Even the story credited to David Belasco re-
garding a new use for cement will not greatly
surprise the advocates Of that material for
there seems to be another employment discov-
cred every day for It in the form OF concrete.
According to Mr.. Belasco, when a reporter he
was once assigned to spend a couple OF days
with band OF tramps in order TO write story
about tramp life.
"These tranps," said he, were a merry lot.
Each had as many stories to tell as the end man
Of a minstrel show. One Of them said that
friend OF his one cold day in January knocked
at the kitchen door Of a farmhouse.

Yes, ma'am,' replied the tramp in a respect

be kind enough to give me the recipe for that
mince pie what had here yesterday
"WeT, the ideal! cried the farmers wife
Land sakes. man. what do you want that recipe
for?'
Ito settle bet replied the tramp. My
pardner says you use three cups Of Portland
cement to one of molasses, but claim it's only

in which it could be baked now made from

Many persons believe that concrete will solve
the problem Of the suburbanite and the farmer
whose buildings are inadequately protected from
fire Until the possibilities of concrete were dis
covered recently there seemed to be no way
to provide the country dweller with fireproof
house except at relatively great cost 1t has
been found possible since the price of timber has
gone up TO construct houses with concrete walls
at a less cost than If they had been Of wood.

about 5000 less than it would have cost If the
