Making Experiments There.

The department of Engineer
ing of the University of Oregon
has begun series of exhaustive
tests on the strength and imper-
meabillty of concrete for building
purposes aud for the construction
of dams and reservoirs. The ordi-
nary water proof concrete is
mixed in the propottion of one
part of cement to two parts OF
sand and four of stone. If
through eiectpo1ytic action, in
duced by the addition of a small
percentage of clay, alum, or
other agents, the approximate
proportion can be changed to the
ration of one to three to six, it
can easily be seen that large
saving can be made in the cost of
materials since the cement is the
expensive part of the wall.
Certain experiments already
made have tended to show that
! concrete so mixed has both
greater strength and greater i'm
permeability. To determine
whether or not this is true, some
three or four hundred tests will
be made, extending through the
year, with varying definite
amounts of electpolytic agents
added. Each sample will be sub.
mitted to a water pressure test Of
from forty to one hundred pounds
to the square inch, in addition te
the regular compression tests.
The department of chemistry is
cooperating, and the nos'
thorough work possible will be
ldone. c. A. McLain and ]. w.

Where old memories come thronging

And we dream we hear them calling IN

Thus our eVer-lessening circle misses

Whose glad tones in past reunions
made our loving hearts rejoice;
And our hands are cropping vainly for
the once familiar clasp
OF the cherished friends who met us
with a warm and kindly grasp.
Some day one alone will linger on
Times narrow cloud-yeiled shore.
In one heart alone will echo voices or

long-gone heroic days
When on heights Of life supernal cen
the vanquished wore the bays.

On the dim past's lost horizon that
proud Nation of our dream
In transcendent splendor rising for one
loyal soul shall CLEAN.
One will be the last to linger, clasping
hands with shadows dim,
AS tho western sun drops downward
meath the far horizons rim.
or the comrades of the Southland
which fond heart will be the last
That will hold in tender reverence sa-
cred memories OF the past?
What lone spirit thrill with echoes OF
the songs ,wo used to sing,
AS with hope and faith we waited for
the triumph Time should bring.
Who will hear with ileaping pulses that
melodious refrain
That rang out to greet our banner with
It's wild tumultuous strain?
AS our band grows smaller-smullo OF

AS new graves are sadly counted that

When the last Confederate Comradt
Will have passed from time away

TO tho ring Of Southern music and thu

| And tho Stars and Bars shall sadl,
droop above the lowly grave
