THE IMPORTANCE OF

SCIENCE..

HONGKONG - STOCK

EXCHANGE,

The value of science became so | HONGKONG, 18) NOVEMBER, 181*.. obvious under war conditions, that

-the establishment of the Committee for Scientific and Industrial Research and its endowment with 1,000,000/ met with little or no opposition. It was recognised practically univer sally that the masters of words, BOL as it has been the main aim of our traditional system of secondary education to produce, must ́give | way to the creators of ideas, and the official whose principal qualification lay in his ability to write a readable report on any given sub- ject, had to surrender the direction of whole fields of endeavour to others. whose literary style might possibly be at fault, but who were endowed with insight and imagination.

Ruskini, master of English prose as 'he was, would have proved a poor sub stitute for men like Sir Herbert Jackson, who gave such effective help towards the solution of the problem of supply. ing the insistent military demand for varieties of glass previously obtained from Germany, or for those who gave us the Stokes gun or the tank, which in both cases were only forced on the departments concerned by extraordinary persistency and per tinacity.

The war is over, and the Ruskin school which holds with Plato and Socrates that truth can be reached by a priori reasoning unchecked by observation or experiment, is still numerically very strong, and quite naturally includes a very large proportion of our journalists and public men. There is therefore some danger that a strongly backed movement may arise urging the abolition, or more probably starva- tion, of the Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, as one step towards that drastic reduction in our national expenditure which all-par- ties

essential it are agreed is bankruptcy is to be avoided.- Engineering..

not appreciated until it asserts itself through long continued. trouble-free performance.

The gauge to this service is the mileage total recorded when the casing finally is discarded.

The notable achievement of nine stock tires which, put to official finish test by the Automobile Club of America, averaged 6,700 miles, definitely established the un- usua quality of Vacuum Cup Tires.

&

The rainy day certified teat of the Pitta- burgh Taxicab Company in which heavy car equipped with Vacuum Cup Tires was driven around a wet corner at 25 miles an hour without skidding—

conclusively proved the guaranteed ability of the Vacuum Cup tread to resist skid- ding on wet, slippery pavements, de data t In addition to this proved driving safety and the mileage guarantee per warranty tag-of 6,000 miles, Vacuum Cup Tires are reasonably priced. They cost approxi- mately the same as ordinary 3,500 mile tires, and much less than other makes carrying equal mileage surety.
