E
tians Invented Paper
Man has always thought that
it is important to keep a record
of his spoken words, and he
scratched his very first "writ-
ing' on rocks and bones in the
form of rough pictures.
Much later on, real writing
developed, and this was often
made on clay tiles which were
afterwards dried or baked. La-
ter still, inks were used to write
on leather, linen, or silk.
It was the Egyptians who,
more than 5, 000 years ago,
first produced a kind of "paper",
They discovered that the
papyrus plant, which grows on
the banks of the River Nile,
could he stripped like an onion,
and the thin pieces hammered
together in layers until they
formed a stiff sheet.
For centuries papyrus was the
only writing "paper. until,
about 2, 000 years ago, a rival
to it was invented in Pergamos,
a city in Asia Minor, Animal
skins were specially treated to
make this new "paper" and it
became known as parchment.
While the rest of the world
was still recording words on
plant fibers and leather, how-
ever, the Chinese, also about
'2, 000 years ago, began to
make a writing material which
was far more like our modern
paper than anything known be-
fore.
They boiled up rags and
sometimes plant stems into a
pulp which was washed and
beaten with hammers or stones.
They then put the pulp into
a tub of water and dipped a
reed sieve into it which was

The pulp layer was dried

This knowledge of real pa-
permaking remained secret in
China until about 1,100 years
ago when the Arabs captured
some Chinese paper -makers at
Samarkand.
As a result of this a paper
mill was founded in Baghdad by
the famous Haroun Alrashid and
soon the new art was spreading
all over the world, finally
reaching England in 1490.
In that century paper gradu-
ally began to take the place of
parchment, except for book-
binding.
If you hold any good piece
of paper up to the light you
will notice that it is "water-
marked." Paper marked in
this interesting way was first
produced in Italy in the 11th
century.
Watermarking is done by
having a slightly raised pattern
on the sieve or mold, thusmak-
ing the paper a little thinner
at a certain point. These
special marks were, and still
are, used to indicate the qual-
ity, size, or manufacturer of
the paper.
Although papermaking is
done by machinery today, the
method we use is almost iden-
tical to the original Chinese
invention.
The pulp used to be ham-
mered by hand right up to the

Far Fire Use
Fire Chief James Carr and
Deputy Chief Dave Crothers
plan to go to London next week

lon tanks which are available.
If one is purchased it will be

ter as an added source of supply
at rural fires.
The firemen have also been
busy this week painting the fire
hall which has smartened up the
building considerably.
PERFECTIONISTS SUFFER
Migraine headaches tend to
be common in educated, intel-
ligent people; often in perfec-
tionists who want everything
just so. The tendency to inher-
it migraine is often due to be-
ing brought up in an environ-
ment in which there is no re-
laxation of high standards. Dr,
Deryck Thorpe, M. B. , B.S.,
in the English magazine, "Bet-
ter Health" states the exact
cause of migraine is not known,
although mental anxiety and
tension are likely to he at its
root.
If you are concerned about
your headache, Dr. Thorpe ad-
vises you to consult your doc-
tor who will establish whether
there are physical causes,
late 16th century, when stamp-
ing mills, driven by water or
horses, were introduced.
The first actual paper ma-
chine was not invented until
1803.
Today almost all our paper
is made from chemically pulp-
ed wood. Straw and esparto
grass are also widely used, and
cotton and linen are pulped on-
ly for the most expensive papet
such as is needed for bank notes
and legal documents.
Fire Caught in
Time at Lloyds
The local fire brigade was
called to the Lloyd -Truax north
plant at 10.15 on Saturday eve-
ning when a sawdust bin took
fire.
The firemen soaked the bin
down with water for an hour
and the bin was cleaned out the
next day. Damage was of a
minor nature. Friction in a
sawdust flower fan was stated to
be the cause of the trouble,
