- OOU'LL not see any buntings un-
" furled or hear any impassioned
speeches = but, nevertheless,
194l is the hundredth birthday of
humble invention that all of us use
every day in our lives. And though we
have probably never thought of it as
anything but prosaic commonplace,
it has had an extremely interesting
career - as we'll as truly romantic
birth.
I'm speaking of the tooth-paste
tube.
Five hundred years ago John and
Hubert Van EyCk revolutionized
painting by introducing the first oil
colors that would dry on canvas satis-
factorily. But the oil also dried in the
jar or pot. and for the next 400 years
artists grumbled and swore while they
mixed their pigments little at time
for immediate use. Then John Rand.
an American citizen living in England,
made a lead tube that was almost
twin of the one you got your tooth
paste out of this morning. This kept
oil paint ready for use and squirted it
out in long or short worms as needed.
Rand patented his invention in the
United States, and the new container
was first used by a firm of paintmakers
in New York. This firm - f1ourishing
now - is still putting oil paints into
oollapsible metal tubes.
Little is known Of John Rand. He
left no record of how he came to in
vent his almost perfect container and
dispenser of semi-liquids. At any rate,
he was smarter inventor than busi
nessman. He made little or no money
out of his idea.

tubes were invented just 100 years ago
by Arthur Newcomb
Evening star., 1941-11-23

Not until 1870 did a Philadelphia
manufacturer. forgetting about paint,
make extensive use of the tube. And
he certainly started something when
he put a good old aid to milady's
beauty, cucumber jelly. into the first
batch of tubes that came from the
factory.
But it was only a start. The tube
did not really come into its own until
tooth paste became an important
household commodity.
A Long History
As MANY as 1000 years ago the
Chinese had mixed tooth paste from
powder and water. But the first tooth
paste to be made in America appeared
IN jars about lS49. A year later it
came out in collapsible tubes. Nobody
paid much attention to it then,
though. But, some SO years later. it
began to be advertised in big way.
And that was when John Rand's back
ward child started to grow up.
People liked tooth paste - and they
liked the way it was packed. No fin
gers could be dipped into the air
tight tube. 1t was handy and econom-
ical. and it was unbreakable.
50 other pastes, creams, jellies.
soaps and salves began to be put up in
tubes. to be squeezed out little at
time. Some liquids and powders were
deliberately made into paste so they
could join the parade. Along came
CLUES, cements. wakes. greases, print
er's inks, pastry decorations and many
other semi-liquids.

Price Ceiling Rule Helps
Clear Textile Outlook
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Nov. "a ruling by
the Government clearing up many
complaints about the retroactive
clause of the cotton cloth price cell
ing attracted more interest than
any other development in textile
markets this week.
The amendment to the price
schedule allows contracts concluded
before July 81 to be settled at levels
called for when the spot cotton
market sells at 1899 cents a pound.
Many mill men who had sold goods
months ago when cotton was con-
Siderably lower than at present had
been grumbling loudly about their
predicament.
Actual business in cotton cloths
was small this week with estimates
in Worth Street putting the turn
over in print cloth and related items
at about 100000 yards. Mills con-
tinued to allot only limited guam
titles. Prices of finished goods not
under ceiling continued to show
a tendency to ease, making the drop
over the past three to five weeks
about 10 per cent. Greige goods
and yarns continued to command
ceiling prices.
