanium is the fact that
there are unlimited supplies OF high
Grade titanium ore in this country,
which. therefore. are not subject to in

Shoes That Pinch the Purse.

Possibly the most fantastic thing

pound, is at this writing worth Sl2.6O
Twelve ounces of fine kidskin is worth

but few have heard Of Rhodope, the
Egyptian maiden who had the most
beautiful foot to be found along the
Nile. One day when she was at her
bath discriminating eagle flew down
and carried off her sandal, which ne
dropped, by way of a suggestion, at the
feet of the king. OF course the KING
put his heralds right on the job, took
4 hand in the search himself, found his
Cinderella, and made her queen OF
Egypt.
