A highly polished stone may look exactly the same hundreds of years from now, Mr. Stafford sald. Less extensive varieties of stone may show some deterioration in a hundred years. Canadian stones are coming into greater use as time goes by. Some domestic quarries are now down 200 feet but some of the granite even at this depth shows minute crack- ings from earth movements in pre- historic ages. Less perfect stones are used for commercial building but as the home quarries become deeper <a slow, laborious process). Cana- dian stones will be used more and more on the retail market. Some Swedish quarries.are down to 1,000 feet and producing stones of extreme hardness which polish up to a perfect beauty. Canadian quarries are still in their infancy. Weight density of granite ranges from 200 pounds per cubic foot to 280 pounds: in Black Swede.

(Bill) Mason, 66, owner and pub- lisher of the Sudbury Star and North Bay Nugget, died in hospital today. He suffered an acute attack of coronary thrombosis last June 8. The thick-set, white-haired pub- lisher, whose full name was William Edge Mason loved a fight whether it was in the field of politics, busi- ness or sport. But he found the | tension of the Ontario election too much for him and entered hospi- tal the day after the Progressive Conservative party, which he sup- ported, was returned to power. The veteran newspaper man, who also operated radio station CKSO in Sudbury, rallied almost daily until his condition took a turn for the worse Monday. One of the northland's best- known figures, Bill Mason was con- sidered a "tough" boss but he mold- ed many men who gained promi- nence in journalism throughout the country. The outspoken man who amassed a fortune from various enterprises had an Alger-like career. He start- ed as a printer's devil and although he directed all branches, until the last he had a fond interest for the "back shops" of his two newspapers. A power behind the scenes in both provincial and federal politics in the north, Bill Mason always had time for sport. He backed numer- ous athletic ventures in Sudbury and was on the executive of the Sudbury Cub' Wolves when that team brought the dominion junior hockey championship to the nickel belt in 1932.
