medical checkup and that mothers
take advantage of immunization.

Aluminum was named by a man
who never saw it. In 1807 the
great scientist Sir Humphrey
Davy decided that alumina had
^metallic base, but failed to find
a way to extract the metal. But
he went ahead anyway and
christened the unseen metal
“aluminum”. Later he changed
his mind and re-named it alu
minium. Both versions are
still used.
Wonder if the English scientist
ever dreamed of the day when,
in far-off Canada, millions of
hydro-electri c h orsepo wer would
unlock the riches of alumina to
produce more than 500,000 tons
of aluminum a year?
