SCH \M The sketch shows a type of waste storage can for cleanand soiled waste that is discarded, but can be of furtheruse about shops for building fires or cleaning dirty machineparts. This receptacle is fireproof, and is so constructedthat it cannot be left open. It is intended for use in engine. Storage Can for Waste rooms, paint shops,- etc., and will prove valuable wherevergasolene is used. It is opened by a series of levers and rodsby foot power.

An apprentice should be taught the importance of to b-nical knowledge from the moment he starts to learn a sharpens his mind and makes him think, and also hasthe effect of increasing his confidence when he finds that thetheories for many things are so simple. Many mechanicalblunders are made and carried through to a finish from lackof theoretical knowledge. A suggestion to make in behalf of the apprentice wouldbe to have a sum of money awarded as a prize for the highestpercentage received. Also special training should be givenstudents free of charge with opportunity to have time allowedfor it when they show exceptional ability. This would bean incentive to strive toward higher positions. The responsibility for the kind of mechanic turned out
