AS to Concrete.
Now q word about concrete, cement
construction. Two thousand years ago,
to be exact, 27 B. c., M. Sipsan1ue
Aguippa erected the Pantheon, temple
honor Of Mars and Venus. Today 1t is
known as the Church of Santa Mana
Rotopda and is used as burial place
for great Italians. Covering this an
cient temple is a hemispherical cement
concrete dome spanning 142 feet and
6 inches in the clear. This dome is as
good today as when built with but
wonderful monument in the world to
the strength and durability OF concrete
construction. It is in fact the first
piece of all concrete construction in
tho history Of tho world. The first
cemont made in the United States was
in 1923 and the place of manufacture
near Rosendale, N. Y. This was ny,
Rosendals cement. This cement was
building OF calcerous cemenr.
Why Cement Is Used.
Slaleed lime with enough extra water
to form a paste and an admlXture OF
sand to prevent shrinka"e and drying
constitutes as everyone knows tho lime
mortar which has been used since an.
cient times in laying up all brick and
stone masonry. The weak points OF
lime mortar are that the absorption OF
carbon dioxide goes on very slowly and
cannot proceed at all under water.
These DEFICIENCIES are responsible Tor
the enormous consumption OF cement as
it has been found in tearing down very
thick walls of considerable age that
the mortar in the interior was still un-
hardened, the carbon dioxide not hav-
ing been able TO penetrate to the IN
terror Now no foundation wall is laid
with lime mortar, cement mortar being
used, During the last twenty years
the use of cement has attained mar
yelous growth, surpassed only by coal,
with these,
About Terra Gotta.
This term, terra Gotta, as now COM
monty used includes those clay products
used for structural or decorative work
and which, owing to size or form can
not be moulded by machinery, but have
to be shaped by hand. The Dame terra
Gotta has, however, also been applied to
many burned clay busts, statuettes and
even vases made by the ancients, not
ably the Greeks, which, however, are
to be classed as earthenware pottery.
Terra Gotta is made from n mixture of
clays of refractory or emirefractory
character, they being used because of
their burning qualities and resist
ance to heat In burning. 1t is usually
pressed by hand in plaster moulds but
complicated shapes like those on the
Kearns building have to be modelled free
hand. Great care IS necessary in dry
ing and burning the ware in order to
prevent cracking and warping and
large designs, like those on the Kearns

Which Are You
Paying For?

NXIITHOUT question the
wv most important and
the best investment q
man of family can and
SHOULD make in a city where
he expects to live, is securing a
HOME of his own,
All right thinking men and
women desire home and are
few, indeed, thss would not pro-
fer to be owner, rather than tenl
ants. 1T rs A WORTHY STEP
TO TAKE and it is easy to &C
complish.
In the purchase OF home
there are two distinct questions
to be carefully considered; l.
The Home as place of residence,
2-The Home as an investment.
We wish TO impress this one i'm
portant fact upon all intending
home builders: That it is not
enough merely TO buy real es-
tate, YOU must BUY TT IN THE
RIGHT PLACE, and we say that
the right place is In the well es-
tahlished sections of the city.
We believe that we have one
of the best equipped Home Build
ing organizations in the city, and
we say without fear of contra
diction that a Home built by
our construction department, un-
der our personal supervision, is q
well built. modern Home.
