Light has just been thrown upon
this question by tests of reinforced

In Chicago, and witnessed by many
well known engineers and experts OF
the Chicago building department
The tests were conducted with a
number of columns made from con.
crete mixed according to standard
specifications. Each of the columns
were subjected for three hours to
a temperature averaging 1. 600 deg.F
AT the end OF that time. under load
tests. 1t was found that the columns
had lost more than 10 per cent. oil

Various lengths which had been
cut from the columns before they

DR.. Matthews was convicted Marcel,

may be easily confused by learning .

stock joke dear TO the hearts OF nil

illctcd upon n beginner in the first act
OF "Richard ILL.," II is in the scene
where the coffin Of Henry VI Is borne
across the stage. One OF the men who
carry it Inns been raised from the posi-
ton Of supernumcrary TO his first
speaking part. which consists OF sim

usual for some older actor to take him
aside and impress him with the enor-

give that TO the audience on the first
