a mixture of Portland cement, sand and gravel. They are sxsx2o inches, and each block has SX6 hole in it. In building a house the blocks arc so ar ranged that each one fits above the other and upon completion the walls of the house have a Sx6 air chamber from top to bottom. The bottom block is opened into the cellar and the top one opens through the side: thus a draft is established and in summer time the cool air under the house drifts through these many ventilating shafts and the walls are thereby kept cool. The op- pOsite is the result in winter and it can hc readily seen that the cement block house is almost model one. be- ing cool in summer and warm in win ter. Aside from this fact, they are absolutely fireproof and almost ever lasting MT. Watson quotes from gov ernment tests in the matter of sub stantibility of the material. These tests show that blocks a few weeks old sIand a pressure of some thirty tons. Blocks a few months old stand a pres sure of sixty tons and the older the blocks get the stronger and more sub stantial they become. It is the same way with a building and once it is completed in good shape. it is there to stay for years to come.
 In this country the item of expense in the building of anything is a matter that receives a great deal of consider ation. IL is said that figures will prove a cement block house cheaper than either brick or frame and of the durability of one. there can be little doubt. As yet, 1t is a little early to say just what appearance the new house will make, but judging from the indications and the looks of the blocks such a structure will be neat and at tractive.
 Since commencing work here, MT. Watson has discovered that there is demand for the blocks for other than building purposes. A south side ranch CT conceived the idea that they would make good material for headgates. Te investigated and it was shown that the expense would be a trifle less, and a headgate once properly put in, would last for years and years, while one of wood is subject to more or less decay. As a consequence something like thousand of the blocks have been de- voted to this purpose alone within the last few weeks. Others are becoming interested in the matter and it looks as if MT. Watson will have a perma- nent occupation on his hands for some time to come.

10 THE DAM BY MOTOR.

< Earl Brown and F. W. Griffen left yesterday afternoon for Roosevelt and the dam site. They are taking advant- age of the holiday and expect to return in time for Thanksgiving dinner this evening. That sounds almost impos- s!ble, but nevertheless, they expect to do so. and to spend the better part of this morning looking over the work at the dam. The explanation is that the trip Is being made by motor cycle and in such cases time is not considered. tBarring accidents). A record of four hours and twenty-five minutes from Phoenix has been made by a motor cyclist, but it is not tine intention of the gentlemen mentioned to try and break any records. The trip Is merely one of pleasure. and plenty of time will be taken to look at the sights and en- joy the scenery en route.

THANKSGIVING DAY.

You can see what's coming. and you don't have to guess who's going to get the best of it, either. With cloths it's different. We're getting lots of men ready for winter; the difference is that both sides of the transaction get the best of it.
 Every time We sell a man a Hart, Schaffner and Marx Suit we make a profit and a friend: he gets a bigger profit and cause for thanksgiving that will last great deal longer than the best dinner he'll ever have.
 If you buy clothes you're foolish to accept anything less when you can get Hart, Schaffner and Marx clothes: all wool, perfect tailoring. correct style; and fit guaranteed.
 Plenty of other good things, too: Underwear, such as you want for win ter, Shirts, Hosiery. Gloves, Hats and Mems Wear generally.
