Minnesota Posts to Airmark Towns

A score of Minnesota Legion posts
have already. with the cooperation of
their citizens, painted the home town
name in huge letters on the railroad
station roof or some other prominent
building. Olivia was one of the first
to do so. During 1929 the Legion
posts of Minnesota hope to add many
more such airsigns on the maps of
air travellers.

 There is one respect. st leasv, where wood has a noticeable edge over metal-in initial cost. Propon- ents o: the latter. however, declare that the greater original cost Is more than offset by the decrease in upkeep expense.

Metal Is Making Rapid Gains in
 Building of the Modern Arplane
Is Particularly Successful in Construction of Large
 Ships Built for Both Civil and Military Uses

employed to make joint having much greater strength. according to proponents of this form of plane fabrication.
 Navy Dept. Figures.
 The navy has compiled very defin- ite figures to substantiate the claim that metal construction is lighter than wood. The hull of the PN-7 planes, fabricated of wood. weighs 2,34o pounds while that of the PM 10 ships, of the same dimensions but made of metal, weighs only l.s10 pounds, net saving of b3o pounds or 2s per cent of the total. The saving that is effected in the uings of the latter plane also is consider . able. The ribs made of wood weigh. f.5S pounds, whereas those of metal scale only 1.17. Eight pounds are saved in the metal wing beams which weigh 5S pounds each as against 64 for those of wood fabyica- tion
 The greatest difference is to be found in the ailerons. In ailerons made of wood, the structure of each without the fabric weigh 73 pounds. Where metal Is used. the weight Is cnly S7.50 pounds.
 In addition to it's uniform strength this factor of any metal may be de- termined with the greatest of accur- acy by fairly simple tests. The su- reriority of metal in this respect de- mands less of a factor of safety for the same degree of assured per- formance from a plane.
 Corrosion is one of the very def mite obstacles raised in some quar- ters to the use of metal in various plane units and proponents of metal lave developed some interesting an- swers to this argument. In the past, metal construction of all kinds, from tin roofs to automobiles. has been safeguarded in this respect by a protective coating of paint. So general is the practice of painting metals exposed to the weather that the sight of one Of the large modern sll-metal transport planes in natural finish is tho subject of wondermeEt 10 the layman.
 The answer of one large manu- facturer of this type of ship is in | teresting. It is left unpainted, he declares. Tn the belief that if it is regularly cleaned and polished, it is less subject to weathering than by any other treatment. The long, hard usage in all kinds of weather to which some of these products are subjected goes far toward substan- tiating this claim.
 Much Metal Usad.
 Even in the lighter planes which continue to use spruce and other woods. mostly in wing construction, great deal of metal is used. AL most all fuselages are of welded steel tubing. though most of them are covered with fabric instead 0, 1.-the duralumin which is used in lars-

tBy FRANK !. CARsloDY.,

In the field of airplane manufac- ture where progressive strides are taken almost daily. metal construc- tion rapidly is gaining ground. The significance of the trend toward metal is most clearly revealed in 3 study of the specification of new planes being placed upon the mar ket. together with those of new de- signs of planes that have been in production for years. Such a study indicates beyond cavil that the adop- ton of steel and duralumin for many units-in many designs all of them --is forcing the various woods once used in plane fabrication into con- stantly more limited application.

Light. fast planea still embody many units of spruce, balsam and other light. strong woods and, experts believe, they will 90 on doing 20 long after every large afr craft is an "a,l-metal" product.
 The navy. which has done consid erable experimentation and pioneer ing in metal. plane construction makes an interesting and logical case for this type of fabrication. That the navy should be a. pioneer in this field IS not surprising for its aircraft arc built for water use and water and wood are two old and bitter enemies. although man has succeede marvelously in discovering barriers to put between them. such as paints. oils and other finisheA
 The steel that goes into the con struction of aircraft is claimed to have many advantages and. although disputed in some quarters. lighter weight is one of these.
 Among the chief virtues Of metal is that it's strength is constant: that is. one piece is as strong as an- other, whereas in wood this is not always the case even when 1t Is ot the same species. Other superior qualities claimed for the metals used in airplane construction may be list ed as follows:
 They do not swell and contract thus making resetting and trueing | necessary.
 They do not warp, split or twist due to variations in temperature and humidity.
 They are not subject to rot and decay.
 They reduce fire hazard. They are not attacked by insects Another advantage very definitel. attributed to metal construction is that it. Is in nowise 90 limited in thf ways 1t may be worked. Wooder joints may be put together in any one of four ways: mortised, glued bolted or wrapped. Tn the case oi metal riveting, folding. bo1ting. weld ing, soldering, or brazing may be

Cascara IS Your Doctor 'sChoiice

When physicians pronounce cascara the PERFECT laxative-why experi- ment with things that lash the sys- tenn into action? Cascara. you know, is the bark of tree. A natural and normal stimulus to the bowels.
 The Indians. who used 10 chew this bark, had no word in their lan- gnage that meant "constipation'
 Perfect regularity is possible to- day, and to all of us. We have cas- cara in ideal form: the very delight- ful-tasting candy cascaret gives us pure cascara. It has helped at least a million people to habitual regular ity. Millions of others, unfortunate ly. have stuck to stronger things and acquired only the laxative habit.

WATER FACTOR IN
 fLAVORING 0F TEA
IQadelS Woman Faster Gives
 Views on Beverage

London. Feb. 10 R-Bad tea is often due to the water used in mak- ing 1t and every careful tea-drinker should have the water with which she makes the tea. tested to make sure that 1t harmonizes' we'll with the brand of tea she is using.
 This ii tho dictum of London's only professional woman tea-taster. Miss Margaret Irving.
 Water can entirely change the character of tea" said Miss Irving. For example. in Scotland. where the water is very soft, Darjeelins tess are especially popular because tho water accentuates the best quali- ties of that particular growth"
 Mincing Lane is now in the throes of winter tea sales and Miss Irving is busy passing judgment on lots upon which buyers are bidding, Frequently she has to taste as many as 300 samples a day.
 First she smells the dry leaves, to determine their exact quality and origin. Then water brought to the boiling point is poured into 300 pots containing samples and after these have stood for exactly six minutes Miss Irving tastes each of the brews She merely sips the tea and does not swallow it.
 Out of 800 samples ordinarily about 50 are chosen as most desir- able. Indian tea is sold one day Ceylon is offered on the following day and | separate day is given to Java tea and another to China tea.
 Special brands or grades of tea dc not necessarily come from special sort of plants, but are definite sort of leaf from any plant. The most expensive tea comes from plants which are grown at the high est altitude.
New Britain herald., 1928-02-10

Your first cascaret will demon- strate how THOROUGH this gentle laxative is, after all. Your next sur prise will be the length Of time be- fore you need another. Eventually. you'll see that cascarizing tends to make the bowels move thereafter Of their own accord.
 A modern drugstore must stock many laNatives, but for your own good the druggist would rather nave YOU ask for the inexpensive little ooA of casca rets than anything else.
