Modern chemistry has devised a material that makes better brush bristles. It's called nylon monofilament, and when compared with animal and vegetable brush bristles it's a treirndous step forward. ' Nylon monofilament is extruded from nylon polymer, a plastic produced by chemistry from coal, air and water. Nylon bristles are tough, highly resistant to water, chemicals, cleansers, abrasives; they will not split, fray or become brittle. That's why you'll find these bristles in use on many different types of brushes . . . brushes to clean the big guns, brushes for shell fuses, the myriad brushes used by modern industry. Chemistry has even developed tapered bristles for paint brushes. These, of course, are not as yet available for civilian use. More than likely,.your new topthbrush or hairbrush has nylon bristles. Of course, war needs have first call on present production of nylon monofilament bristles, but they are certainly "something to look forward to after the war". Nylon monofilament from the Plastics Division of C-l-L is another example of how Industrial Chemistry Is aiding Canada's war effort. CANADIAN INDUSTRIES LIMITED ors of these supporting letters are J.

THIS SPACE DONATED BY GORDON'S HARDWARE Fliers Can Get Hot Shower and Some of Comforts of Home By SAM JACKSON Associated Press Stall Writer AN AIRPORT IN THE CANADIAN NORTHWEST, April 30 0 Because you can get a hot shower here, and because there's quite a neat little group of buildings, this airfield has become known as "the country club of the Yukon." Its purpose Is a good deal grimrrpr. Tnrough here go the giant toomb-ers and transport planes of the Al aska wing of the United States Air Iransport Command, bound north west on mysterious missions that the pilots don't talk about. But every flier and every travel ler on the long Alaska road likes to stop here If he can. He doesn't have to unroll his sleeping bag because giant spruce timbers in a hot-air furnace keep the 'big bunk-i com warm all night. Like a good many installations in the northwest, the airport was built by Canadians with help from the Americans and although Canadian sovereignty is acknowledged the use of the field Is largely The first Americans flew In here only last June In a pontoon plane and 'anded on a, lake. They found only a radio shack and a half-com pleted airport building. Kapid Construction The building of the "country club" is anotheu epic of quick con struction. Some material was flown in but most of it, during the short northern summer, was landed from steamers on the Alaska coast, then transported by river boats up a lonely river to a trading post.J.60. miles na.itheast. From there to an isolated lake, a distance of 75 miles, was the sha dow oof an old road of gold mining days and this was repaired at an expense of $19,000. On the lake a fleet of barges was constructed from local .timber at a cost of about $250,000. They carried many tons of freight each, and could cross the lake and go up another river to within 25 miles of this new airdrome. For I hat last stretch, a regular road was constructed. J. D. Smith, resident engineer for the Canadian government, took an artistic pride in his buildings and went far afield to get good-looking logs which were slabbed for the exteriors. Freight brought by the river-lake route today costs $23650 a ton, from Vancouver. Lieut. R. W. Love, commanding officer, always has cots and food ready for visitors because of the great uncertainty of the Yukon weather. The rates are 50 cents for a bed and 50 cents a meal the lat. ter being served in the rough-and- Hon.

Wey-burn Returned to Victoria TORONTO, April 30 Today "Posh" Is. on board a Canadian National train speeding to his original master, nine-year-old Joan Colby of Victoria. The black and white Cocker Spaniel, a survivor of H.MC.S. Weyburn, torpedoed In the Mediterranean recently, was placed in charge of the Canadian National Express here on the last leg of his long Journey home where he will arrive Sunday. While travelling alone, the distinguished "sailor" will not be neglected as a plentiful supply of canine delicacies accompanied him and in structions were Issued to all express employees enroute that he was to receiye special attention during the trip to the coast. The popular mascot of the cor vett which went down with his master, Commander Thomas Gol- by, standing on the bridge, "Posh" was a real member of the crew. Each day he would make a thor ough inspection of the Weyburn following which he would go to the bridge and stand with Commander Golby. The received his unusual name from Joan, only child of Commander Golby, because of his small size and sweet temper. She didntt like to see him go to sea but knew he was In good hands on the Weyburn. Joan will be one of the hap piest girls in the dominion when they meet and she can romp with him once more. While In Toronto, almost a week, Posh" was not Idle for he has been doing rils bit for Canada, together with members of the crew who brought him home, helping to boost the sale of bonds by appearing at Fourth Victory loan rallies. Gasoline, for the rare civilian cus tomer, costs $2.85 a gallon. Canadian Barracks The Canadians have their own barracks and dining hall and eat with considerably more decor urn, You sit dowtuat the sound of a bell, talk softly or not at all, and do not smoke at the table. Among the guests is a radio ex pert trying to figure out the occasional "blackouts" that occur in the North; a Catholic missionary who came into the wilderness long before he dreamed civilization would catch up with him; Sir Hubert Wllklns, the Arctic explorer, numerous fliers grounded for the time, and several mysterious civilians who revealed their mission only to the commanding officer. They call It the "Yukon country club" but in cross-section it Is more like ready style of any new-army camp. Grand Hotel.
