Beurling, Canada's Number One
flying ace and hero of many air battles
over Malta, who has just completed
a coast to coast tour of Canadatnsiting
R.C.A.F. stations, made a large part
of the long tripby Trans -Canada Air
Lines. Here he is at Moncton air port
previous to departure on the last leg
of his journey, from Moncton to
Montreal, seated at the controls of a
big T.C.A. passenger liner talking to
Captain J. R. Bowker, who piloted
the plane. At Winnipeg Beurling was
greeted by Wing Commander D. R.
MacLaren, T.C.A.ssuperintendentof
passenger service, and one of Canada's
leading air aces of the last war.
WHAT SCIENCE
IS DOING
AMMONIA GOES TO WAR
A.mmonia, common to the house-
liiold for cleaning woodwork, tiles
anti windows; to the first-aid kit
ac a stimulant, and to the ice
factory as a refrigerant, is an in-
dispensable war material, says
"Scientific American."
There are at least 2,000 indus-
trial uses for this chemical. Am-
monia, for instance, is an ingre-
dient basic to the manufacture of
explosives for bombs, torpedoes,
shells and cartridges.
It hardens metals for vital
parts of airplanes, tanks and guns,
It helps vulcanize important rub-
ber articles. It is used in making
nylon. It enters into the manu-
facture of fertilizers. It is em-
ployed in one proeess for the
manufacture of "Lucite" methyl
methacrylate plastic for the noses,
gun turrets, navigation "blisters,"
and other transparent sections of
fighting airplanes.
Synthesized by Du Pont and
others from the elements of air
and water with the aid of coal,
ammonia simply is one part nitro-
gen chemically combined with
three parts of hydrogen.
Ammonia plus oxygen produces
nitric acid. Furthermore, nitric
acid enters into the manufacture
of cellulose nitrate plastics, which
have many military applications.
Gaseous ammonia flowing
across heated steelunder proper
conditions imparts a hard, wear
resistant surface over the soft
sore without changing the dimen-
sions of the metal. This process,
called
"nitriding," is necessary to
many metal parts for airplanes,
tanks, guns and ships.
Ammonia helps in refining pet-
roleum products. Crude petroleum
contains acid harmful to stills,
and these acids are neutralized by
the addition of small amounts of
amin onia.
In fertilizers, ammonia is used.
for the aminoniation of superphos-
phate and for the manufacture of
, urea .and of sodium nitrate --syn
thetie Chile saltpetre.
Synthetic urea, made from am-
monia and carbon dioxide, is basic
to the manufacture of ammonium
sulfamate, the new industrial
chemical used for flame proofing
workmen's clothes, uniforms, and
other textiles. Urea formaldehyde
plastics have numerous military
applications.
Ammonia is used in the manu-
facture of vat dyes, and in wool
scouring to remove fats, waxes
and dirt. Long and varied is the
list of achievements of this rela-
tively inconspicuous chemical.
"It Can't Be Done"
But lee Does It
Sign in a motor engineering
works:
According to the theory of aero-
dynamics, and as may be readily
demonstrated through wind tun-
nel experiments, the bumblebee Is
unable to fly. This is because the
size, weight, and shape of his body
in relation to the total wingspread
make flying impossible.
But the bumblebee, being ignor-
ant of these scientific truths, goes
ahead and flies anyway—and makes
a little honey every day.

Modern Etiquette

1. What should at girl do when
arriving ata dance, and her escort
is not around when she comes
out of the dressing room?
2, Should the cutting edge of
the knife be placed toward the
plate or away from it?
3. Is the year usually given
when dating a social letter?
4. Is it necessary for a person
to apologize for the .crunching
nosie that results when eating
hard toast, or something of than.
nature ?
5. When should a lean wear a
"cutaway" coat?
6. In what way does a formal
invitation differ from an informal
one?
Answers
1. Stand away from the dan-
cers until her escort appears. A
girl should try to time her ap-
pearance from the dressing room
so that her escort will be waiting
for her. 2. The sharp edge of
each knife should always be turn-
ed toward the plate. 3. No, 4.
Not when it is unavoidable. A
little practice; however, will en-
able one to avoid much of this
crunching noise. 5. The "cuta-
way" is worn at any formal day-
time occasions such as receptions,
afternoon weddings, teas, or fun-
erals. 6. The only difference lies
in the phrasing.

