If you find that you can hear the watch ticking as well when Y0“ place it against the bone behind the ear, as when you place it directly over the ear, then it is likely that the cerum or wax in the ear has got hardened against the drum.

Now don't try to remove this wax in the old fashioned way by using a hair pin. This may irritate or even puncture the ear drum.

Your best plan is to see an ear specialist who will remove it safely in a few minutes. As this hardening of the wax may occur from time to time, it is possible that he mfly show you how to do it yourself.

The wax is first softened by put- ting a few drops of one part, hydro- gen peroxide to two parts warm water into the ear and leaving ft

Industrialists and British univer- sity graduatcs are now coming to- gethcr in a manner undrcamed of before the war. The proportion 0f these graduates entering business, which was only three per cent. in 1870, rose to 30 per cent, at the be- ginning of the century. At the pre- sent time it is at least 50 per cent. The university no longer frowns uD- on the factory as a place in which its graduates may cam a living, and the factory has ceased to think of graduates as fit only for the learned professions and statccraft. This change recalls the fight on this continent between advocates of vocational training and devotees of the old-time classical education. Statistics show that thousands of such British graduates are already holding big executive jobs or lesser key positions in the chemical in- dustry, engineering, the textile trade, oil production, shipping and railroading.
