Saylno Screw Shavinas.

Two thousand years seems a long
time to wait for al Improvement, but
this has been the case with the screw.
Metal screws have been made since
236 B. G. The shank Of the screw has
been turned from a bar of metal hav-
ing the diameter of the screw head,
thus wasting large proportion of the
metal by reducing 1t to shavings.
A certain screw manufacturer has
decided to alter this. A metal bar, OF
the diameter Of the shank, is put into
a matrix and subjected to enormous
pressure. The head of the screw is
thus expanded in the confined COM
partment, which gives it the desired
shape. The only waste occurs in
threading the screw and finishing the
head

SAYS WAR HELPED RELIGION
Big Fight Made Soldiers Better Men,
Is Assertion Made by Man Who
Knows Them.

The American soldier came out Of
the war with more religion than he
went in, according to Rev. Henry Rus
sell Talbot, canon Of the National
cathedral at Washington, who arises
to defend the doughboy from the libel
that the war ruined him."
"He is a better man for having been
In the army" asserts the canon, refer
ring to the veteran, the Stars and
Stripes states.
Canon Talbot was senior chaplain OF
the, First division m the American ex-
pedftfohary forces. In communica-
ton to national headquarters Of the
American Legion at Indianapolis he
admits the American, as he saw him
iu France, was ''uncommonly timid in
the exercise Of his religion. He was
frightened ut his own religious shadow
or he might have been grossly ignor-
ant Of the content and practice Of his
religion"
But as the First divisions senior
chaplain, the canon was IN charge Of
ali the private belongings of the 1850
Americans killed in the ten days fight
ing in the Argcnne, and n nine out Of
every tea Of the mems kits found a
cruciiz, scapular, prayerbook OF tesla
ment, And in those days" Canon
Talbot writes, the First division was
not carrying anything it did not deem
essential
i. 1-I,,rp,
which outruns the ordinary standards
OF honesty" declares the canon, but
underneath there was implicit, If not
explicit, reverence for the Son sf
Man"
