baths sped up the enameling in
dustry, and incidentally the stove
beautifying process.
Bath TUBS Adopt
Porcelain Enamel.
The first cast iron bath tubs, fln-
ished only with several coats Of
baked varnish to keep them from
rusting, proved definitely unsatis-
factory. Whereupon bath tub makers
scurried about to discover the old
methods of enameling which would
not chip, scratch or wear out.
New enameled tubs sold like hot
cakes. Naturally the increasing
number of domestic porcelain en-
ameling plants brought costs tum-
bling down. And stove makers saw
their opportunity to cash in on a
buying trend. If housewives pre-
ferred porcelain enameled tubs there
wasn't any doubt that they would
prefer porcelain enameled stoves to
the heavy, black cast iron stoves
they had been using. As a result
their unsightly old cooking apparatus
was soon getting a lifetime finish.
Any one who has suffered through
the cleaning process of a cast iron
range can fully appreciate the rea-
sons for the ready acceptance of the
enamel finish. And before long not
only stoves but also refrigerators,
washing machines and other i'm

Today's housewife, who nonchal-
antly wipes of her stove and
refrigerator to restore them to
their purchase-day newness, should
breathe daily prayer Of thanks,
for she is reaping the luxurious re-
waro of hundreds Of years Of ex-
pertinent and progress.

Precious Stones
For Decoration.
Stoves such as this were literally
worth a kings ransom, for their
colorful decorations were made from
precious stones, such as rubieS and
sapphires. These were ground very
fine, mixed with other mineral in
gradients of porcelain, painted with
a brush on the white porcelain back
ground and then baked in special
ly designed kiln at an extremely
high temperature. There are very
few OF these still in existence today,
but their beauty and value are still
SO priced that wealthy people have
purchased them and designed a
whole house around them, possibly
! still utilizing their heating efficiency,
but mainly preserving their quality
OF design and finish for posterity.
Strange as it may seem after 400
years, even though the style of
stoves has changed materially, the
lllC Sd1lC,
enamel, the material now used on
refrigerators table tops, bath tubs
and other permanently finished
household equipment. And believe
1t or not, the process of making that
finish today is much the same as
1t was 400 years ago. Hard metallic
substances are ground to infinite
fneness and fused directly on steel
at temperature of 1,500-1 800 de-
grees.
Though the family jewels are no
longer sacrificed for decorative pur-
poses the coloring matter used on
modern decorated table tops must
be of inorganic chemicals that will
withstand the intense heat of firing
They become an integral part of the
enamel, thus eliminating the posi-
bility Of fading or wearing off. That
is why year after year, century after
century, the blues and reds on the
old stoves retain their original
sparkling beauty.
The streamlined electric and gas
ranges of today are an evolution of
step by step changes in construc-
ton and design.
It's an interesting fact that the

Why We Use Soap

The skin is complex organ con-
tanning millions Of tiny glands which
secrete perspiration and oil. Every
day, summer and winter, the sweat
glands give of about a quart OF
perspiration. The oil glands exude a
secretion that makes the skin f1ex-
ible and waterproof. These secre-
tions also hold dirt, bacteria, dead
skin cells and odors. To remove
them, thorough washing of the body
with soap and water, at least once

Order Banning Strikes
Announced in Britain

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, June IA new order
banning strikes and lockouts and
providing for rigid control of all war
jobs to make the best use of skilled
labor, announced by Minister Of
Labor Ernest Bevin, will go into
effect Monday.
Bevin told a labor audience that
I'm whatever I am doing I am
keeping an eye on its possible value
when the war is over" and added,
II know that a new country has
got to be planned"
"One thing we are producing
order out of chaos, and chaos it was
when we went in" said Bevin, appar-
emily referring to labor leaders entry
into the government under Winston
Churchill last month.
Bevin, secretary-general of the
Transport and General Workers
Union, told meeting of the build
ing trade workers that mo man
shall go to the front ill-equipped.'
THE system based on MONOPOLY
and big business failed to deliver
the goods in our hour of trial. the
Labor Minister said.
He added that there would be no
boom at the end Of the war.
