ns Do to Germany Control amos / orma® CV Remedy For "Shatter Cracks" . Declared One of Most Imâ€" portant Research Adâ€" vances in Years Reducing the danger of train wrecks «ue to faulty rails to an absolute miniâ€" mum, a new method of treating the atee! used 4o rail manufacture, as deâ€" veloped by Canadian experts, is hailed as the most important improvement in this field to be announced in years. It has been known for a number of years that whenever a rail has falled or split due to what is known to enâ€" gineers as a transverse fissure, or crack in the steel, microscopic examâ€" ination of the faulty piece showed a number of small cracks in the centre of the mass of metal. Engineers gradually _ became _ convinced that these cracks were the cause of split rails, but were unable to find a way of preventing them. It was observed that the same type of cracks, called "shatâ€" ter cracks" by metallurgists, could be tound in new rails that had never been n service, so it was concluded that they were produced during the preâ€" paration of the steel. * Details of the research were anâ€" nounced recently by the Canadian Inâ€" stitute of Chemistry. * It remained for I. C. Mackie, well known Canadian metallurgist and Felâ€" low of the Caradian Institute of Chemâ€" istry, working in the Sydney laboraâ€" tories of the Dominion Steel and Coal Corporation, to discover the remedy. His process, considered by technical men the most important advance in recent years, consists in a special heat treatment of the metal. Usually, when the steel, redâ€"hot, leaves the ro!ls in the rolling mill, it is cooled down fairâ€" y quickly, especially after it has reached what metal workers call the "black heat" stageâ€"that is, when all redness has disappeared but the steel still has a temperature of 500 or 600 degrees. Mr. Mackie discovered that it is at this stage that the minute cracks, which later result in failure of the tracks, develop, and he worked out a special way of treating the steel to avold this trouble. The new process consists in cooling the steel down very slowly, so slowly indeed that it takes over 24 hours for a rail to cool by this method as against three or four by the usual procedure. Mr. Mackie and his colleagues hay© found that this treatment is a 100 per cent. cure for the troublesome "shatâ€" ter cracks." A great advantage of the method is that it has no effect on the hardness of the steel. Of course, as pointed out by Mr. Mackie, rails made by this process aave not yet ‘been in service long enough to prove by practical test that ‘hey will not fail, but as all engineers are agreed that the failure is due to these minute cracks, and as the new process completely eliminates these cracks, it is reasonable to suppose that the rails will stand up better in use than those made in the ordinary way. A body of Austrian scientists have made up their minds to continue their venture of fifty years ago and are goâ€" ing to examine the magnetic, electric and meteorological conditions in the north of the Island of Mayen, writes the Vienna correspondent of "The Lonâ€" Jon Sunday Observer." The Austrian explo.ers are going to spend more than a year on this very remote little island. They will start on thoir expedition late in the spring and will not be back before the end of 1933. During that time they will be cut off from the outside world. ‘The climate of the island is extremely sold and wet anl the explorers will have to take all their foodstuffs, inâ€" struments and other necessitles with Canadian metallurgists consider this discovery to be of prime importance, and are gratified that, while others have studied this problem for a numâ€" ber of years, its final successful soluâ€" tlon was worked out by a Canadian. By Dr. Abraham Flexner The world is not yet civilized. None the less it is a better world toâ€"day than at any time in history.

Most players are apt to judge by results at Auction or Contract, rather than by analysis, and there is nothing more harmful ift a player really and sincerely wishes to improve his game. Sound bidding is based on probabilities, not upon cerâ€" tainties. If you or any player at the table fails to make his bid, analyze the hand before deciding whether the bid was good or bad.

The telephone summoned the farmer who had just introduced us to his oldest son. "Get the truck out, George," said the father as he came into the sitting room. We can load that syrup right now. Tom Caldwell over at the village will give us today‘s price if we deliver by sundown." We were in quest of a story on farm conditions as we piloted our gasoline buggy up the wellâ€"kept driveway to Cloverdale Farm. As the son left the house, his father sat down and we had a fine chat. "You no doubt heard me speaking at the telephone and what I told my son just now," said he. ‘‘Well, I have had a good run of maple syrup this spring. The quotations over the radio today sounded low so I immediately called up some dealers in the towns around here telling them I had 100 gallons and my price; they said they would let me know. That telephone call was from Tom Caldwell over at Springville saying to bring the syrup over at once. As you can see for yourself, we are trying to keep pace with the times here in all departments of the work. * ‘"The biggest thing of all on the farm today is to take advantage quickly of o th_e opportunities we hear about and the telephone enables us to do this very thingâ€"it is worth many times its cost."

Contract Bidding: Z should bid one spade. One of the lessons learned by Contract players, as distinguished from Auction players, is to prefer a suit bid to no trump if the suit is in any way : sound bid. In this instance the spade suit is a sound bid and, therefore, preferred to the no trump. A should bid two diamonds, and Y should bid three spades. B must pass and Z should bid four spades, which can be made against any defense. Auction Bidding 0 No score, first game. Z dealt and Te elected to bid one no trump.
