What’s the matter with the present younger generation that so much ef- fort should be directed to turning out; a ‘milk fed” race? The faddists are now directing their efforts to abolish- ing home work. No one seems to know why, unless it be to give the school folk more time to dance, go to the movies or burn up gasoline with the old bus. It wouldn’t be so bad if they took the extra time to develop an athletic body. But the whole trend now is away from strenuous games like lacrosse, which takes real stamina to play. In fact, a good many young people nowadays are too tired to swing a tennis racquet. We doubt very much whether our young people will be help- ed by making things too easy for themâ€"in fact, we think they will be injured. Mac Reddaway, candidate for the mayoralty in the boys’ council, Toronto. has a plank in his platform am strongly in favor of home work in the secondary schools. It is the only opportunity the students get of fitting themselves for independent action in future life.

It is noticeable that pupils in the country schools have a more independent spirit than those in the city. This self-reliance will be shown in future life. I consider that home work is the only means of creat- ing this attitude.” John S.

Radio panels, coil tubes and condenser parts are numbered among radio’s applications A manufacturer of loose-leaf books is using this material for the covers of loose- leaf binders because of its durability and high finish. . Because of its wonderful ability to withstand fabrication by means of punching dies, its insulation value, low moisture absorption and little change of dimension caused by variations in temperature, micarta is being used by large manufacturers of automatic tele- phone equipment on the automatic control switchboard. Another wide application is that of pump washers. Fan blades made of micarta are being used where quiet operation is desired. Because it has so many and varied uses, the physical characteristics of micarta are interestingâ€"particularly when it is considered that it is a new material made out of paper, or in some cases fabric, treated with organ- ‘ic binder and then subjected to heat and tremendous pressure. Although it is made of paper, it will not absorb oil or water. It machines accurately gand can be drilled, tapped. sawed or “punched. It is hard, resilient, will not warp, expand or shrink with age, and it takes a high polish. It is this strange and uncommon combination of dwirable properties that has found for micarta such a multitude of uses.
