the physical qualities which industry
demands. The synthetic rubber that
Germany produced during the war

not be readily vulcanized; it lacked

why may he not increase the yied of

They will have achieved another

London,—The debt of gratitude
which was felt by Charles Dickens to
the journeyman printer, through
whose skill and industry Dickens's
own works reached the world, has
been strikingly and unexpectedly dis-
played through a newly discovered re-
cord of a speech he made in 1864:' It
has turned up during a search of the
archives of the Printers' Pension,
Almshouse, and Orphan Asylum Cor-
poration. ,
Charles Dickens was twice chair-
man of this organization, in 1843 and
1864. It was in the preparation of
material for the institution's centen-
ary that the discovery was made. In
accepting his second chairmanship af-
ter the lapse of years, Mr. Dickens
said:
"I have served,: three apprentice-
ships to life since 1 last presided over
one of the festivals of this society. It
is 21 years since I first occupied this
chair. How many chairs have I taken :
since then? I might, in truth, say a
whole pantechnicon of chairs, and in
having worked my way round, I feel
that I have come home again.
"The printer ,is a faithful servant, !
not only for those connected with the'
business, but for the public at large,
and has, therefore, when laboring un-'
der infirmity, and distress, an especial
claim on all for support. Without
claiming for him• the whole merit of
the work produced by his skill, labor,
endurance, and intelligence, without
him what would be the state of the
world at large? Why, tyrants and
humbugs in all countries would have
everything .their own way.
"I am certain there are not fn any
