A Numeer of ancient English churches are replacing their equally ancient roofs with alumi- num. One of these is the Chapel of St, James in thegwillage of Nether Warton, Oxfordshire. Its lead roof, originally laid in 1665, brought £478 as scrap -- enough to pay the whole cost of installing the new roof. It is a neat example of how, while most metals have been get- ting more expensive through the centuries, the cost of aluminum has been going down. Aluminum Company of Canada, Ltd.

The cutting parts of the drill are made of nickel alloy steel because it lasts longer and cuts quicker than most other materials. © TORONTO,
