Wood Stronger' Than See!.
Wood is one of the strongest sub-
stances in the world, but its strength
lies in one direction only. A thin strip
of WOO d Mit with the grain will wale
,stseid about three times as heavy
pull as steel wire of equal weight. But
if the strain is ,across the grain the
eteip will be broken by quite a small
weight. You cannot pull a stick in
two, but yofu can snalyit easily across
your. knee.
It occurred to an -inventor some,tints
ago that it woulid be possible by usirug
several layers' of,wood, -cut at various
angles to the- grain, to produce.a ma-
terial of enormous strength. end so
plywood -wits made, which, weight for
weight, as vastly stronger than steel.
r.elie layers., sometimes -no more than
oneactinclredth of an ineh thick are
glued together axle subjected to great
pressure,. The result le a material lit-
tle thiekr than stout paper which will
bend but not break.
It is 'being- used nowadays for all
kin,ds of•puxposes where strength and
lightness axe, required. lt ie even em-
ployed for making ,the wings of :tem.
