Made by a process inâ€" vented by Brandenberger, a Swiss chemist working in France, and fiirst used chiefly in making womâ€" en‘s hats, this material is now used for literally hundreds of different purposes. Although first made in Canada in 1932, the growth of transparent cellulose film has inâ€" creased very rapidly. Transparent cellulose film and rayon are true sisters, both being the children of cellulose from the spruce tree and cotton linters. In the case of rayon, a cellulose soluâ€" tion made by treating purified wood pulp or cotton linters with caustic soda and carbon bisulphide is forced through the microscopic holes of a "spinneret" into a chemical bath, which changes the tiny streams ofi "liquid cellulose" back into filaments of solid celluâ€" lose. In the manufacture of transâ€" parent cellulose film, the viscose solution is forced out into the chemical bath through a long narâ€" row slit instead of a spinneret, and the result is a thin film of cellulose. Further chemical and physical opâ€" erations,â€"bleaching, washing, etc., leave the completed film transparâ€" ent, sparkling, strong, flexible, odourless, oilâ€"proof, airâ€"proof, gasâ€" proof and germâ€"proof. While transparent cellulose film made in this way, and coloured with dyestufis if desired, found OF the many products made by the chemist using cellulose as a raw material, none has had a more rapid or sensational rise than transparent â€" cellulose film, best known Iy the tradeâ€"name "Celloâ€" Cellulose Comes From Wood From Wood Pulp to Transparent Film severely with drunken drivers.

In the name of humanity drive safely on this, the first holiday of summer. Help make the highways safe for yourself and others. Last year the holiday traffic on our streets and highways ran up a terrible toll of seven killed and 215 injured in 145 accidents! We must not have a repetition this year. One thoughtless move on your part may bring tragedy into your own or somebody else‘s home. Before you take the wheel, therefore, resolve to use the utmost care on the highway, and to observe every traffic rule. â€"Drive at a safe speed at all times. â€"Keep to the right hand side of the road. â€"Never pass another vehicle on a hill or curve, or any point where the view is obstructed. MAY 24"" DRIVE SAFELY! a wrapping sudden changes in the weather. It would seem, in fact, that the useâ€" fulness of this sparkling transparâ€" ent film as a decorative and proâ€" tective material is limited on‘ly by the imagination of the user. Aifter several years of experiâ€" mental work in the laboratory, a moistureproof film was perfected which led to a revolution in packaging. When wrapped in this moistureproof film, cigars and cigarettes retained their desirable characteristics for a much longer period. The wastage in cakes and other bakery products was greatly reduced because this moistureâ€" proof film preserved them. Meats appeared in this new wrapper, thus insuring freshness and cleanâ€" liness. The use of moistureproof cellulose film spread to fruits and other perishable foods, until today the average grocery store contains dozens of products kept fresh by it. It is generally conceded today that this transparent film is an aid to public health since foodstuffs, textiles and other items wrapped in it are not readily contaminated with disease germs. wrapper for goods which quickly become dry and stale. In addition to its use for wrarâ€" ping all kinds of articles, transpar« ent cellulose film is used for many other purposes. In the form of narâ€" row ribbons it is woven into attracâ€" tive fabric for curtains. Fifty thousand yards of sparkling cellâ€" ulose film were used to make the moonbeams in the motion picture presentation of "A Midâ€"Summer Night‘s Dream." In the theatre it has been used for costumes, in the radio world for making sound cfiects, by surgeons as an outâ€" side dressing so that the proâ€" gress of wounds might be observâ€" ed, and on the farm as a cover for early plants to protect them from ONTARIO DEPARTMENT OF HIGHWAYS sso iA hiicke we should be able to teach ourselves to handle steeringâ€"wheels safely." _ ‘"There is nothing vague or diffiâ€" cult to understand about any of these rules," Mr. McQueston insistâ€" ed. "Anyone who has been given a license to drive is capable of followâ€" ing these principles. The only thing that is needed to make our highways safe is a determination on the part of every driver that he will carry out _ every _ rule â€" of safety _ all the time.

Most people, Mr. McQuegton pointâ€" ed out, have little difficulty in keeping the Ten Commandments. â€" They are few, easy to remember, and any vioâ€" lations are quickly recognized, at least by the violator. "Why then," he queried, "should it be any more difficult to observe the few, simple rules that are designed _ "It is not very many years ago" said Mr. McQueston.

At birth the differâ€" ence in expectation of life is two years in favor of the girl infant, alâ€" though after the first year the adâ€" vantage is reduced somewhat. Howâ€" live Lacking, perhaps, a little color in the face, Mr. Binnie otherwise greatly belied his years as, standing erect and voice firm, he told the company something of the early days Of railâ€" roading in British Columbia. He told them of the first train to cross the Rockies and had its ventilors sheared from the roofs of the coaches and doors torn off because the B. C. tunâ€" nels had been built to a smaller de sign than others across the continent. Mr .Binnie ultimately got the job of enlarging the mountain tunnels." ‘ health, he said he was still going strong, but credited his virility to the contractors who were . building the Canadian Pacific Railway, and he took a sub contract to clear the spur line to Fraser Mills, He finished the job the first day the train came through, and threw in his lot with the railroadmen. He was ever since !connected with the Co. until retiring a few years ago.
