One of«the season's crop of debutantes, or a wellknown society woman, could set an example to other women if she would take her car to a garage, have the tire mileage estimated, and figure out just how many miles per week she could drive up to 1946. What driving would she have to cut out to keep within her budget? How can she plan to save enough mileage for that trip she wants to take? In saving tire mileage, will she walk or use public transportation systems? tains an average of 160 pounds of cast iron, 3.6 pounds of brass, 5.5 pounds of copper wire and 40 pounds of steel. The over-age piano is a much bulkier invited to at- affair and would yield considerably more metal. Estimated conservatively, the nar tion's 2,800,000 obsolete pianos contain the following metals: 10,080,000 pounds of brass; 15,400,000 pounds of copper wire; 112,000,000 pounds of steel and 428.000,000 pounds of cast iron. In additoin, they hold a potential yield of 6,000,000 pounds of felt and millions of feet of high grade lumber. Player pianos also are a source of considerable rubber tubing.
