November 26, 1926 The Artisan 5 Exploration of Life is Purpose of Club's Activities In the last issue we told you of ihc merit system of the Exploration Club. We will now tell about its activities. The purpose of the Exploration Club i' t« explore life, to set our goal and to make a plan so that we niay be able tv attain our goal. The dub enters into sports, indoor games, dramatics, and various lines of school activities. The boys do woodwork and plaster work, such as making pictures, jewel boxes, and table lamps. One of the latest things the club has undertaken is dramatics. In the later part of 1925 Mr. Bratton wrote the play “The Enchanted Isle”. The boys immed- iately started practising on it. They secured the help of Miss Bonstcllc and her staff in putting on the play. The play was put on at the Bon- stcllc playhouse with much success. Through the above and other activities the club is helping to make a bigger and better school and create a better understanding with the faculty. The requirements for mem- bership arc that a boy must be between the ages of 14 and 17, and have an average of “B” in hi9 school work. A new member is required to stay on probation for two months, after which time, if he has proven himself satisfactory, he is voted in, and given the first degree. The Club has four degrees (and we will remark that there is no play in them). Any boy who thinks he can fill the above requirements is invited to join. Call is Sounded for Basket Ball Players Mr. Crawford, and his assistants, Mr. Cragg and Mr. Shafer, are still urging fellows to report for basket ball practice. Boys that have had any or no experience are requested to attend practice in the Ford School gym. More real live players are needed to come out and build a real team. The coach wants the older fel- lows to report for practice. There is no position on the quintet cinched, so everybody has as good a chance as the other. They are having light practice now and will gradually work up to harder. So everybody come out for practice at the Ford gym from 4 to 6 each night. Show your school spirit by telling others to report. This $7 fountain pen you sold me for 99 cents leaks. Ah, yes, you need one of our pat- ented rubber writing gloves. 35 cents, please. SALVAGED SCRAP So’s Our Team Referee: (Blowing whistle). “Foul.” Spectator: “Where are the feathers?” Referee: “Ain’t any, this is a picked team.” Paternal Style “Now, my little man,” said the barber to a youngster in the bar- ber's chair, “how do you want your hair cut?” “With a hole in the top, like dad’s,” was the reply. Origin of Words “How did there come to be so many words in the world?” asked little Lola, who was turning the leaves of a dictionary. “Oh,” replied her thirteen year old brother, “they came through folks quarreling. One word brought on another.” Only On “What are the three rules of success?” “Three? There’s only one.” “What is it?” “Make good.” Customer: “You’re sure one bot- tle will cure a cold?” Assistant: “It must do, sir—no- body's ever come back for a sec- ond.” Cartoonist Contest (Continued from Page 1) These comics may be in the form of a strip or on just a single plate and to be put on a certain grade of paper furnished by the Artisan available at the school store at some date in the near future. This contest will be conducted by a professional cartoonist now em- ployed in the photographic depart- ment. or by an editor of the “Ar- tisan” and he will judge the comics for originality, hqmor, quality of suggestiveness and other desirable qualities in a comic strip or plate. A very important item must be kept in mind, i. e., the cartoons must be turned in one week prior to publication. Of course, last but not least is the subjects of awards given by the “Artisan” for the three best cartoons. Cash prizes are as follows: 1st prize $5.00 2nd prize ........... 3.00 3rd prize ............ 2.00 This editorial is merely a warn- ing and an invitation to the stud- ent body to share the honors of the editorial staff and we hope the re- sponse of the Artisans to this plea will he a great one so that the school paper will be able to offer a ‘‘big kick” in this line of work. There will be more regarding this subject in the next issue so in the mean time “jar” your memory for some funny incident or dust off your imagination, whet down the old graphite and show the organization what you, as an individual can do. Remember the pen is mightier than the sword. •■i itiiiti:iiiiaiiaiiaiiiiiiiia iiiiaiiiiia!iiiiaiiaiii!iit( itiniiii' iiiii i a i um i m i ian:iii h i '■ • ■ ■n I Ford Trade School 1 1 Students m | A discount on all athletic | goods a» well as tools you § a may need if you are a stud- = 2 ent of the Trade School. - | Just get a card from your g f Mr. Edwards. ; I LARGEST ATHLETIC OUT-1 I FITTERS IN THE STATE.- i ALSO A COMPLETE LINE OF’ I MECHANICS TOOLS. 1 lam!Tereu I 335 Gratiot Are.

4 The Artisan November 26, 926 Polar Bear Reserves Defeated bv T. S. j Reserves 6-0 Second Team Displays Artisan Spirit Playing in a sea of mud our Trade School Reserves emerged victors by a lone touchdown over the Highland Park High School Reserves, 6-0, at Thompson Field, Monday, November 15. The Artisans proved themselves the better mud toters, and were al- ways in the aggressive, forcing the ball into Polar Bear” territory at all times. Our Reserves scored their lone touchdown in the first quarter. An exchange of punts gave the Trade School possession of the ball on the Highland Park 36 yard line. A cr'ss cross, Walek to Pope, placed the oval on the Bear” 6 yard line. An offtackle plunge by Walek, and another thrust at the opposite tackle by Pope, carried the pigskin over. Several times another score seemed certain but the breaks of the game intervened to stop the attempts of the Artisan Reserves. The running of Pope and Walek on short end runs, and their dash- ing on offtackle plays, featured the offense of the Artisan Reserves. The defensive work of the team also stood out. II F.T. S. Res.

