Pipeliners' Jargon A New Language What have pigs, rats and -child- ren's toys to do with laying gas mains under stréets in 'the Te- miskaming area? Plenty, according to' Northern Ontario Natural Gas Company Limited ~ engineers, wno are now staging final tests in "the com- pleted distribution system inCo- chrane. "Pigs" is pipeliners' jargon for the spherical brush that is used to clean the inside 'surface of the pipe before the system is ready to go into operation. The brush, almost the same diameter as the pipe, is forced in an open énd of the pipe; then compressed air is pumped in be- hind it, driving the "'pig" through the length of the pipe. The "'pig"' travels faster than a man can walk, and chips» away rust and scale from the inside Of the pipe as it goes.> A surprising assortment of trash ----everything from toys, to waste paper to small animals, often finds its way inside the pipe dur- ing construction. All of it has to be removed, before gas delivery can begin. The '"pigging" operation has loosened rust and scale inside the pipe; now a special "purging" technique is used to get it out- side. A section of pipe is closed off at one end, and air is pumped in at high pressure. Then a valve is opened at the other end of the section, and the air blows out in a cloud. Blown out with: it however, is all the foreign matter---scale, rust, rats, toys and all. ; AUTHORIZED a PLUS FLAME DEALER TAPPAN BUILT-IN UNITS GAS OVENS The only chrome fined oven on the market GRAYD'S HARDWARE Limited NEW LISKEARD PADDY THE IRISHMAN Well, -not ute Hear him speak each evening except Saturday OCTOBER 22nd TO NOVEMBER 2nd SUNDAY 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. - Haileybury Baptist Church CHILDREN'S MEETINGS AT 6:30 DAILY His "name isn't meus Rev.
