The label will stick if it is first brushed over lightly with either a cut onion or melted par- affin. A little brown sugar added to paste has the same effect. Gummed adhesive tape also makes a good label toe' lin. Q. How can I mix paint thor- oughly before using? A. Before opening a can of paint, turn it upside down and leave it in this position for a while. This will aid in mixing it thoroughly. Q.

The glands pour out ad- renalin. Some classic experiments made years ago by Dr. Walter B. Cannon (Harvard) have shown how essential adrenalin is in the emotional life of all higher ani- mals. It stimulates the heart 50 that it cane work harder. Without it there is no fight in man or beast. Dr. George W. Stavraky (Uni- versity of Western Ontario) has applied this knowledge for the benefit of the Royal Canadian Air Force. He conducted research to discover the effects of a deficiency ot oxygen at altitudes of more than 10,000 feet. He determined the exact amounts of oxygen and carbon dioxide needed for the best action of adrenal glands. He found that unless a menet blood contains certain amounts of both oxygen and carbon dioxide the ad- renale do not perform their func- tion efficiently. Hence the man can't fight. —o— SULFA FOR SiCK TREES .After a five-year test, F. A. Bartlett, a. tree expert, announces that the bleeding canker disease of had trees oau be successfully treated by injections ot one of the sulfonamides. Ailing trees treated by the method and proper- ly fed showed an average annual increase of twig growth of more than three inches over similar trees neither treatednor fed. The new method of treatment was in- itiated at Rhode Island State Col- lege several years ago when it was discovered that trees in sev- eral Eastern States were dying of an unknown twist's. After isola- tion, the disease proved to be bleeding canker. The compound, a "sulfa" derivative, was applied through injections.

Bell, Director -General of Air- craft Production, told a meeting of electrical men in Toronto re- cently. Bell disclosed that 7,000 'planes had been made in Canada since the industry was launched less than three years ago. Of these, he added, more than 1,200 are in operation on fighting fronts, mostly Hurricane fighters. Bell termed the aircraft indus- try one of the few arising from the war "for which a commercial post-war future reasonably can be visualized." BIG PROFITS IN GOLD STOCKS Have You Heard? ?
