Another activity of this hranch of the Laboratories' work is tiie preparation of sets of authentic specimens of C"anadian woods, 'riioc are intended for distrihuticn to manual trainin- and technical sciiools and other similar institutions. Why Scientific Research is Essential Now that tlu.' war is over, and nuMubers of the staff of the labor atories, who have been away in their country's service on military duty, are returning from overseas, it is hoped that it will be pos- sible to resume investigative work on a much more extensive scale than ever before. That scientific research is essetnial to industry is one of the lessons learned during the recent conflict, and the lumber and other wood-using industries arc no exception to this rule. It is a certainty that the savings resulting from industrial re- -carch will represent an amount the interest on which will repay the lal'oratory expenses many times o\'er. The larger an industrial research lal)or;itory becomes the more rapii lv its rate of efficiency increases and no one can deny the press- ing need for study of natural resources in this country. It is hoped that the Federal Government will not overlook the needs of Cana- woo((-using industries in this regard, and that jjrovision will be made for an adequate research
