The Way We Glue At Christmas

Christmas giving has grown in materiasm and volume
until to millions of people it has ceased to be pleasure
and become burden.
The season has become the time when take annual
inventory of fortunes and determine what Injuries
afford Under thin cloak of charity seek
a world Of selfish vanity.
The buying of Christmas gifts has become the great
financial strain of the year In the tumble and scramble
OF the shops forget the real sweet sacred meaning of
the season.
1t is the idea that Christmas gift to express
proper feeling must be 'respectabe and this is regard
edjas synonymous with costly The average Christmas gift
involves expense that the gver cannot well afford for
the sake of something the recipient does not want.
So Christmas gifts the enderest tokens saved to
from Paradise, have to be without meaning except
cold barter and exchange, in which both parties
lose much and gain little
Worse STILL very, very many of instead of making
the Christmas time for special charities kindness,
and even duties neglected all through the year.
The father has held back until Christmas the skates
sled that the boy might have enjoyed for weeks before
The mother reserves for the Christmas tree the dolly that
the little girls heart has yearned for for months Even
family necessities often long delayed for Christmas.
What suffering from is barrenness of the true
Christmas spirit We still bring the gold to the festival
but forget the frankncense and myrrh.
And kle gold we bring only as to market place-to
eXcha - it.

DDS of the Hassam Paving COM
pany, it appears to me opportune
to ask, Why is it that Spokane gets
the doubtful benefit of this kind
of paving? In view of the fact that
experience everywhere learned,
that cement as wearing surface
is not suited to horse traffic and
heavy traffic of any nature other
than that capable of being carried
upon resilient tires; why is it that
we do not wait couple of years
at least and see with our own eyes
how that pavement holds out on
streets where 1t las been applied?
Many property holder on Boone
avenue, west of Monroe. is at the
present induced TO sign a petition
circulated by the agents of said
company, trusting their statement
that it costs so little.
If it is true, what l stated above
out of my own experience as a
large paving contractor in the old
country, and experts such. as Pre-
vost Hubbard of the office of public
roads, U. S. department of agricul-
ture, and J. Walker Smith, late
city engineer of Edinburgh, Scot
land, bear me out in this conten-
ton, that cement is not fit as a
wearing surface for horse traffic.
then it looks like the height OF
folly to put in such pavement
just because it is cheap. Would 1t
not be wiser policy to wait couple
of years and see what results are

CEMENT CONSTRUCTION.
A Valuable Work On This Subject by a
Belfast Author.


Belfast Author.
Mr.. and Mrs. j. G. Paul of this city recently
received from their son, Professor Charles E..
Paul of the University of Chicago, hand
some volume of 339 pages, of which he is the
author The book treats of cement construc-
ton and is made up of extracts from Volumes
VI and VII of Radford's Cyclopeda of Con-
struction, to which Prof. Paul has contributed
on other subjects. The book is profusely illus
trated with full page pictures diagrams, etc.
The chapter headings convey good idea OF
the broad scope of the volume and are as fol-
lows: Plain Cement Construction, Concrete on
the Farm, Sidewalk Construction, Reinforced
Concrete Construction, Reinforcing Materials
and Systems, General Building Construction,
Concrete Fireproof Construction, Concrete
Bridges and Culverts, Reinforcing Concrete
Retaining Walls, Representative Concrete
Structures, Miscellaneous Applications. The
history of concrete ard its use in various
forms is clearly and concisely given, with &C
companying illustrations. Of the Portland
cement industry it is said: I'm the twenty
years following the exposition of the prln-
ciples of reinforced concrete design by Ernest
/. Ransome in 1885 the production Of Portland
cement in the United States rose from 10000
to 100000 barrels per year. In the years
following 1897, when the building trades We're
temporarily hampered by shortage in struc-
tural steel, the use of reinforced concrete had
gained such popularity that the output of
Portland cement was raised from 100000 bar
rels in 1895 to 9,4O0, 900 barrels in 1900" In
enumerating the chief advantages of rein
forced concrete the author says: Reinforced
concrete's low first cost has led to its use in
preference to masonry and steel construction
While wood structures are cheaper than con-
crete, the latter are to be preferred on ac-
count of their superior ire-proof qualities ard
their freedom from decay caused by rot and
the attacks of vermin and insects Fire in
surance rates for reinforced concrete buildings
about half those for wooden buildings of
the type known as SLOW burning mill con-
struction.' The cost of repairs is much less,
and no painting is required to preserve con-
crete structures subjected to ordinary usage.
Concrete structures may be erected with
buildings have been erected in the time ordi-
narily taken to design and form into whole
the structural metal work for a similar build
ing in STEEL
These extracts, and the chapter headings,
will give some idea, but an inadequate one, of
the value of this work. There iliustra-
tions of finished and unfinished structures
and every detail is shown in drawings accom-
panying the descriptive test. AS handbook
on cement construction it covers the ground
thoroughly. This, however, is the only copy
of the work in this form. It was printed and
handsomely bound Christmas gift from
the author to his parents. The matter it con-
tans is, as above stated, included in Radford's
Cyclopedia, which costs Sloo set and which
has had large sale.
