It gives him small comfort, then, to be informed that there are in this country manufacturing plants where the abrasive stuff is turned out by the acre, where miles of the material. In the making, are run through automatic machines and, further, that the growing uses for sandpaper in all sorts of industries are steadily increasing its outsuper-power- ed put Most sandpaper Is not paper, and sand is not the scratchy stuff which makes It useful, but the material always will be known as sandpaper. "Sandpaper has ceased to be mere grains of sand glued to paper and has become a tool with thousands of cutting edges," D. H. of New York says in a report to the American Chemical society. "Variations of as much as 1,000 per cent in the usefulness of sandpaper Kil-lefl- were formerly common. Today myriads of tiny cutting edges, arranged and held in orderly array, cut surfaces instead of wearing down surfaces by mere friction. "Literally millions of dollars' worth of sandpaper are consumed annually In scores of different Industries. Production of such widely different articles as fine furniture and felt hats, automobiles and airplanes, shoes snd steel specimens, machine work and marbles, gem stones and golf clubs, consume screagea of coated abrasives. Much of the product designated as sandpaper is not made with paper and a minimum proportion of it uses sand. In the sense of silicon dioxide, as an abrasive. "Some S.000 varieties of coated abrasives are required to meet the needs of users, and each must be accurately fitted to certain specific requirements. Above all, each of the three thousand must be made with the greatest possible uniformity and at a unit price that must be kept down. The most important development in this industry has been the process of securing uniformity in distribution and position of abrasive particles on the sheet by using an electric field.
