VALUABLE GLUE INSTRUCTION
Forest Products Laboratory Gives Out Facts for
Glue Users in Factories.
The Forest Products Laboratory of the United
States Forest Service, Madison, Wis., has just issued
a chart which impresses certain rules about glueing.
The commandments are:
"In the thousand years or more that animal glues
have been used, four misleading commandments have
been evolved, and with one exception too frequently
kept and sworn by to the present day: (1) Cook
your glue as hard and as long as you can; (2) have
your wood piping hot; (3) rush it into the press; and
(4) squeeze it as hard as you can. These were the
commandments. It is now well known that glue
should never be heated above a temperature of 150°
F. and that after melting, heating is continued only
to keep it at a working consistency. It is also true
that a blind adherence to any one or all of the other
principles will result in many starved joints and the
spoiling of much good joint work. Reliable infor-
mation on practical glue problems is made available
by the Forest Products Laboratory of the U. S. For-
est Service by publications and instructional courses."

Wm. H. Nolan, who recently purchased Carroll's

"You will receive free each month a book about
music, singers, new records.
"These booklets are valuable—so will be mailed
each month only to you who return this card. You
will find the card already stamped for your con-
venience—just drop it in the box today.
"You may be interested to know the 'Carrolls'
whose business I just purchased tell me that it was
through the friendship and patronage of such people
as you that this delightful store was made possible.
"You will still find the same sincere efforts to con-
tinue the excellent Victrola Service—and my inter-
est in your Victrola will be just as though I sold it
to you personally. So feel free to call upon me for
any help I can give in aiding you to get the greatest
amount of happiness from the musical instrument
you possess.
"Your prompt return of this card is important.
"And if you will suggest the name or names of
some people who do not possess a Victrola—I will
indeed appreciate your courtesy. Thanks!
"Cordialy yours."
