TheV haw: been ieSiolentS Since llaSt fall. l-l'- To the excellent sketch of the life of the late Mrs. Thomas Jack which appeared in last issue of the Chronicle. we would like to add a few words. From boyhood he lived in our midst, attended the old log school of No. 5, was a member of the School Board in later years, a member of Zion church and, also, on its Trustee Board. He was one of its strongest supporters and most generous contributors. As boy. as youth, as man, "Tom" Jack played the man. Goodâ€"hearted. generous. helpful, fond of a bit of fun and humor, proud of his family and al- ways ready to help a deserving cause, or oblige a neighbor, he was ever the best type of Canadian citizen. He left in old Glenelg many warm friends, whose sympathy goes out to his devoted partner, the members of the family and the brothers and sisters._ 1“. A.“ V-‘ivvâ€"‘r Wilfrid, second oldest son of Mr. and Mrs, Michael Quillinan, passed away very suddenly at one o’clock on Thursday morning. after but a three days’ illness from kidney trouble. He was out doing the chores on Saturday. when he took a severe chill. followed by convul- sions. Dr. Caret‘oot ot‘ Markdale was untiring in his efforts to save him. remaining all night on the case. Some two years ago. he suffered from a very severe attack of pneumonia and, apparently. the system had become poisoned from the fell disease, Wilfrid was in his 18th year, was a‘fine type of youth.

Experienced A few months ago, when the embers of a certain scientific society were visiting .a foundry some of them were surprised in the porcelain enamelling shop when they saw the men at work giving a“ bath its various coats of enamel dust before it appeared in its fin- ished state of snowâ€"white beauty. Some of the party apparently thought that the enamel was apâ€" plied with a brush. After a bath casting has left the moulders’ sand heap. it is taken to the dressing or fettling shop, where it is carefully cleaned, filed and sandblasted. Itis then very closely examined for any defects likely to cause trouble during the process of enamelling, and if found satisfac- tory it is passed for attention. Some firms anneal every bath before enamelling is attempted, and in this case sandblasting, etc., takes place after annealing. The first process in the porcelain shop is to see that all foreign mat- ter is removed from the casting, and to do this the bath is scoured out with sandstone or oarborundum blocks and w.ater It is then ready for its first or ground coat, which is a preparation to enable the ienamel to adhere to the iron. Once the grounds are dried the bath is placed in the mufl‘le or furnace, and brought by stages to a white heat, when it is withdrawn, and the duster and his assistants apply the first coat of enamel, which is in the form of a very fine powder, and is shaken from a re- ceptacle with a sieve bottom, on to the casting. This operation must be done very quickly to ensure that the bath is properly covered while in a heated state so that the enamel may fuse uniformly. During the process the bath isturned round on HOW BATES ARE ENAMBLLBD a revolving and tilting table. and when covered to the satisfaction of the chief duster, it is again put back to the muffle. After ten min- utes or so it is removed, a second coat is applied, and the bath is again put back. On removal a third coat is given, special attention heâ€" ing paid to the roll, waste outlet, or soap sinkings to ensure that these parts have a thorough coat- mg. After its final immersion in the muffle the bath is allowed to cool, when all sharp pieces of enamel are removed by rubbing with pum- ice .stone. It_ is then inspected .by various. examiners, and on receivmg their approval it is given a prime coat of paint outside. and is then ready for despatch to a waiting customer. A haughty lady had just purchas- ed a postage stamp at a substation. “Must I stick it on myself?” she asked. hâ€"“Positively not, madam,” replied the clerk. “It will accomplish more if you stick it on the letter.” Hén‘der 8011’s Bale creasing number 0 deaths, fatal accidents to passenâ€" gers on railways of the country have dwindled almost to the vanâ€"- Ishing point, due to better camp- ment and the greater exerclse of safety precautions.