In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced nor cried aloud. Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed. Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the horror of the shade. And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid. It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll, I am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soul. William Ernest Henley (1847-1903).

Lunch Room Moved to New Location in r A ' Building The new lunchroom, under the management of Mr. Edel, is stead- ily becoming a reality. It is sit- uated in the “A” building on the fourth floor, bays 36-40, making it possible to seat approx:mately 700 boys, an increase of 200 over the seating capacity of the present lunchroom. As the side walls of the lunch- room are practically all windows, there will be much more light. This also provides a better ventilation system. There will be a nine foot aisle running through the center of the room, and more space between the tables than in the present lunchroom. Students will be able to get seated sooner and will be much more comfortable. Boys Urged to See Educational Film Boys in Metallurgy are advised to see if possible, the great film, “Men of Steel” in which Milton Sills stars as the leading man. The Metallagraphic Department is becoming a place of importance in its relation to the plant in the submitting and settlement of Met- allurgical doubts on many steel and non-ferrous products that some- times cause trouble and can only be settled under the microscope by observing its micro-structure and consequent properties. The well directed and maintained laboratories of the Trade School are a source of great interest and wonder to the visitors that tour the school daily. New Department Is Organized (Continued from Page 1) Henry Ford Trade School. The foreman take time to explain every- thing to the boys. Perhaps Sani- tation will be an exception, for out- side of general instructions, direct contact with the duties will teach the boys sufficiently the practical side of the subject. Let all critics of this department remember that Cleanliness is next to godliness.” FELL OW WORKERS OF 1 TH E FORD TR A DE I SCHOOL WISH TO EX- 3 TEND THEI R HEART- 1 FELT SYMPATHIES TO 1 JOHN FRENCH AT HIS 1 BEREAVEMENT BY HIS § WIFE’S DEATH. • i i ■ i i i i i i i i i i i i j THE TOOL SHOP HARDWARE CO.

(Leii cwi November 26, 1926 FOUNDRY NOTES To most of the boys the sand in the foundry is just plain sand. They do not realize that because of its importance this sand must be care- fully selected, and to do this, much experience is required. The mould- ing sand used conies chiefly from along lakes and rivers, the princi- pal sources being Albany, New York, Hudson River, Sandusky, Ohio, and Ottawa, Canada. Moulding sand must possess cer- tain properties. When properly moistened and rammed it must be cohesive enough to withstand hand- ling. It must be tough enougt to allow the metal to run over it and not cut it, also refractory enough to withstand the heat of melted cast iron, 2500 degrees F. It must also be porous enough to allow gases and steam to escape. A good sand will bake a little under heat. Moulding sand should consist of from 80 to 90 per cent silica (SiOz), 10 to 20 per cent of clay, with a small amount of lime, magnesia and metallic oxide. Sand should be spread out and sprinkled so that the moisture will penetrate evenly through the sand. Mixing the sand with shovel or machinery unifies the moisture and tends to equalize any difference in sand quality. The hand test is the oftenest used, and a foundry man can tell very well the fitness of the sand by the way it leaves the fingers and 6ticks together. Sand weakens by daily use. The clay or binder burns out. Good sand should have sharp edge grains, but these become rounded by use, causing poor co- hesion. New sand added to worn out sand rejuvenates it and makes it fit for continued use; in fact, old sand maintained in this way makes better and smoother castings than new sand. There is no essential difference in the sand used for brass and iron moulding. For-steel, the silica con- tent must be higher. It should be about 98 per cent in order for the 6and to be refractory enough to resist the intense heat of the metal. The smoothness of the casting depends largely upon the size of the grain of sand used. A smaller grain sand is used for finer work. Core sand is selected the same as moulding sand. The composi- tion of the core sand used in our foundry is 30 qts. of lake sand, 30 qts. of river sand, 1 qt of linseed oil, which acts as binder, and V 2 qts. of cordex. AN AWFUL THOUGHT When the golden sun is sinking And my mind from care is free, Comes a thought that sets me think- ing Of tomorrow’s geometry. ERVIN POPE. Tool Exhibition Shown Students in Shop Talks Dept. Interesting Micrometer Gauges Among Starrett Tools An exhibition of Starrett tools has been received by the Henry Ford Trade School, and is now being shown in the Shop Talks depart- ment. Some of the more interesting of the tools on exhibit are the United States Micrometer Caliper Gauges, which were designed to meet the requirements of the government. A queer tool in the display is the Inspectors Micrometer Caliper Gauge. Among other interesting tools or devices are the Toolmakers Buttons, used for jig and die work, and a pin vise which may hold a victrola needle and is used as a scriber. The Trade School is very thank- ful to Mr. Findlay and Mr. Leidey, the representatives of the Starrett Company, who gave us the oppor- tunity to display these tools. The Trade School, at various times, has also displayed Brown and Sharpe, Lufkin, and Slocum tools. iiimiii ystematic aving pells uccess You will appreciate these words a few years from now.
