8 2 *, "WATER FACTOR IN FLAVORING OF TEA Londoi's Womun Taster Gives Yiews on Beverage —i London, Feb. 10 (M—Bad tea is often due to the water used in mak- ing ft and every careful tea-drinker should have the water with which she makes the tea.tested to make sure that it harmonizes: well with the brand of tea ahe is using. This is the dictum of Londen's enly professional woman tea-taster, ' Miss Margaget Jrv “Water can ehtirely chahge the eharacter of tea,” gaid Miss Irving. “For example, in Scotland, where the water is very soft, Darjecling teas are especially pepular because the water accentuates the best quali- ties of that particular growth.” Mincing Lane is now in the throes of winter tea sales and Miss Trving is busy passing judgment on lots upon which buyers are bidding. Frequently shé has to taste as many as 300 les a day. First she smells the dry leaves, to determine their exact quality and origin, Then water brought to the ‘boiling point is poured into 300 pots econtaining samples and after these have stood for exactly six minutes Miss Irving tastes each of the brews. She merely sips the tea and dons not swallow it, Out of 300 samples ordinarily about 50 are chosen as most desir- able, Indian tea is sold one day. Ceylon is offered on the ,following day and & separate day is given to Java tea and another to China tea. Special brands or grades of tea do not necessarily come from a special sort of plants, but are a definite sort of leaf from any plant. The most expensive tea comes from planta which are grown at the high- est altitude. Students of Marovasarhely high school, Budapest, have been for- bidden the uso of necktics. i1l Quu!ion.

CARMODY.) In the field of airplane manufac- taken almost daily, metal construc- tion rapidly is gaining ground. The significance of the trend tcward metal is most clearly revealed in a study of the specification of new planes being placed upon the mar- ket, together with those of new de- signs of planes that have been in production for years. Such a study indicates beyond cavil that the adop- | units—in many designs all of them | —is forcing the various woods once used in plane fabrication into con- | stantly more limited application. March Towsrd Metals. The march toward metals is espe- | cially noteworthy in the building of civil purpeses. Light, fast planes istill embody many units of spruce, balsam and other light, strong woods and, experta believe, they will go on doing ®o long after every large air- craft is an “all-metal” product. The navy, which has done consid- erable experimentation and pioneer- ing in metal, plane construction makes an interesting and logical case for this type of fabrication. That the navy should be a pioneer in this field is not surprising for its aircraft are built for water use and water and wood are two old and bitter enemies, although man has succeede marvelously in discovering barriers to put between them, such as paints, olls and other finishea The steel that goes into the con- struction of aircraft is clalmed to have many advantages and, although disputed in some quarters, lighter weight is one of these. Among the chief virtues of metal is that its strength is constant; that is, one piece is as atrong as an- other, whereas in wood this is not always the case even when it s of the same species. Other superior qualities claimed for the metals used in airplane construction may be list- ed as follows: They do not swell and contract, neceseary. due to variations in temperature and humidity. They are not subject to rot and decay. They reduce fire hazard. They are not attacked by Insects. Another advantage very definitely attributed to metal construction fa that it is fn nowlse £o0 limited in the ways it may be worked. Wooden joints may be put together in any one of four ways; mortised, glued. bolted or wrapped. In the case of metal riveting, folding, bolting. weld- ing, soldering, or brazing may be saving. gain prices. ture where progressive strides are | jtion of steel and duralumin for many | large planes for both military and | thus making resetting and trucing | They do not warp, split or twist | in Construction of Large Ships Built for Both Civil and Military Uses. employed to make a joint having much greater strength, according to proponents of this form of plane fabrication. Navy Dept. Figures. The navy has compiled very defin- ite figures to substantiate the claim that metal construction is lighter than wood. The hull of the PN-7 planea, fabricated of wood, weighs 12.340 pounds while that of the PN- 10 ships, of the same dimensions but made of metal, weighs only 1,810 pounds, a net saving of 539 pounds or 23 per cent of the total. The _saving that is effected in the wings | of the latter plane also is consider~ able. The ribs made of wood weigh, 1.53 pounds, wherear those of metal |scale only 1.17. FEight pounds are |saved in the metal wing beams which weigh 56 pounds each as 2gainst 64 for those of wood fabrica- tion. The greatest difference is to be found in the ailerons. In allerons made of wood, the e\ructure of each viithout the fabric weigh 73 pounds. Wherc metal is used, the weight is cnly 37.50 pounds. In addition to its uniform strength this factor of any metal may be de- termined with the greatest of accur- acy by fairly' simple tests, The su- periority of meta? in this respect de- mands iess of a factor of safety for fhe samc degree' of assured per- formance frour a plane. Corrosion is one of the very def- inite obstacles raised in gome quar- ters to the use of metal in various plane units and proponents of metai swers to this argument. In the past, metal construction of all Kinds, from tin roofs to automobiles, has been safeguarded in this respect by a profective coating of paint. So general is the practice of painting | netals exposed to the weather that { the sight of ‘one of the large modern |all-metal transport planes in natural finish is the subject of wonderment 10 the layman. The answer of one large manu- facturer of this type of ship is in- teresting. Tt is left unpainted, he declares, In the belief that ff it fs regularly cleaned and polished, it is less subject to weathering than by any other treatment. The long, hard usage in all kinds of weather to which some of these products are suhjected goes far toward substan- tiating this claim., Much Metal Used. Fven in the lighter planes which | continue to use spruce and other | wooda, mostly in wing construction, a great deal of metal is used. Al- most all fuselages are of welded ateel tubing, though most of them are covered with fabric instead ov the duralumin which s used in larg- Lave developed some interesting an- | FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1928 er planes. Propellers made of steel and duralumin are achieving n- creasingly great popularity, although this uit of the airplane, of whatever material it is constructed, is regard- ed as among the least efficient. Metal “props” are almost univer- sally employed In planes that are used on water—particularly on salt water where the unit is subjected to a generous &pray which greatly shortens the life of many types. Empennages, the collection of units at the tail of the airplane, cated in metals.” There is one respect, at least, where wood has a noticeable edge over metal—in {nitial cost. Propon- ents of the latter, however, declare that the greater original cost i more than offset by the decrezse In upkeep expense. On the whole, metals definitely are on the upgrade in the manufac- ture of =zirplanes. Whether they will eontinue to follow this curve or meet the fate that they have met in*the manufacture of automobiles —in body censtruction they definite- Iy have had their ups and downs— is a matter that time will decide.
