If you meet a lobster wearing
an aluminum tag, don't waste
sympathy. It wasn’t hauled up
for parking opposite a hy
drant. The tag was put there
by the National Fisheries
Board which is sleuthing out
marine life stories. A salmon,
so decorated, was re-caught
after four years and a lobster
after ten. The tags were still
in excellent condition.
Aluminum’s ability to with
stand the elements is one of
the advantages which make it
increasingly popular for walls,
roofs and architectural embel
lishments. An aluminum cor
