In conclusion | would say that while
the analysis has not been entirely COM
pleted, it seems proper to add that the
structure is a very ornamental one
and that the design has the usual fac
tors of safety and conforms to good
engineering practice. While no guaran-
tee can be given of this structure or
of any structure, that it will stand a
given period or that wholly unexpect-
ed conditions will not arise, neverthe-
less this structure will be stronger as
time goes ON because the deposit of
silt on the upstream side will prevent
the possibility of seepage and will re-
duce the total pressure against the
dam.

change to Postum, and quickly her
