A Meccano boy is the happiest boy in the world. His days are full of the fun and thrills he gets from his wonderful and fascinating Meccano hobby.
He is able to build working models of the world's engineering masterpiecen, and thus gain practical constructional ox- perience in a delightfully interesting
milaner.
Meccano is real engineering in mina- turo--all the parts are standardised and Interchangeable and can be used over and over again to make hundreds of different working models.
There are also Meccano Motor Car Outfits which enable perfect models of sports and speed cars to be built and Meccano Aeroplane Outfits with which you can make realistic models of different types of aircraft.

IF you want to make the world a brighter place, wear

This is the advice of the veteran scientist Professor. Henry E. Armstrong, who is 87 and who was elected to the Royal Society nearly 60 years ago.

Sir Alan Anderson was speaking at the annual meeting of the Orient Steam Navigation Co. in London.
Subsidised foreign competition, he aald, would secure for the Amer can lines a monopoly of the Pacific route to Australia unless the British Empire sustained the old-establish- ed British lines on the Pacific.
The British lines were not being driven off the sea by their own failure. They were not asking for a subsidy to shelter or condone in- efficiency, but no private parse could compete against the concentrated wealth of a great nation.

Sir Alan added that the "third cines" was out of date for ships, and denoted conditions which were also out of date. Third class passengers, who for more than 50 yenra were auch important custom- era, had now practically ceased to travel to Australia.

Scouts Drop The colour
Swastika
The swastika, symbol of light, life and glory, symbol, also, of Nazi Germany, is to be dropped from two badges used by the British Boy Scout movement.
One is the Thanks badge, awarded in recognition of service to Scouts and Scout- ing; the other in the Medal of Merit, a comparatively rare distinction.
"The decision was made by the council of the Boy Scouts' Association," official, explained. "It is es- sential that nothing should be worn by Scouts to which objection might be taken. There are no politics in our movement; it embraces all creeds."