Have You Heard?
Gracie Fields told the story of
'Erbert 'Awkins, only 4 feet 11,
who quarreled so violently with
his wife that .he didn't hear an
air-raid alarm. As he stamped
out, slamming the door, a bomb
landed nearby, bringing his house
down around his elms.
When a rescue squad dug him
out an hour later, one man ob-
served:
"Blime, but you're a little fel-
low."
Replied 'Erbert, gazing proudly
at the wreckage. "I niay be little,
but can I slam a door!"
Browne was 'phoning his
wife from the office.
"Hullo, dear," he said.
"I'm very sorry, but I won't
be home till very late to-
night. I'm fire -watching."
"Oh, you are, are you,"
swapped his wife. "And who
is the flame?"
"What are you studying' now?"
asked the new -rich mother of her
youngest son.
"We have just begun the study
of molecules," he answered..
For a moment she looked blank;
then a gleam of interest showed
in her eyes.
"I hope you will be attentive
and practice constantly," she ex-
claimed eagerly. "I tried to get
your father to wear one, but he
couldn't keep it in his eye."
Man: Watcha cryin' for?
Boy: I lost my nickel,
Man: Where?
Boy: In Virginia.
Man: How come? '
Boy: She swallowed it.

BACKACHE?
Look out for Trouble
With Your KIDNEYS
,Jtfll, The latter, out to even
things, leant across the table to
ask, with A grin:
"'Do you,know that of the 50,-
000 people in this town, three-
fourths are clergymen?"
"Rot!" snapped Jun.
"It's true. The Rev, Fourth
;••and his two parson sons!"
If your back aches or if you have
disturbed sleep, burning or smarting, look
out for trouble. This condition is a sure
sign that your kidneys are not fully
ridding your blood of poisonous acids
and wastes. When the kidneys slow up,
wastes collect. Backache, dizzy spells,
puffy eyes and rheumatic pains may follow.
Your kidneys need help—and there is a
time -tried. proven way to help them

This Is A Land,
Sea And Air War
General MaeArthur's brilliant
victory in the Bismarck Sea, in
which a Jap fleet of 22 ships was
wiped out by land-based planes,
should not be misinterpreted to
mean that land-based planes alone
tan win the war.
The planes that sank the ships
took off from bases conquered,
after long and hard fighting, by
land troops. These I: nd troops
were brought to the battlefield
'by ships under naval convoy. The
bombs the planes carried, and the
gasoline that fueLd them, were
transported to the air bases by
ship. In reality, therefore, the
operation that sank the .Tap fleet
. was a combined naval, land and
air peration.
When the time comes to make
another advance against Japan, a
new combined operation will be
required, in which land, sea and
air forces must all take their av-
pointed part.
The New Wing:
Bulilt In 1377!
Lord Crangoren, the ser. -Minister
ol: Colonies and Britain's Lord
Privy Seal, recently was vislted
at his home in Cranborne by a
young American who recited his
geneology---tracing his American
ancestry back to the Mayflower
days. "Come with nee. I want
to show you this house," Lord
Cranboren interrupted. "Now take
this part—this is the new wing,"
"The NEW wing?" asked the Am-
erican. "It lgoks so old," "It was
built In 1377," the host informed,
"but nevertheless — it's the new
wing." — Leonard Lyons in The
New York Post.

"We must help King George, but
how can we?"
"We, cannot send men, for it's
too far and we have no money,"
he said. "But what have we?
Cattle, Let each one give a cat-

This was not good enough for
